Aquarium, and discover the importance and wonders of the vibrant seas and learn how everyone can help to protect the oceans and the marine life which inhabits the oceans. With a roster of programmes, activities and a pledge wall, guests will be treated to an educational and inspiring journey that seeks to encourage love and protection for the oceans before they turn colourless due to the detrimental effects of climate change.

[Art Installation] OBNOVA

Immerse in an ethereal art installation titled OBNOVA at the Shipwreck Gallery. Created by local award-winning multi-disciplinary artist, Rizman Putra, OBNOVA gives guests a glimpse of how an ideal future would look like with a restored and flourishing oceanscape.

Ayer Ayer Shore Table

Date: 28 May to 14 Jun 2022

Interact with marine debris and learn about the impact of microplastics at the Ayer Ayer Shore Table, an interactive table sculpture presented in partnership with social enterprise, The Ayer Ayer Project.

From 28 May till 14 June 2022, the Ayer Ayer Shore Table confronts audiences with the extent of marine debris in our oceans, aiming to inspire guests to take action and participate in beach clean-ups.

Representing the coastlines of Singapore and Malaysia, the Ayer Ayer Shore Table is embedded with microplastics collected from both countries’ shorelines. Guests can sift through the sandy Shore Table to collect the microplastics, akin to a coastal clean-up. The microplastics collected from the Shore Table can be used to create colourful mosaic artworks that participants can bring home.

Pledge Wall

Alternatively, guests may also pledge to reduce plastic consumption and refuse single-use plastics by contributing their mosaic artworks to the Pledge Wall at the end of their visit to Ocean Fest.

Parents can nurture young ocean lovers through the S.E.A. Aquarium’s Junior Ocean Protector Camp ­– a fun and enriching half-day camp happening over the mid-year school holidays. In hopes of inspiring the future generation to become true-blue ocean protectors, children between the ages of 7 and 12 years are invited to learn about the oceans and marine biodiversity, how to protect marine animals, as well as the threats that they are facing.

Camp participants will have the opportunity to embark on a guided Ocean Protector Trail comprising various missions to help them learn about marine animals at the aquarium. There will also be educational encounters with selected marine animals as well as an upcycling activity to learn how to reduce waste. At the end of the session, participants will get to bring a souvenir home to remember the lessons learnt at camp. 

Taking place from Fridays to Sundays from 28 May to 26 June 2022, the Junior Ocean Protector Camp has two sessions a day – one in the morning (9.00am to 1.30pm) and an afternoon session (2.00pm to 6.30pm).

Participants will be split into groups based on their age and each group has a maximum capacity of 20 children.
