Vision & mission

“Our vision is to foster love, respect and understanding of our oceans to inspire support for their future well-being. We cannot do this effectively or with credibility if our own operations impact negatively on the environment” – Dr Patrick Garratt, Managing Director

Vision statement

The Two Oceans Aquarium fosters love, respect and understanding of our oceans to inspire support for their future well-being.

Mission

We aim to remain a financially viable and prominent visitor attraction in the Western Cape, in order to continue to raise ocean awareness through our quality exhibits, our conservation programmes and our education outreach.

Further, we aim to

• become one of the leading environmental education centres in the southern hemisphere;

• promote conservation and sustainable use of the environment, building public awareness and promoting advocacy;

• build on our uniqueness;

• be a fun place for the children of today and the children of tomorrow; be a place of learning through discovery.
