Vera's Water Garden & Playground
We all know kids love water. Little ones immediately rush to the colourful statues and the water fountains and they love splashing in the shallow water for ages.
Remember to take their swimmers and a towel.
Pelican Feeding
Pelican Feeding is the biggest attraction at The Entrance.
Pelican Feeding officially starts at 3.30 pm.
But the show unofficially begins before 3.00 pm because the pelicans arrive one by one. They assemble on the shore where they wait for their food. It's fascinating to watch.
The pelicans know what time it is precisely. It’s amazing.
You learn a lot from the talk. Volunteers explain interesting facts about the pelicans and how feeding began and why.
