Photo: [Pexels](https://www.pexels.com) ## Parking at Melbourne Aquarium on Flinders Street There is no public car park onsite at Melbourne Aquarium, at 493-503 Flinders Street, Melbourne VIC 3000. The attraction’s local parking partnership is with Secure Parking at 522 Flinders Lane, approximately 240 metres away (melbourneaquarium.com.au). Discounted parking is listed at $22 on weekdays and $9 on weekends and public holidays (visitsealife.com). Secure Parking lists early bird parking from $15, a $15 commuter flat rate, a $15 online flat rate, drive-up parking at $15 and hourly parking from $12 at 522 Flinders Lane (secureparking.com.au). The car park is available on weekdays and weekends (secureparking.com.au). For visitors heading straight to the aquarium, the Flinders Lane facility is the attraction’s named parking arrangement rather than an onsite bay. ## Busy Times and Street Parking Around Flinders Street Weekday parking around the Melbourne Aquarium precinct is more expensive than weekend and public-holiday parking under the attraction’s discounted arrangement, with the listed rates of $22 and $9 respectively (visitsealife.com). The aquarium sits at 493-503 Flinders Street, while the partnered facility is at 522 Flinders Lane (melbourneaquarium.com.au). Parking on surrounding Melbourne streets is controlled by posted restrictions, paid-parking conditions and clearway or loading rules where signed. Street bays are therefore less predictable than the named car park, particularly when Flinders Street and the waterfront precinct are busy.

This gives drivers another named facility on Flinders Lane, separate from the partnered Secure Parking site at 522 Flinders Lane. Care Park Northbank Place is at 555 Flinders Street, Melbourne (carepark.com.au). Its casual weekday parking allows entry after 6:00 am and exit before 4:00 pm, with a $12 flat rate (carepark.com.au).

The attraction’s published parking directions identify Secure Parking at 522 Flinders Lane as the discounted parking option rather than an onsite facility (visitsealife.com). Drivers considering other facilities should match the car park’s entry and exit conditions to the length of their visit. ## Trains and the Walk to Melbourne Aquarium Southern Cross is the nearest station, 550 metres from Melbourne Aquarium, a seven-minute walk.
