I didn't enjoy my visit as i thought it was boring. If we had the 4 y/o daughter with us I think I would of enjoyed it more by explaining things. Great place for kids, lots of educational info. Not for me

Very interesting, everything is clean and tidy, great for children.
The aquarium is nothing special, except for the feeding of the fish in a giant tank by two scuba divers.
Wonderful family activity in Napier City, Art Deco Quarter. Walk UNDER the marine life displayed in the National Aquarium of NZ. Like penguins? they're all here! a fun and reasonably priced outing for the whole family. Educational too. We loved our day spent at the National Aquarium. highly recommended.

does`nt matter how long you stay. Our son loves the shark feeding and diver who is very
entertaining. Well recommended by...

OK it's an aquarium, and a good one at that, but the star of the show for me was seeing real Kiwi in their natural habitat walking about having some grub. Top marks.
