The iconic ocean-themed and AZA-accredited resort Atlantis The Palm Dubai launched new engaging and educational experiences about marine life, animal welfare and ocean conservation for all ages.

With yet another school holiday around the corner, Dubai’s younger generation will for sure be entertained this half term with a series of programmes that are both fun and informative.

While some programmes have been designed for children only, others are perfect for the whole family, enabling families to create meaningful experiences.

Marine Biologist Programmes for minis (ages 3-6) and masters (12-16) will equip budding biologists with knowledge about life forms’ and the habitats in the world’s oceans, while behind the scenes tours will allow them to get up close and personal with Atlantis’s marine residents. For those that dare, there is also a Marine Animal Adventure offering a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to explore the depths of a shark-filled lagoon.
