CAIRNS AQUARIUM COVID-19 SAFETY MEASURES

As a COVID Safe business, we are committed to the health and safety of our customers and staff. We are strictly following all Queensland Government guidelines regarding the spread of COVID-19. 

PHYSICAL DISTANCING

We have installed signage throughout the aquarium, so you know exactly how far away you need to be from other people.

HYGIENE & CLEANING

Hand sanitisers are located throughout the building for your use and we request that you use contactless payment options at all times. 

We have increased our cleaning protocols in all areas of our businesses and will ensure all frequently used areas are regularly cleaned and sanitized as per the health department guidelines.

VULNERABLE CUSTOMERS

Vulnerable customers (those who are identified as ‘at-risk’) are recommended not to attend the premises until QLD Health advises it is safe to do so. Vulnerable customers who are comfortable attending the premises are advised to take their own additional safety precautions and are notified that the business cannot guarantee their safety.

Please note, these general guidelines are in compliance with Queensland Health and Australian Government Department of Health current recommendations, and the Queensland Tourism Industry Council (QTIC) COVID Safe Plan. Advice will be amended in accordance with the most up to date recommendations.

We thank you for your cooperation in regards to these important safety measures and please don’t hesitate to reach out to our friendly team should you have any questions or contact [email protected] or 4044 7300
