Kelly Tarlton's Underwater World

Full of Awesome!

Like seriously, an amazing place, I've never been so close to penguins (which was one of the many highlights), the stingray feeding show was very cool and the interactive displays were both interesting and fun.

I'm going to do up a video for this one, just way to many piccies... but here's a few.


The penguin area, which you ride a car on a track around the display, a few of them hooted while we where there, and loudly!


The Stingray Feeding Tank, the person feeding them had the rays pretty much swim over the top of her head in their eagerness to get to the food.


Walking through the fish in the tunnels, they were actually disused sewerage pipes, cleaned out, fixed up and sealed for their new use.


This is Fred... or at least I am calling him Fred, he is a beautiful specimen.
I don't know what Kelly Tarlton's calls him, but I don't think it's dinner.


These are Piranha's, gold, glittery, beautiful fish. Nothing like the way they are portrayed in movies and cartoons.

We enjoyed it so much we bought ourselves season passes. There is a lot to see and take in at Kelly Tarlton's, one visit really isn't quite enough for it.
