If you liked it before, you will love our brand new EnergyAustralia Seal Show... we have a few surprises in store for you! The new 950 seat theatre is the perfect place to learn more about seals and their marine environment. For more than 20 years visitors have enjoyed watching our graceful seals show off their natural abilities including catching fish, climbing and diving.
Just like you and I, our seals also take days off. Here are some of the seals you may meet today.
Californian Sea-lions like Michi are the world's most commonly trained seals. Michi was born in 1999 in Stuttgart Zoo, Germany, and when fully grown he'll weigh around 300kg! He is the most experienced performer of the show.
Australian Sea-lions like Malie, Miya and Lexie are the rarest seals in the world. Malie is still young, and when fully grown he'll weigh as much as Michi. Lexie loves encouragement from the crowd.
Born in July 1997, New Zealand Fur-seal Tathra is the oldest and smallest star of the team. Unable to return to the wild after being found injured on a local beach, Tathra has been delighting visitors for years with her nimble moves and graceful dives.
Mav, also a New Zealand Fur-Seal, arrived from rehabilitation in 2002. He has quickly moved from seal preschool to being one of the most reliable members of the show - demonstrating just how intelligent and quick-learning these seals are.
