The Australian Shark & Ray Centre

I took my nephews here to fill in a school curriculum day. We never got past the front door.
No one was at the desk /​reception area when we arrived. No bell for assistance, no signage explaining prices. A ghost town.
The place is an old skating rink. It’s run down, uncared for and certainly not coming off as the sort of «tourist attraction» that the website makes it out to be.
After literally having to yell «are you open» to a man in the distance, he came to help.
After a brief conversation I learned:
* Well were sort of open but the person who takes you around isn’t here, but if you wanna wait 10 minutes.
*Some of the tanks are closed but you’ll still get to see most of it.
* Yeah we only take cash
* There’s an ATM just up the road
The whole thing reeks of no one cares.
And they want good money for this, like $ 125.00 for a family ticket.
So my review isn’t really based on the experience I had there because they didn’t get my $ 125.
I decided against it based purely on what I was met with (or wasn’t met with) when I walked through the door.
Maybe check it out yourself, but I was enormously underwhelmed.
