Submerged tells the story of the dazzling firefly squid and other majestic ocean animals from a glittering shoreline in the midst of spawning season to a moonlit deep dive into the depths of the bioluminescent unknown.

While the Oceanarium undergoes upgrades, some of the incredible creatures – including the larger sharks and rays – are not visible to guests. Visitors can rest assured that there are still thousands of wonderful marine and freshwater creatures to discover at SEA LIFE Melbourne throughout 2023. In addition to the new Submerged experience, guests can marvel at sub-Antarctic penguins, turtles, jellyfish, Port Jackson sharks, Pinjarra the saltwater crocodile, fish of all shapes, sizes and colours, and more!
