About

Your experience

Embark on an extraordinary journey into the sub-Antarctic world of SEA LIFE Melbourne Aquarium with the Penguin Passport. This unique experience puts you in the heart of the action, providing a rare opportunity to meet King and Gentoo penguins up close while exploring their carefully recreated habitat. Donning purpose-made snow gear, you'll step onto real ice and immerse yourself in an impressive behind the scenes adventure.
Begin your adventure with a seamless check-in at SEA LIFE Melbourne where your guide will equip you with all the gear you need for your encounter. Designed for small groups, this exclusive tour ensures a personal and engaging experience as you venture into the chilly penguin enclosure. No previous experience is needed—just bring socks and your sense of curiosity.

Entering the penguin habitat

With your guide leading the way, you'll walk into the remarkable sub-Antarctic exhibit. Here, King and Gentoo penguins waddle, slide and swim around you as you traverse the icy terrain. It's a rare chance to observe their natural behaviors and social patterns from within their world, far closer than the average visitor can. Keep your eyes open for SEA LIFE’s famous residents such as Pesto the King penguin chick.

Behind the scenes access

Gain fascinating insights into the daily life of these remarkable birds. Discover how their specialized habitat is maintained, visit food preparation areas and find out how the expert keepers ensure the health and happiness of the penguins. The guide will share fun facts and answer your questions along the way, deepening your understanding of penguin care and conservation.

All-day aquarium access

Your Penguin Passport includes all-day entry to SEA LIFE Melbourne Aquarium. After your icy encounter, explore the aquarium’s 12 themed zones—home to sharks, jellyfish, crocodiles and more. Interactive exhibits and daily presentations offer engaging experiences for all ages.

Small group setting

Each session accommodates only four guests with a professional guide, promising a tranquil, crowd-free environment. This intimacy enhances the overall experience and gives you plenty of time to ask questions and observe the penguins at your own pace.

  • Step into the penguins’ habitat and watch them up close on real ice
