Discover the Teeth & Tails of incredible aquatic animals as you go on a journey through the underwater world at SEA LIFE Kelly Tarlton’s Aquarium this summer!

From Saturday 19 December 2020 to Sunday 31 January 2021, the aquarium is taking you on a deep dive into the form and function of sea creatures’ body parts with an activity booklet, origami and colouring-in station, an artefacts station and more!

Learn about the sharp teeth of the creepy-looking moray eel, which has a hidden set of jaws to help swallow prey! Find out about the unusual mouth of the tuatara, whose teeth differ from every other toothed reptile.

You can also discover how the playful Gentoo penguins use their tail feathers to prop themselves up and how the seahorse’s tail gets its curly shape!

The Teeth & Tails adventure doesn’t end there – you can also unearth interesting information about sea stars, sharks, turtles and eagle rays.

SEA LIFE Kelly Tarlton’s will be open seven days per week during the school holidays. All visitors must pre-book their tickets online in advance. Visit www.kellytarlton’s.co.nz for opening hours, updates, tickets and health and safety information.
