Fodor's Expert Review Coral World Ocean Park

This interactive aquarium and water-sports center lets you experience a variety of sea life and other animals. In the 2-acre dolphin habitat, you can swim with these graceful creatures. There are also several outdoor pools where you can pet baby sharks, feed stingrays, touch starfish, and view endangered sea turtles. During the Sea Trek Helmet Dive, you walk along an underwater trail wearing a helmet that provides a continuous supply of air. You can also try Snuba, a cross between snorkeling and scuba diving. Swim with a sea lion for the chance to play ball or get a big, wet, whiskered kiss. The park also has an offshore underwater observatory, an 80,000-gallon coral reef exhibit (one of the largest in the world), and a nature trail with native ducks and tortoises. Daily feedings take place at most exhibits.
