Our visit to the Aquarium was the highlight of our trip! We thoroughly enjoyed it and would recommend it to everyone visiting Napier.

Great experience with friends
Great outing for holidays. The aquarium offers interactive activities for children and it was awesome to watch the feeding session.

National Aquarium Napier
Napier Aquarium is a pleasant place, but we felt the experience was quite limited with only a small number of attractions. Unfortunately, the lift was not working during our visit, and there wasn’t a clearly designated space for breastfeeding or feeding parents, which would have been helpful for families with young children. Given the limited offerings, the ticket price felt a little high. With a few improvements, it could be a more family-friendly experience.
