Looking for the perfect birthday gift for someone else?

Consider a Two Oceans Aquarium membership, which gives the bearer unlimited access for 12 full months, as well as access to exclusive events, special rates for experiences, and selected discounts. It’s something that can’t be lost or thrown away, and is guaranteed to make a difference to the ocean and the people that depend on it. It’s a gift that keeps on giving!

Friends and family will also love the various Experiences on offer at the Two Oceans Aquairum. The Penguin Experience and the Ocean Experience are close, ethical encounters with awesome animals that inspire care, love and understanding for our underwater friends. Scuba diving is another great gift - even if they don't have a diving qualification, we can get them into the water and diving on the same day!
