About the tour
​
The Marine Biology, Conservation and Wildlife Tour provides students with the opportunity to immerse themselves in a range of hands-on, practical activities in Western Australia. From ecological bushwalks and stargazing in the outback, to fish dissection with marine biologists and charitable conservation projects, this tour aims to expose, explore and nurture students, to discover for themselves, the wonders of science and the natural world. Topics range from climate change and botany to studying the impact of introduced species on native species. Students will work with professional scientists, and become scientists themselves, by observing and recording real-life data such as water quality and flowering plant seed patterns. Students will also have the opportunity to get up close and personal with Australia's unique wildlife.
