5 Reasons to visit the Two Oceans Aquarium

The Two Oceans Aquarium is home to a huge variety of animal species of all shapes and sizes! From sea turtles, to jellyfish, all the way to Western clownfish (or nemos, as they are more popular known). As much as there are often standout favourites among our visitors, like the ragged-tooth sharks or the rockhopper penguins, there are always a few hidden gems that are known to fascinate many people once they are spotted!

Many of our Two Oceans Aquarium members visit frequently (courtesy of their unlimited visits perk), not only to check up on their faves but also to meet new animals they've not yet seen. The Aquarium brings in new 'residents' quite often and also releases some of the ones that are ready to re-enter the wild.

Never dived before? Long time diver looking for a unique diving experience? If either one applies to you - then you've come to the right place! The Two Oceans Aquarium Dive School offers a wide range of PADI-certified scuba and freediving courses for all experience levels. Newbies typically start with a PADI Open Water Diver Course or PADI Freediver Course.

Those who are curious to try scuba diving before committing to a full course can take a PADI Discover Scuba Diving Experience with us.

The Two Oceans Aquarium is one of the most exciting environments you'll ever find yourself in, and is one that encourages you to have the most fun possible. However, the main objective and purpose of the Aquarium is to educate people about our ocean and the importance thereof. Along with our wonderful staff, various education courses, and many other initiatives, we understand the magnitude of seeing marine life before your very eyes, and we hope that it provides every visitor with a sense of pride and responsibility towards the ocean. If there's anything you'd like to learn about the ocean or any of its wonderful marine life, the Aquarium is an amazing place to start!
