Two Oceans Aquarium
Two Oceans Aquarium

Das Two Oceans Aquarium ist ein Aquarium in Kapstadt, Südafrika. Seinen Namen hat es aufgrund seiner Lage am Kap der Guten Hoffnung, dem Zusammentreffen von Atlantischem und Indischem Ozean.

Das 1995 eröffnete Aquarium beinhaltet in über 30 Becken 300 Fischarten aus dem Indischen und dem Atlantischen Ozean, dazu kommen wirbellose Tiere wie Anemonen, Quallen, Röhrenwürmer, Muscheln, Schnecken und Krebse. Besondere Attraktionen sind der 2 Mio. Liter fassende Open Ocean Tank, in dem Haie und Rochen zu sehen sind, und der Living Kelp Forest (Seetang-Wald), der die Tierwelt an der Küste widerspiegelt. An einem Sandstrand mit Pinguinen und Robben werden Ebbe und Flut am Kap simuliert.
