What people are saying:
The aquarium is not big, and it's just one way to go, so I'm not afraid of getting lost. You can see the penguins swimming in the water at the beginning, and then the penguins on the ice, all kinds of cute and cute. recommend.

Introduction
Underwater passageways allow you to observe a huge variety of sea life in very large tanks. The large sharks, gliding stingrays and many species of fish found in New Zealand waters, are around you as the moving floor carries you. Antarctic Encounter features live penguins and a recreation of life on the great southern continent. You should allow up to two hours to fully appreciate these combined attractions. There is also a cafe and gift shop available.

Although the place is small, there are coral reefs and marine life full of colorful charm. There are more than 1,000 kinds of marine life, 16 kinds of special corals, and people feed sharks and other fish every day.
Amazing place to view sealife in a relatively natural environment
There are few better ways to spend a rainy day in Auckland than at the aquarium. Situated right on the water, overlooking the harbor, the aquarium houses over 30 animal exhibits. With everything from sharks, to octopus, to, of course, penguins (!), there's so much to see, making it the perfect family excursion. And if you are looking for something a little more adventurous, try the shark cage! You are placed in a cage in one of the underwater exhibits filed with blue sharks, letting you get really up close and personal with the fascinating creatures. Make sure to buy your tickets online in advance, as the prices are much less ($31 for a single admission online versus $39 at the door). If you are looking for a different way to spend your time in Auckland, the aquarium is a definite must!
Definitely a hit with the kids. It's the best NZ has to offer but not comparable to Sydney's aquarium or other global attractions
went there with mi son's school really enjoyed it, awsome!!!
In year 6 i went there for a field trip and i had a lot of fun so it's a good place to take family and friends from overseas specially if they are children.
