Marine Evening: 5 September 2023

Sunfish: Giants of the Ocean

Dive into the fascinating world of the world's heaviest bony fish, the ocean sunfish. With their unique appearance featuring a flattened body and prominent dorsal fin, they're true marvels of the open sea. Only recently scientists have started to pay more attention to these huge animals, and have revealed fabulous insights behind these mysterious creatures. 

The event will be held at the Great White House, a stunning location that provides a captivating ambience for an evening of discovery. You will be surrounded by fellow enthusiasts who share a passion for marine conservation, creating an atmosphere of collaboration and inspiration. Delicious soup and bread will be served after the session. This event offers an excellent chance to forge new connections and engage in meaningful discussions with like-minded individuals.

Extra parking is available at the back of the Great White House. 

Remember to please put phones on silent.
