Dive Into Their World
From April 1st - 16th, guests can join the mission of the Turtle Rescue Team and learn how and why we must help our turtle friends!
Upon entry, kids will receive a free activity booklet to begin their turtle rescue mission. Moving through multiple rescue stages, families and kids can dive into this turtle-y awesome learning experience from weigh in, checking diet and hydration to comparing x-rays, before giving their turtle the green light for release.
Alongside the rescue mission, kids will also receive a turtle-y awesome free painting by numbers sheet, and once their turtle rescue mission is complete, kids will receive a rescue certificate, “shell-ebrating” the great work that they have done to help the turtles.
For guests who want to learn more, there will be a daily artefacts table with one of our marine experts for Q&A’s. There is also the option to dive even deeper into the world of a rescue turtle, by booking a Behind the Scenes Tour and visiting the Turtle Rehabilitation Centre (at an additional cost).
