Initiatives
Direct action for conservation
We have been involved in the creation of Canada's first no-take marine protected area, as well as wetlands restoration, shoreline cleanups, marine mammal rescue and rehabilitations, population surveys of marine mammals and intertidal fishes and much more.
Ocean Wise conducts original studies of habitats and animals in the wild and
on site in order to advance our knowledge necessary to enhance environmental conservation.
The Vancouver Aquarium will be temporarily closed to the public starting Tuesday, March 17, 2020 and all programming will be cancelled as a preventative measure to help stop the spread of COVID-19 through our community. Learn more.
