My second visit to U-Shaka Marine World, but my first visit after it was revamp! This is so much fun for the whole family as it caters to young and old! Lots to see and lots to do! There are wide range of shops, restaurants and other interesting sites-seeing things to do!
The Dolphin Show is a definite must see and sell as the Aquarium!
There are water slides and picnic spots! A real treat for the entire family!
