Hop on board the Aquarium and join its quirky community of scientists and snorkellors in their mission to create a cute visual reference of the future for real reef life of Port Noarlunga South Australia.


The Aquarium has had a phenomenal update and is now a submarine research facility bustling with divers, snorkelers and marine scientists each with stories and secrets about their life alongside the ocean. As Captain Red says 'the world of the ocean doesn't end at its surface- there's a whole ecosystem of people that live their lives around the big blue'

Just hit the 'a' to return to the lab at anytime, where you can view FishID on Data Dot's computer, jump directly into the reef, or view a map of the local Port Noarlunga Reef Sanctuary Zone and meet the people and fish that frolick there!

There's also a bunch of new ways to contribute to this project that are built into the came as well as provided here. 
You can submit a personal story or anecdote to the Aquarium
You can also submit some data or suggestionsabout species or locations
And you can view Azzurro's very own Complete Map of Snorkel Spots live online
For all other enquiries, you can reach the crew of the Aquarium by emailing azzurroreef@gmail.com 

Happy adventuring!
