Virtual Reality-Experience 'Reef Dive'

12 December 2019 | 1.00 PM - 5.00 PM

Once more we are presenting you with a very special Christmas gift. But this time you are not soaring through the air with 'Birdly' but instead going underground. In the Virtual Reality Adventure 'Reef Dive – Explore the Ocean' you glide as turtle Rhea through a magnificently thriving reef, encountering other sea creatures. With your own body you determine where and how fast you want to dive and what you want to see up close. You explore a beautiful, colourful coral reef that is home to all kinds of beings. But the fascination does not last long since the destruction of this fragile ecosystem through climate change and pollution soon becomes apparent.

One dive costs CHF 5.– .
