The southern tip of the African continent is the meeting place of two mighty and bountiful oceans, the Indian and the Atlantic. The Two Oceans Aquarium on the V&A Waterfront, Cape Town, is ideally positioned to showcase the incredible diversity of marine life found in these two oceans. The Aquarium is a top tourist attraction and over 3 000 living sea animals, including sharks, fishes, seals, turtles and penguins can be seen in this spectacular underwater nature reserve. The 'two oceans' theme is illustrated by spectacular exhibits, ranging from vibrant displays of Indian Ocean tropical fishes to the magnificent 800 000-litre Kelp Forest Exhibit, which is one of only two living kelp forests on display in the world. Visitors will be mesmerised by the gentle sway of tall kelp plants and the play of dappled sunlight on silver fishes.
