Sea Life Centre - Opening for Its Second Season this Saturday
Friday, May 15, 2026 at 7:44AM Hello Thetis Islanders!
The Sea Life Centre (SLC) is back for its second season at Telegraph Harbour Marina!
Come say hello this Saturday, May 16 between 11am-3pm for our opening day, or 10am-3pm on Sunday.
For those who haven't visited before, the Sea Life Centre is a floating gazebo and marine discovery hub, run in collaboration between ThINC, Telegraph Harbour Marina, and the Ladysmith Maritime Society. Inside, you'll find our beloved Seaquarium and interactive touch-tank, freshly stocked for the season by the Thetis Island Marine Explorers (TIME) dive team with locally collected sea life - nudibranchs, gunnels, crabs, and other fascinating creatures from our very own waters.
ThINC staff and volunteers keep the centre running daily, carefully monitoring salinity, temperature, and feeding under the guidance of marine biologist, Andy Lamb.
Whether you're a longtime fan of the Seaquarium or visiting the Sea Life Centre for the first time, we'd love to see you there.
