Giant kelp provides food and shelter for a vibrant ecosystem.

Look closely and you’ll discover an astonishing diversity of fish and invertebrates swimming here and clinging to the kelp and algae.

Listen to live audio of our Kelp Forest feeding program and watch divers hand-feed sharks, fishes and other animals. If you're lucky, a wolf eel will emerge to gulp some squid or fish.
