With Christmas closing in fast, what about buying a gift that keeps on giving?

Recently we had the opportunity to experience Sea Life Sydney Aquarium again, and thanks to our Merlin annual pass we’ll have plenty of opportunity to keep us busy over the next 12 months.

It’s been a while since we’ve been to Sea Life and I forgot how much fun it was. The boys loved finding all the weird and wonderful sea creatures, and while we zipped through the shark section fairly quickly, we did spend significant time at the new exhibit – A Day and Night on the Reef. A fabulous interactive attraction that both adults and kids loved! My favourite part had to be the ever changing colour of the hundreds of jelly fish, and the boys loved all the interactive sections particularly the walking on water area and making sure they saved the baby turtles by guiding them to the ocean.

As we had our annual passes, we didn’t have to pay for the new attraction as entry was already covered, so we got to see all the Sea Life creatures as well as the new exhibit – and I didn’t feel like I was out of pocket. For one more week you can save on the Merlin annual pass as it’s available for $65 per person for families (3+ people), and $89 for individuals.
