An awesome way to spend your day. Lose yourself in the oceans and meet the denizens of the deep.


The Two Oceans Aquarium offers an exquisite glimpse into the depths of the spectacular southern African oceans. Through displays ranging from large ragged-tooth sharks to the small and almost mythical Knysna seahorses, the Two Oceans Aquarium holds a captivating discovery at every underwater window and around every corner. Get mesmerised by the swaying giant kelp forest - one of only three living kelp forest displays in the world. Come finger-to-claw with immense spider crabs. Or touch slimy sea beasties in the Touch Pool. You’ll find something to excite, delight and enthrall you. The Aquarium is also provides a great opportunity for divers to come nose-to-snout with toothy sharks - in underwater conditions that are always perfect. Qualified divers can sink into the enormous glass-walled I&J Predator Exhibit with ragged-tooth sharks, turtles, a giant short-tailed stingray and shoals of other predatory fish while advanced divers can explore the unique world of an Atlantic Ocean kelp forest. All divers are accompanied by a dive master, and each dive is preceded by a briefing. You can use your own dive gear, or can hire everything here. The Aquarium supplies cylinders and weight belts. Just don’t forget to book, or take your underwater camera.
