Special autumn holiday events:

Breakfast with the Animals 🪱

Start your day by watching how we serve breakfast to the animals in our rainforest. Get a behind-the-scenes look at what they eat and how their meals are prepared. You’ll even have the chance to taste some of their food – how about exotic fruits, fresh greens, or a crunchy mealworm?

Plaske’s Mysterious Mystery 🔍

Who ate Plaske’s lunch? Help us solve this fun and educational mystery! Gather clues with our animal keepers to discover which of our animals devoured Plaske’s blue mussels. Was it the crab, octopus, starfish, or pufferfish? Join the investigation to find out!

Animal Keepers’ Surprise

Meet one of our animal keepers somewhere in the exhibit for a surprise encounter! Whether it’s a special feeding session or a behind-the-scenes look at how we care for our aquarium, each day brings a new surprise. Check the daily program for details!

Kids’ Tour – Animals’ Superpowers 🦑

Join a kid-friendly tour where we focus on the animals’ superpowers. We’ll look at animals with special abilities, like starfish that can regenerate their arms and octopuses that can change colour. The tour is perfect for kids of all ages, with plenty of time for questions and fun stories.

Up Close 🦀

10:30 AM – 1:30 PM (each session lasts about 10 minutes)

Step into our classrooms for an up-close look at some of the ocean’s most intriguing creatures. Our educators will share interesting facts about how these animals live and eat. Did you know starfish eat with their stomachs? Roll up your sleeves and learn all about crabs, starfish, and sea anemones.
