Sydney Aquarium and Oceanworld at Manly
A visit to Manly Oceanworld or Sydney Aquarium is a good lousy
weather activity. Having the sharks, manta rays and other large
beasties swim so close up is pretty 'cool'. Two options - Sydney
Aquarium at Darling Harbour or Manly Oceanworld surprisingly at
Manly. The Sydney Aquarium at Darling Harbour is the larger of the
two but Oceanworld at Manly is none-the-less impressive for its
smaller size. If you're really adventurous it is possible, at least
at Oceanworld, to go for a dive in the tank with the sharks!
.................rather you than me.
Visit either Sydney Aquarium or Oceanworld in Manly which ever
is the most convenient on the day and aim to be there during feeding
times (but not if you're planning a dip!). Feeding time at Oceanworld
is interesting as the giant Mantra Rays 'cuddle' the divers handing
out the fish. Click below for more information:
Behind the Sydney Acquarium you'll find some wild, wild life:
Sydney Wildlife World
There used to be a jocular myth about being able to see kangaroos
hopping down George Street, Sydney's main high street. The opening
of Sydney's new zoo - Sydney Wildlife World - has come close into
turning this poor old joke into a reality.
Sydney Wildlife World adds to the cage (sorry, zones) vs natural
environment dilemma. By placing Sydney’s latest Zoo in Darling
Harbour, walking distance from George street and the CBD the wildlife
really has come to town.
So should you go? Would you be missing out if you didn’t?
I guess it depends upon how much time do you have and how do you
like your Koala, nicely packaged or el natural.
