The Two Oceans Aquarium entrance fee is R265 for adults, R195 for pensioners and students, and R120 for children aged 4 to 13. Children under 4 enter free. The aquarium is at the V&A Waterfront in Cape Town.

Two Oceans Aquarium Prices

Category Standard After 3pm special
Adults R265 R200
Pensioners (65+), students & youth 14–17 R195 R147
Children 4–13 R120 R90
Children under 4 Free Free

The R195 band covers three groups: pensioners aged 65 and over, students with a valid South African card, and young people aged 14 to 17. The R120 child rate applies only to ages 4 to 13, so a 14-year-old pays R195 rather than the child price.

The After 3 Special

Arriving from 3pm during South African school terms saves R65 on an adult ticket. The discount is sold at the on-site ticket office rather than online, and it applies to term-time weekdays rather than school holidays.

Free Entry in Your Birthday Month

South Africans enter free during their birthday month on production of SA ID. This is a month-long window, not a single day, which makes it one of the more generous birthday concessions in the country.

Concession Conditions

The pensioner rate applies from age 65, higher than the age 60 used by most South African attractions, and ID may be requested on the day. Students need a valid South African student card and pay the same R195.

Group Bookings

Buying ten or more day tickets earns a 10% discount, excluding under-4s who are already free.
