Dinosaur Dreaming
Dinosaur Dreaming is the “museum” section of DinoQuest where visitors can view replicas of dinosaur skeletons found at Dinosaur Cove, including a reconstruction of Timimus, a tyrannosauroid that was discovered in 1994.
Activity Zone
Complete your DinoQuest experience at the exhibition’s Activity Zone. Visitors can colour a “dinosaur” and even name it as well. Watch as it comes to life digitally in a virtual animated Dinosaur Park.
