Love this place as I used to come here while on school camps as I haven't been here for a while so probably it's most likely have changed but might not. It's amazing place to learn about sea animals like the killer whale for example

Super friendly staff and a good place to visit in Victor Harbour. There's lots to see, touch, read and watch on whales, sharks and dolphins. Definitely a fun educational way to spend a bit of time with the kids. Or without kids as we did Parts seem a little dated and some of the interactive displays weren't working. Hence the 4/5.

Not big but great for young children to explore. Every corner fills with surprise and interesting knowledge. Anyway,we really enjoy the time there.

We were greeted by a really lovely man as we entered who informed us about what there was to look at and had a nice chat with us!There is an upstairs section for kids, a general section for everyone to look at with lots of information on whaling, whales and marine life and a downstairs section too.As a Sea Shepherd Volunteer in the Hobart chapter, I particularly loved the Steve Irwin ship display located downstairs. I spotted a few friends and familiar faces in the photos, videos and stories there and got to see a few more bits and pieces to do with Sea Shepherd.Definitely, a place the whole family can visit and enjoy! Thanks once again!

The staff here were very friendly, helpful and quick with a joke. Lots of information for all age groups on the history of the whaling industry and more contemporary information about all things maritime. There are 'hands on' displays for a more tactile experience or for younger visitors to experience some of the displays more intimately. The sand pit in the basement would be a lot of fun for the younger generation. There are a few audio visual displays to enjoy and especially the 3D pisplay in the basement theatre is worthwhile. The 9 entry fee is well worthwhile and goes to a good cause.

Very informative about the whaling history of the region. Well worth a visit (particularly during whale watching season)

Fascinating collection of informative displays with daily reports of available whale viewing locations.
