Step onto the Ocean, Freshwater, and Us giant floor map and journey through ocean basins, freshwater ecosystems, and watersheds across Canada! This immersive, walkable map, developed by Ocean Week Canada and Canadian Geographic Education, lets you physically follow the flow of water from rivers to coasts, discovering how all waterways are connected. Explore the growing network of Marine Protected Areas, learn about the life within these waterways, and use augmented reality and 360° video to bring the map to life. Whether you’re from the coast or the prairies, this hands-on experience will transform the way you see your connection to the ocean. Included with Science World admission.
