In this fun workshop you will learn how to identify turtles, understand their ecology and explore the threats they face. You will experience their race for survival yourself as we play games on the beach, explore the sea grass laboratory at the Indian Ocean Marine Research Centre Watermans Bay, and will work together to brainstorm how we can protect these amazing animals in the future.

This activity is suitable for children 7-12 years of age. Tickets must be purchased for participating children only. The ages for each activity are in place for your children to get the most out of their activity. In most cases, these age limits are in place due to activity content, recommendations by outside providers or for safety reasons. We appreciate your understanding in booking only children who are age appropriate into activities.
