Introduction

Discover the extraordinary opportunity to immerse yourself in the aquatic world of seals with a special swim experience at SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast. Perfect for animal enthusiasts and adventure seekers, this activity lets you share the water with these curious creatures and witness their natural abilities up close. With knowledgeable trainers and a safe environment, it is an educational and memorable day out.

Seal Encounter Overview

Your visit begins with a guided introduction to SEA LIFE’s resident seals. Guests are invited to learn about the seals’ history, behaviours and unique personalities from keepers who work with them daily. This sets the stage for a one-of-a-kind interaction where you see seals not only as performers but as intelligent, playful marine mammals.

Unforgettable Swim Experience

Next, suit up for an interactive swim session in a state-of-the-art marine tank under expert supervision. Participants enter the tank, being gently introduced to the seals as they glide through the water. Feel the rush as the seals spin and dive around you, demonstrating their natural grace in their aquatic environment. This hands-on encounter broadens your understanding of their behaviours and creates lasting memories.

Photo Opportunity

Capture the moment with a professional photo session on the jetty alongside one of SEA LIFE’s friendly seals. Take home a keepsake photo to remember your close-up marine adventure for years to come. Additional photos are available for purchase after your experience.

Behind-the-Scenes Tour

Following the swim, you will take a behind-the-scenes look at the seal husbandry area. Here, the dedicated animal care team details the feeding routines, training techniques and day-to-day care that keep the seals healthy and happy. Discover more about conservation work and the important role these marine mammals play in educating the public about ocean preservation.
