The Ocean Discovery Zone

The Ocean Discovery Zone is an outreach programme that travels the length and breadth of the Southwest, run by a team of professionals from conservationists to marine biologists, showcasing the wonders of the Ocean. It culminates in the large installation at Devon County Show and is one of the biggest features on the showground, where visitors are invited to engage in fun and meaningful activities and resources,designed to connect them to Devon’s wealth of coastal waters.

We are passionate about inclusivity and accessibility and take elements of the Ocean Discovery Zone to schools, clubs and organisations throughout the year. We offer a wide range of workshops and activities that can be tailored to suit age/theme and include fabulous, immersive activities and experiments, using lots of fun resources, covering STEAM – Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Maths, as well as Environment and Conservation, Community and more!
