Vacation and commercial care groups can bring their crew for a unique AQWA experience! Become ocean guardians with our turtle-themed Wildlife Rescue experience featuring hands-on activities & talks crafted for ages 4-12.


What to Expect:

This experience shellabrates the amazing features of turtles! Kids become ocean guardians as they discover everything turtle - from their habitats, to threats to survival and the unique roles turtles play within ecosystems. They also get hands-on, learning practical tips on saving turtles, participating in "research", watching a turtle feed and creating their own eco-product.

  • Entry to all of AQWA's exhibits
  • Themed Wildlife Rescue turtle talk by AQWA Guide (approx. 15 mins)
  • Take part in our hands-on Turtle Researcher activity (approx. 20-25 mins): Use our plush model turtles to collect data, like researchers do in the field! Scan for tags using real equipment, identify species by ID charts and record measurements for size and weight.
  • Take-home eco craft: make your own tie-dye reusable bag
  • Meet our rescue turtles*(approx. 15 mins): learn their story, watch a feeding and discover the technology used to tag and monitor released turtles.
