Designed in collaboration with IRIS Game and with an immersive scenography created by Camille Renversade, this Escape Game offers you a fun and friendly adventure to experience with family or friends.
An escape room,
two game modes to choose from
Whether you are young sailors or seasoned veterans, a thrilling race against time awaits your crew! Two game modes are available:

Scenario
It all begins in the science laboratory of Princess Alice II...
At sea for several days, you are part of the elite of marine exploration gathered around Prince Albert I during his expedition off Cape Verde in 1901. Suddenly, the study of deep-sea species desired by the Prince seems to be compromised by a violent storm that has driven you to take refuge in the laboratory. Bad luck: the door has closed behind you! The engines have stopped; the boat is beginning to suffer from the winds and tides; and the net that was lowered into the sea bed to discover new species is threatening to break… Can you make it back to land without losing your precious discoveries?

Long called “flower animal”, “stone tree” or “sensitive plant”, the coral is a marine animal that lives in colonies with other individuals of its species. Together, they form true oases of life: the coral reefs. These are home to over 4,000 species of fish and thousands of plants and animals of different shapes and colours. 30% of marine biodiversity is found in them, even though they represent only 0.2% of the oceans!

Dans la peau des aquariologistes
Pour favoriser une approche ludique, l’observation et la manipulation sont privilégiées.
Tels des apprentis scientifiques, vos enfants prélèvent des animaux microscopiques dans les bassins, nourrissent les tortues sur la terrasse panoramique, découvrent la magie des récifs coralliens ou plongent dans leur imaginaire pour rédiger un conte sur l’Océan…
Dans le cadre magique du Musée océanographique
C’est dans un lieu chargé d’histoires que votre enfant aura le privilège de visiter les coulisses des aquariums, l’enclos des tortues terrestres et même la réserve où se trouvent la nurserie et l’hôpital des animaux.
Entourés d’une équipe aux petits soins
Chaque enfant possède son propre bureau d’explorateur avec tout le matériel dont il aura besoin tout au long de la semaine.
Avec des activités ludiques et créatives
Entre la préparation de la nourriture des animaux, leur nourrissage, une chasse aux trésors, des expériences sensorielles… Chaque jour offre son lot d’émotions !
Pour des souvenirs gravés à jamais
Le Club Oceano, c’est aussi du partage et des rencontres avec d’autres jeunes passionnés, futurs ambassadeurs de l’Océan.
Let's experience the ocean while having fun
I really enjoyed feeding the sharks, and it was also great to interview explorers. The animators were also very nice. I hope I can come back one day.
