We couldn't do this without you: honouring the long service of our staff and volunteers

Nothing we do would be possible without the committed and passionate team of staff and volunteers that we get to call family at the Two Oceans Aquarium. If the past year has taught us anything, it's that we can overcome challenges far more easily is we can draw on the resilience and compassion of those around us - so thank you team for taking us forward.

On 24 March 2021, we had the much-delayed opportunity to thank those who have served as staff and volunteers at the Aquarium and our non-profit partner, the Two Oceans Aquarium Foundation, for terms of 5, 10, 15, 20 and even 25 years. These recognitions were awarded by Two Oceans Aquarium CEO Michael Farquhar and General Curator Tinus Beukes.
