The Atrium
The moment you enter the Aquatopia Atrium, you are transported into what seems like another world. Tropical plants scent the air with fragrant, vibrant flowers, and lush foliage. It feels clean, refreshing, and makes one feel completely alive! A gorgeous living wall forms an inviting backdrop as you approach our main reception desk, while the sounds of tumbling water falls seduce you further into our heavenly sanctum.
Explore a little further to the centre of the Atrium where the space opens up to our feature water gardens including a koi-filled ecosystem pond, a basalt column fountainscape, and a lovely pondless waterfall and stream. Exotic plants from every corner of the world flourish and completely surround you in this verdant environment, while soaring glass ceilings overhead allow the warm sunshine to stream in and warm your soul while you relax on the pond side deck. Aquatopia is open to the general public during our regular garden centre hours
