Touch and feel the remarkable specimens in our shell and fossil collection and learn all about what they are made from, how they grow. How old are the fossils, be amazed at the massive Megaladon teeth and huge Shark jaws.

Be inspired to discover and learn more, everyone will have the chance to experience the splash tank.

Full of living * Sea Stars * Shells * Corals and sponges * Sea Cucumbers, Elephant snails, plus many more creatures.

Teach the kids about becoming an Ocean warrior, and sustainability, gaining an understanding about the little things we can all do that will make a difference protecting the oceans for generations to come.

We talk about the most sustainable method of fishing, spearfishing and various methods of collecting seafood, some techniques have remained almost unchanged since they were first adopted and used by the local Aboriginal people thousands of years ago.
