Count the Nemos: The Western Clownfish Exhibit is home to a family of colourful Western clownfish (or “Nemos” as they are fondly known). Children and adults alike can sit in the middle of the exhibit as though submerged underwater. Ask your loved ones to snap a picture.
Spot the octopus: Spend some time in the Diversity Gallery searching for the often tricky-to-find common octopus. A master of camouflage renowned for its rapid colour changes, the octopus can adapt its body colour to match that of the surrounding environment within seconds.
Jasmine the Fact Painting Fairy will be at the I&J Children's Play Centre from 9am to 3pm until Monday April 7 to paint children' faces.
Aquarium puppet shows: Children between the ages of 3 and 9 can enjoy the puppet shows daily at the I&J Children's Play Centre at 10.300am, 1.30pm and 3.30pm with characters including Sally the Seal, Henry the Seahorse, Exo the Crab, Peter the Penguin, Bruce the Shark, Tinks the Tortoise, Lilly the Leopard Catshark, Whiskers the Mouse and Edgar the Eagle.
Feeding time: Feeding times at the Save Our Seas Foundation Shark Exhibit are Saturdays at noon, and at the I&J Exhibiit on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at noon. Penguins are fed everyday at 11.30am and 2.30pm, and the Kelp Forest creatures are fed on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays at noon. Be sure to get a good seat to watch.
Penguin Experience: The penguin experience is a chance for up to two people to join one of our Penguin Keepers for an informative, fun face-to-face experience with the birds. During this time, visitors learn how the penguins are cared for at the Two Oceans Aquarium, discover their stories, and have the chance to meet the penguins behind the scenes.
Rockhopper Waddle: Every day, the rockhopper penguins enjoy a swim in the Kelp Forest Exhibit. They end their swim at around 11.30am every day, after which they waddle, accompanied by a Penguin Keeper, back to their beach in the Penguin Exhibit. Visit the Penguin Exhibit around this time to catch the rockhoppers waddling back to their beach.

The Two Oceans Aquarium is open daily from 9am to 6pm. For more information, visit www.aquarium.co.za
