Get up close and personal with Australia’s unique marine wildlife at Port Stephen’s number one conservation attraction. Safely interact with sharks, rays, fish, and other wildlife at Shark, Ray and All Creatures Rescue Centre in Port Stephens.

With more than 7 pools of sharks and rays (always at 24 degrees) you can do so much more than just look at fish swimming. Pat and feed the marine creatures from the side of the pools as the friendly sharks, rays, and fish swim over to greet you.

For a more up-close experience, you can get in the water with the sharks and rays who are very friendly and gentle. Many of them are juveniles so won’t be mistaking your arms and legs for food any time soon.

Learn about the threats to Australia’s marine creatures and how you can help conservation efforts. All the animals are rescues getting a second chance at life while educating the public. The warm, shallow pools are perfect for non-swimmers and those a little hesitant about entering the ocean.
