Cairns Aquarium: Night Admission + 2-Course Dinner

As night falls on the Great Barrier Reef, a busy underwater world comes alive. Corals emit a soft light, reef fish hide and predators begin their hunt, while nearby coastal forests stir as reptiles, amphibians and insects emerge to forage. Night at the Aquarium gives you exclusive after-hours entry to Cairns Aquarium to glimpse this nighttime world for yourself. Check in at 5:45 PM, then join a live English-speaking guide at 6:00 PM for a guided tour of the aquarium after dark, watching its creatures go about their evening lives. At 7:45 PM the evening continues with a two-course dinner at Squire's Loft Restaurant, where you can enjoy the view of the aquatic life while you eat. The whole experience lasts about 2 hours 30 minutes. Cairns Aquarium is at 5 Florence Street in Cairns City, and your smartphone ticket is accepted at the entrance. Children aged 3 to 14 need a child ticket, and if you would like your infant to have a meal, book a child ticket for them too.
