The Shark Bay Discovery & Visitor Centre is home to the Fire on the Water exhibition.

The 15 minute 3D film and accompanying exhibit tells the story of the battle between HMAS Sydney II and HSK Kormoran, tracing the events of this World War II Naval battle 200 kilometres off the coast of Shark Bay.

Astonishing deep-sea 3D imagery from the 2015 expeditions to the wreck sites, under taken by WA Museum, Curtin University and DOF Subsea have been used to create an interpretative timeline of the battle and to offer insights into what happened when the ships met off Shark Bay 77 years ago.

Complimentary movie series can be viewed at Geraldton Museum & Carnarvon Visitor Centre. 

The exhibit is permanent, free and screens every half hour during opening hours.
