These courses represent the opportunity to explore highly topical environmental issues, providing pupils and teachers the useful tools to learn how to remedy the damage caused by human activity, starting a coexistence harmonious and sustainable with Nature and its protagonists. Using particular areas of the Aquarium, through observation of display tanks and specific teaching aids, learning these concepts will be easier than in a lesson in the classroom, creating in the children a strong sense of responsibility and the incentive to take care of our planet.

Plastic: a material that has radically revolutionized our daily life, today represents a serious environmental problem.
The "Our Ocean" campaign, born in Malta in 2017, involves all the Aquariums of the World in a single appeal against the dispersion of waste at sea and in particular plastic objects: whether they are Macro, Micro or Nano Plastics does not matter, as long as they stay out of the Sea and the Environment, being disposed of according to the law.
Let's find out what happens to Plastic in the Sea through the tropical tanks of Aquarius: every year, millions of creatures die with their stomachs full of these materials, an example of this are the turtles saved at our recovery center!
Knowing the problem, together we can solve it by becoming the future champions of the sea.
The activity lasts 1h. The participation has a cost of Euro 3 per student (in addition to the entrance ticket), For teachet the activity is free. Fares are for minimum 15 paying people.
They are born from a small egg, ready to fight against suffocation to get out of the sand and catapult into the sea, where they will see some good ones, without anyone having taught them anything! What courage! Let's start a journey together to get to know all the existing sea turtle species, with their histories, habits of life and the areas to which they belong, focusing on those that swim in the Mediterranean Sea, including the Caretta caretta which has started a few years ago in spawn on our beaches. The Livorno Aquarium is also a Recovery and Rehabilitation Center, so it will be possible to visit the areas dedicated to this purpose, listening to the stories of courage of the 27 sea turtles who, thanks to us, were able to return to the sea. Become their friend, help us protect them !!

The Mediterranean Sea is the second area in the world with the highest rate of biodiversity after the Amazon forest, which is why the most precious areas must be protected through national and international actions, such as the establishment of the "Pèlagos" Cetacean Sanctuary, a cross-border area where whales and dolphins live, because it is rich in nutrients capable of making plankton proliferate every day of the year: a true Miracle! The Tuscan coasts are included in this area and it is our duty, as an Aquarium and an OTB information point, to present the species present in this area to the public, to create a network of people able to know them and communicate their sightings to us. or to the port authorities! So come and meet whales, dolphins, sharks and sea turtles to become guardians of the Sanctuary and its Biodiversity!
