2025 Ocean Open Day

Join us for a fun day of discovery on Sunday 8 June to celebrate World Ocean Day! Discover the wonders of the ocean through interactive exhibits, hands-on activities, and engaging presentations. Meet marine scientists, learn about cutting-edge research, and explore the fascinating world beneath the waves.

Whether you're an ocean enthusiast, a curious learner or just looking for a unique experience, this event is perfect for families and learners of all ages. Dive into the world of oceanography and gain a new appreciation for our planet's most mysterious and vital ecosystem. Don't miss out on this exciting opportunity to explore the depths of the sea!

You can come for either a morning (10:00-13:00 hrs) or afternoon (13:30-16:00) session. We also have a session from 16:15-17:15 for people who prefer a quieter and calmer experience.

Tickets are free, but as the National Oceanography Centre Southampton is located within the Southampton Docks area, operated by the Associated British Ports (ABP), you will need to register for a ticket to access the site and attend a session.
