Touch the Sea, Mapua

Click on the map for larger view to follow our virtual holiday tour.


Touch the Sea in Mapua  was a lot of fun for everybody. You can touch many of the creatures of the sea, including a huge manta ray, huge eels, baby sharks, many fish, starfish, anemones.


These baby rays were more interested in peeking at us than being touched, but they did venture up occasionally.


There were also displays that you couldn't touch, like this octopus...

and these flounders.

The restroom was appropriately decorated, too!



This is a great place to take the family if you are in the area.

We have a wonderful aquarium in Cape Town, too (Water World) - a wonderful place to visit for young and old, alike. There's something so special about being able to feel/touch some of these sea creatures...sheer magic for children, especially :)

I'm having fun on this tour - keep those posts coming ;)
