Strategic Visit Planner

Sequence high‑traffic show times with low‑density exhibit windows. Hydration & shade cadence matter in humid coastal climate.

Timing Logic
  • Arrive early: Aquarium low crowd drift.
  • Late morning: Slide cluster usage.
  • Midday: Indoor interpretive rotation.
  • Late afternoon: Second pass selective.
Ideal Durations
  • Half Day: Core aquarium + one show.
  • Full Day: Slides + full interpretive cycle.
  • Two Days: Pace + revisit favorites.
1‑Day Flow
  1. Shipwreck galleries (opening hour).
  2. Dolphin stadium slot.
  3. Slides & water rotation.
  4. Penguin / ray educational set.
  5. Evening ambient aquarium revisit.
2‑Day Arc
  1. Day 1: Aquarium depth + core shows.
  2. Day 2: Slides, specialty encounters, selective repeat.
Practical
  • Water shoes & UV rash guard.
  • Secure locker for electronics.
  • Schedule shows first (capacity).
Responsible
  • No tapping glass / flash disruption.
  • Observe animal distance guidance.
  • Choose sustainable merchandise.
Why It Resonates
  • Layered educational + entertainment value.
  • Architectural storytelling enhances learning retention.
  • Multi‑age appeal (slides ↔ interpretive exhibits).
  • Gateway synergy with broader Durban coastline.

Tip: Photograph low‑light tanks early before reflective crowd surfaces increase glare.
