At coo-inducing Seahorse World, cute seahorses are hatched and raised to supply aquariums worldwide. Access is via 45-minute guided tours, which run on the hour and take you into the world of the Hippocampus abdominalis (pot-bellied seahorse). There's a bit of a cafe here, too.
The three-attraction Tamar Triple Pass (adult/family $50/136) gets you into Seahorse World, Platypus House and the Beaconsfield Mine & Heritage Centre .
