Sea of Cuddles with the Rays

Upon your arrival at Irukandji Shark and Ray Encounters, the knowledgeable team equipped with a wealth of oceanic knowledge will brief you on safety procedures, and gear you with wetsuits and socks. From here, the magic truly begins as you immerse yourself in the shallow waters of the Fingill Lagoon, embarking on an intimate 20-minute encounter. As you sit quietly in the shallow waters, you'll have the privilege of interacting with these gentle creatures - feeling the smooth glide of the rays as they skim across your lap.

After your encounter with the rays, you're free to discover the aquarium at your own pace. With over 2 hours of exploration time, uncover fascinating facts about marine life, such as the unique pattern on each stingray's back, akin to human fingerprints.

Relax on the rocks, feel the sand beneath your feet, and watch as sharks and rays approach you naturally. Take your adventure a step further with the famed shark encounter, an interactive and exhilarating experience.
