SANTA ANA, Calif., June 8, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Dive into an unforgettable summer adventure at our brand-new Discovery Cube Sea Lab & Ocean Encounter coming only to Discovery Cube Orange County, June 21! Experience the thrill of touching a live shark and learn why their skin helps them glide through the water. Discover the captivating wonders of a tidepool community and how their diversity supports the entire planet.  Also, for a limited-time this summer, immerse the whole family in an interactive aquatic wonderland known as Ocean Encounter where you'll explore the zones of the ocean and discover what makes them each so unique. Don't miss this extraordinary opportunity to connect with the wonders living just beneath the surface and be inspired to protect our coastal community.

"As we work to unveil our new hands-on marine science exhibit, we're embarking on a journey to ignite young minds with a profound appreciation for their environment," said Joe Adams, CEO, Discovery Cube. "By providing a hands-on experience, we hope to empower the next generation to become stewards for these animals and their habitats."

The Discovery Cube Sea Lab will feature hands-on exhibits including a shark and ray touch pool and a tidepool touch tank where visitors can explore and learn what makes each inhabitant perfectly suited for their environment. The space will also feature a new film by our in-house, 7-time Emmy award winners, Cube Studios. Ocean Encounter will showcase the beauty and diversity of life in the ocean with various interactive stations that focus on the shoreline, coral reef, kelp forest, open ocean, twilight and midnight zones, and abyss and trenches. It will also feature larger-than-life inflatable models including a whale, squid, and kelp forest that transport guests to each ocean environment and inspire curiosity to dive deeper into what makes each zone vital to our ocean's health.
