Marine Discovery Centre

Discover, Learn, and Protect at Adelaide’s Marine Discovery Centre

Located on the beautiful Henley Beach, the Marine Discovery Centre is the perfect place for families to dive into South Australia’s vibrant marine life while learning how to protect our coastal environments. This engaging centre offers interactive exhibits and aquariums featuring fascinating marine creatures like the Port Jackson Shark, Pot Bellied Seahorses, and more.

Explore hands-on learning stations that cover topics like sustainable fishing, Aboriginal culture, and marine preservation. Visitors can also enjoy the beachside marine trails, adding a real-world dimension to the centre’s indoor educational activities.

Monthly Open Days invite families to explore aquariums, try out virtual reality underwater adventures, and learn about Kaurna culture in the interactive Kaurna Education Room. With both guided and self-discovery experiences, the Marine Discovery Centre makes learning about our oceans fun and memorable for all ages.
