Kelly Tarlton's Sea Life Aquarium is located just a step away from the beautiful Mission Beach at Oaky Bay on the waterfront of Auckland, one of New Zealand’s largest cities. The aquarium is home to more than 30 exhibits with live animals set in their vivid, colorful natural habitat display.
The star of the show is Antarctic penguin colony exhibit, the largest such exhibit in the world. The penguins can be observed from special underwater viewing tunnels, or you can step on the ice to join them. Aquarium’s Animal Adventure exhibit allows visitors to come close to large sharks in the adrenaline-pumping Shark Cage. The aquarium was opened in 1985 and is created by New Zealand’s renowned marine archeologist Kelly Tarlton.
