Had a nice time, my friend was visiting from Taiwan and really enjoyed Sea Life. I've been to all of their venues in Australia and New Zealand and this one is definitely the smallest but I like the work they have done to refresh the experience but it only takes about an hour to get though. Worth a visit at least once.
