Don't have fins? No problem! Coral World Ocean Park offers you the chance to get a fish-eye view of sea anemones, starfish, sea cucumbers, stingrays, and more, without the fins.
Coral World Ocean Park is a great full- or half-day family activity. Spread out across 5 acres, the park offers a variety of exhibits, touch pools, aquariums, and observatories for learning about underwater life. Plus, Sea Trekkin' allows you to plunge deeper and walk along the sea floor for even better views of the sea's treasures.
Here are just a few of the things included in your Coral World admission:
- Undersea Observatory: Stand 15 feet (4.6 m) below the water’s surface for spectacular views of a natural coral reef.
- Caribbean Reef Encounter: Watch the colorful tropical fish, sea anemones, lobsters, conchs, and other marine creatures living amongst one of the world’s largest live coral reef exhibits.
- Marine Gardens: Explore over 20 aquariums, offering close-up views of seahorses, burrowing jaw fish, octopus, and more.
- Deep Reef Tank: Get unique views of the bellies and mouths of sea predators, including sharks and moray eels.
- Touch Pool: Hold starfish and sea cucumbers
- … and much more!
Don a special underwater helmet, sink to the ocean floor, and follow a guide as you explore a sub-aquatic wonderland. Walk along a trail encircling coral beds, teeming with colorful critters. See all this without even taking off your glasses or getting your hair wet!
Coral World also offers additional activities including snorkeling, diving, parasailing, and a semi-submarine ride. Plus, the park offers gift shops for souvenirs, cafés if you get hungry, and showers and locker rentals for snorkelers, swimmers, and divers.
