Two Oceans Aquarium volunteers are ocean-minded members of our community who dedicate their free time to spreading awareness and love of the marine environment, caring for the animals at the Aquarium, and assisting in the technical aspects of running a top Cape Town attraction.

You don't need any prior experience or qualifications to become a volunteer! This is the perfect opportunity for anyone who wants to dip their toes into a future career in marine science or those who already have a job and want a hobby that keeps their connection to the ocean alive.

We protect marine ecosystems through our sustainability efforts and work towards the Sustainable Development Goals.

If you want an easy-to-store souvenir to commemorate your visit to the Aquarium, then simply have your picture taken by one of our Happy Snappy photographers near the entrance.

The I&J Children's Play Centre is a safe space where little ones can enjoy entertaining and educational puppet shows, and age-appropriate arts and crafts with a marine theme. Our early childhood development team loves nothing more than filling the hearts and minds of children with love and joy for the ocean (and giving parents a few minutes to rest during their Two Oceans Aquarium Visit).
