The recent Easter school holiday period proved wonderfully busy with extended opening hours, rocky shore rambles and snorkel trips. A big thank you to our enthusiastic and committed volunteers ever at the ready to help in sharing their knowledge and passion to new and returning visitors and staff alike.

Recently we've had some new additions to the tanks such as delicate anemones, pencil slate urchins, a new Octopus and a beautifully marked Port Jackson shark. The shark, Heterodontus portusjacksoni, a 4-5 year old female was originally part of a pilot trial study conducted by Phd research student Tristian at the Merimbula Aquarium. 

Our aquaria life is ever changing and like life outside the tanks is transient and unpredictable, so come in and see us soon!
