Participant Criteria

Get the experience of a lifetime and go behind the scenes at Polar Bear Shores.

You’ll be guided by a Sea World Education Officer on an exciting journey of discovery as you learn about the Polar bears' impressive abilities, their care at Sea World and the conservation of this amazing species.

Polar Bear Shores is home to Hudson, Nelson, Liya and now cub Mishka. These are the only Polar bears in Australia, and the exhibit replicates the Arctic summer.

You may have the opportunity to see the kitchen area where all their food is prepared, as well as view the dens and play areas where the Polar bears spend time when not on exhibit
