Join us as we go mad with Monster Mania at the Maritime Museum during April holidays!

As sea monsters take over the Museum, drop in and stay for plenty of fun filled activities around these fascinating creatures of the past!

Have eye-boggling fun decorating a marine maze-monster. Explore prehistoric marine reptiles through the Fossil Fun activity sheets or even play hide-and-seek through our galleries with our miniature LEGO® marine adventurers who are on the hunt for something big in The Maritime Monster Mystery trail.

Join our four junior palaeontologists on a video journey as they explore behind the scenes at the WA Museum to uncover the science behind finding fossils in WA.  

You can also explore the ancient seas where prehistoric marine reptiles roam in our digital screen interactive, and discover which of these large animals have survived through to the modern day.
