Discover a world beneath the waves in OceanXperience, where marine science missions come to life in this immersive experience celebrating the OceanXplorer research vessel, as seen in National Geographic's OceanXplorers series.

Using interactive technology, OceanXperience connects you directly to the discoveries shaping our knowledge of marine ecosystems and inspires the next generation of ocean advocates.

About the Exhibition

OceanXperience transforms you into a marine scientist! Explore immersive recreations of the ship's most vital spaces - Mission Control, the Bridge, Wet and Dry Labs, and the Sub Hangar - where groundbreaking research into marine species happens in real time.

Through hands-on tasks and real expedition footage, you'll experience how robotics, submersibles, and advanced mapping systems onboard the OceanXplorer are revolutionising our understanding of Earth's largest ecosystem.
