National Aquarium of New Zealand, Public aquarium in Napier, New Zealand.
The National Aquarium features a 50-meter acrylic underwater tunnel where visitors can observe marine life swimming in a 1.5 million liter oceanarium.
Established in 1957 in the War Memorial Hall basement, the facility relocated to Marine Parade in 1976 and underwent an 8 million dollar renovation in 2002.
Monthly penguin awards recognize the behavior patterns of Little Penguins, connecting visitors with individual animal personalities through social media engagement.
The aquarium offers daily feeding sessions at specific times, including reef fish at 10:00 am and oceanarium diver hand-feeding at 2:00 pm.
Visitors can step into terrapin habitats during VIP encounters to learn about these freshwater turtles in their controlled environment.
