To help inspire future generations, this special program was designed for students to experience a day in the life of aquarium staff. Sea Campers are given a tour of the World Aquarium and spend the day assisting aquarium staff with regular duties. In addition, students will have lunch with staff members and meet the Aquarium President.

This program provides in depth exposure for children who are interested in a career with animals. We recommend this program for children age 8 years and older.
