About the event

Have you ever wondered how marine molluscs move, why sharks have teeth on their skin, and how whales perform deep dives?

In this interactive, hands-on session we’ll discover more about some of the amazing creatures that live in our oceans and how they have evolved different ways of moving through the water by carrying out fun and exciting scientific investigations.
