Competition Open 10th Aug - 1st Sep

Calling all explorers! This summer, The Historic Dockyard Chatham has teamed up with legendary wildlife expert and adventurer, Steve Backshall, for an extraordinary journey beneath the waves.

Explore the planet’s coolest underwater habitats and discover the secrets of its most fascinating creatures with Steve Backshall’s Awesome Oceans Family Trail. As visitors explore the site, they’ll tackle an action-packed trail loaded with hands-on challenges, mind-blowing stories, and interactive missions, all inspired by Steve’s adventures.

Explore six epic Ocean Zones.

Step aboard for a self-led expedition. Come face-to-face with amazing marine life, from the tiny but mighty Bobtail Squid of the English Channel to the giant Dwarf Minke Whales of the Atlantic and the Emperor Penguins surviving the brutal Antarctic freeze.

Along the way, adventurers will track down the real-world dangers facing our oceans and take on challenges to find out how everyone can help protect the incredible creatures that call them home.

Collect Exclusive Cards.

Every young explorer will score a set of exclusive Awesome Oceans collectable cards. Use them to complete the quest and unlock official Ocean Guardian status, then take them home to continue the mission to save our seas.

With Steve’s passion for wildlife guiding the way, visitors will experience the ocean like never before.

Be wowed by the Ocean Photographer of the Year Exhibition.

Kick off the expedition with the spectacular Ocean Photographer of the Year exhibition. Prepare to be amazed by jaw-dropping images that capture the breathtaking beauty, raw power and fragility of life beneath the waves.
