This educational centre encourages awareness, protection, conservation and the sustainable fishing of sharks worldwide. The state-of-the-art exhibits, ranging from a touch pool to a microscope bench, appeal to adults and children alike. It's part of a not-for-profit foundation with similar centres in Florida and the Seychelles.
