Sharks at the Two Ocean Aquarium
The I&J Predator Exhibit contains a collection of predators. Without a doubt, the ragged-tooth sharks are the most popular animals in the Two Oceans Aquarium and are visible through an enormous 11m-wide by 4m-high acrylic panel or semi-tunnel which hugs the perimeter of the exhibit.
This exhibit also showcases an impressive collection of predatory fish from the South African south coast. These include shoals of yellowtail, garrick, dusky kob and black mussel cracker.
There are several spectacular viewing points which affords visitors close encounters with the sharks, rays, a loggerhead turtle, a green sea turtle and fish.
Got a scuba licence? You can dive in this exhibit. The animals in the I&J Predator Exhibit are fed daily at 15h00. Sharks are fed at 15h00 on Sundays.
