COMING SOON - DIGI:SEA
This autumn, The Deep is excited to announce the arrival of Digi:Sea, our brand new interactive ocean wall (which will be located at the top of the stairs in Deep Blue One)
Design your animal at the creation station, upload it to the Digi:Sea wall and see your very own creation become an animated work of art. This immersive experience will draw out your inner artist and is an ideal way for families to get creative together.
Watch this space for exact opening dates.
LIVING RIVERS
Protecting the world’s rivers is a vital part of protecting planet Earth. By understanding these habitats and the creatures living in them we can change our behaviours to ensure their survival. Living Rivers showcases some of the greatest river systems of the world including the Rio Grande, the Amazon and the Mekong.
It’s estimated that 80% of all pollution in our oceans comes from land-based activities via rivers and land run-off, so in Deep Blue One we feature some of the world’s greatest river systems and their surrounding habitats to show the intricacies of life for inhabitants and how closely they affect one another.
You can learn more about the ecosystem of each river and the particular threats it faces, including mining, deforestation, and overfishing. The exhibition complements our marine displays and is a vital part of our story line. Living Rivers was designed and built by our in-house team as part of our 10th anniversary year series of developments.
The exhibit is brought to life by carefully chosen exotic species including Red-Bellied piranha, a colony of Leaf Cutter ants and an Amazon Tree boa.
You can also take advantage of our newly refurbished soft play area down in Deep Blue One.
