A splashing good time is coming to SEA LIFE Melbourne Aquarium in celebration of its newest residents, rescue sea turtles, Plugga, Chandler and Dave – who have moved down from sister aquarium, SEA LIFE Sydney Aquarium.

From March 27 to April 28, families can dive into an unforgettable adventure in the Night on the Reef exhibit and learn about these magnificent sea turtles whilst watching them glide through the water alongside sharks, rays and many more creatures that call the reef home.

Families can explore a world of discovery with a free activity booklet, packed with engaging games and educational turtle titbits. At the same time, passionate marine educators will deliver insightful talks about sea turtle conservation efforts and the incredible journeys of Plugga, Chandler and Dave.

Kids can become certified Junior Turtle Rescuers, by popping on a lab coat and getting hands on at the Turtle Rescue Station. Using their knew found knowledge they'll be able to identify injuries, check turtle x-rays, and help release rescued turtle toys into the pool!

Claire Burrell, General Manager, SEA LIFE Melbourne, said, “We are thrilled to welcome Chandler, Dave, and Plugga, our magnificent sea turtles, to their forever home here in Melbourne.”

Their move from SEA LIFE Sydney to join our family is such an exciting addition to the aquarium and highlights our commitment to providing these incredible creatures with the best possible care and environment. We are delighted to share their journey with visitors and hope to inspire a deeper connection with marine life and conservation efforts through their presence."

An exclusive storybook about the heartwarming rescue of Plugga the sea turtle, will be available from the retail store, with all proceeds donated to the SEA LIFE Trust. Specially crafted showbags are available online with ticket purchases and in the retail store so families can take home a piece of their SEA LIFE Melbourne experience.

Guests can also discover a range of other marine and freshwater creatures at SEA LIFE Melbourne including sub-Antarctic penguins, a saltwater crocodile, thousands of fish species and more!
Guests can go BIG and double the family fun with the Melbourne Big Ticket, which gives families access to both SEA LIFE Melbourne Aquarium and LEGOLAND Discovery Centre.
