Shaw Ocean Discovery Centre Opens Saturday

The long anticipated wait is over! Tomorrow you can go to the opening of the Shaw Ocean Discovery Centre in beautiful Sidney by the Sea. The centre is located right at the end of Beacon Avenue where the roundabout is. You can't miss it. The address is 9811 Seaport Place. It opens with a grand splash! Celine Cousteau, granddaughter of the famous Jacques Cousteau will be here to celebrate the opening of the Shaw Ocean Discovery Centre. Celine Cousteau will join First Nations elders and other local dignitaries on Saturday, June 20 at 9:00 am in Beacon Park on the Sidney waterfront, for the official welcome. The inaugural ceremonies will take place before the doors open to the public at noon Saturday. From giant octopus to microscopic plankton, the Shaw Ocean Discovery Centre showcases marine life of the Salish Sea. Seventeen aquarium habitats filled with 87 tonnes of seawater are home to thousands of fish, invertebrates, and marine plants. How could you possibly miss this. This is the most exciting new attraction to come along in years. I will be there, how about you? You can find the centre web site at Vanisle Tourism Click Here
