Essentials about the SEA LIFE Sydney Aquarium in brief

If you want to learn about Australia’s marine life without getting in the water yourself and exposing yourself to the dangers of sharks and jellyfish, you should definitely stop by the SEA LIFE Sydney Aquarium. With more than 700 species and over 13,000 fish and other aquatic creatures, the Sydney Aquarium displays a very large cross-section of the inhabitants of all Australian waters. Located in the heart of the city center on the eastern shore of Darling Harbour, the aquarium is one of Sydney’s most popular attractions.

The fish and marine life in the SEA LIFE Sydney Aquarium

From sharks to stingrays and tropical fish to penguins, all the prominent representatives of the Australian aquatic world are represented in SEA LIFE. The aquarium has 14 special themed zones, such as the Discovery Rockpool and the Shark Walk. The main attraction of the aquarium is probably the Great Barrier Complex, the world’s largest oceanarium about the huge and massively endangered reef. Over 6,000 living creatures from the Great Barrier Reef can be seen up close.
