Suitable for families with children

Family verdict

Go with kids 5–17 for boat rides and hands-on reef exploration—touching starfish and spotting pufferfish pools are genuine draws. Skip younger kids and plan visits around tide schedules, since the park's remote location means limited flexibility once you arrive. Book your boat trip in advance and check tidal charts before the day you visit.

Why this rating?
