Marine Life Encounter at Cairns Aquarium

About
Get the most from your day at Cairns Aquarium with a marine life encounter!
Your guide will take you behind the scenes, so you can see how the aquarium cares for its marine creatures. Hand-feed the cownose sting rays their favourite food on a specially designed feeding platform. At the River Monsters exhibit, scatter-feed the giant freshwater rays and barramundi, followed by a visit to the Cairns Turtle Hospital to meet the sea turtles that Cairns Aquarium cares for.
