Stimulating the senses, participants interact with large 3D corals, musical stepping stones and can venture into a coral cave where an upside down underwater world is waiting to be discovered.
ACTIVITY: CAN YOU SOLVE THE MYSTERY?
An imaginary underwater world with unique plants, birds, fish and giant corals that light up and sing – what's this? An undiscovered island! Let us decipher some mysterious messages and see what lays on this fantastic place... Join us weekly to see the story unravel.
