Create an itinerary including Coral World Ocean Park
Observe and inspect marine life at Coral World Ocean Park, an "open-water" site based around a system of tanks fed by ocean waters. A highlight is an 80,000 gallon open tank that allows wildlife in from above as well as by water. The park offers humerous sea lion shows, as they perform with skilled trainers, and touch pools with various creatures. Pick up snacks and refreshments in the shark bar. Be sure to descend to the depths of the undersea observatory to take in life on a natural coral reef 4.5 m (15 ft) below the surface. Planning East End trip won't be overwhelming when you use Klarna Trips's itinerary maker.

  • I had an amazing experience. The park employees were friendly and very informative. I did the sea trek with Wyatt, Eve, and Glen and they were phenomenal. They kept my mind at ease and I’ve really it was a fun experience. Highly recommend visiting coral world for all the sea animals. Also saw some birds. Didn’t get a chance to see much of the dolphins but the little I saw was great.
  • It was a great time very friendly and informative. A different kind of aquarium its very personal and hands-on we did the kayak with the dolphins and enjoyed the experience very much . The kayaks have a clear plastic bottom so you can see through but no need because the dolphins come up to the kayak and say hello. We do plan to return to do the sea trek. The tower is a underwater viewing structure that was pretty cool. All of the staff was very friendly and so happy to assist you.
  • Cute little aquarium. Fun place to visit if you have young kids. Plenty of experience for really high prices like swimming with dolphins, sea lion interaction, scuba experience. We just take a walk from the beach and spend around 45 min walking around the aquarium. Price was just under $25 per adults on the gate. We saw dolphins, fishes, turtles, iguanas. We got education and interactions with the parrots and was great experience. Unfortunately we wasn't able to see any sea lions. Definitely something cool to do if you wanna take a break from the beach
  • My husband and I had a wonderful time at Coral World. He does not like to swim, so the underwater observatory was perfect for us! The aquatic life and coral reef was beautiful. The park is very clean and well kept. The staff were super friendly and helpful, and we liked that we can roam the park at our own pace to see the various exotic animals and marine life. I really enjoyed to learn that the park rescues and rehabilitates. We saw tortoises have their shell cleaned, lorikeets in pairs, parrots talking, stingrays, turtles mating, iguanas, dolphins being fed and playing, and a variety of fish. There’s also a cute black cat there. We definitely recommend. A great place to take pictures, especially at the observatory tower. After we roamed the park, we got some drinks and went to coral beach which was at the end of the boardwalk.
  • We spent a really fun rainy day here. Three adults and we just did the general admission tickets; spent from 12-4pm. We really enjoyed all of the educational programs- the schedule was clear and easy to follow. We saw shark, sea turtle and fish feedings and a dolphin training lesson. It’s a small park but had lots of different things to see. The underwater ocean observatory was pretty incredible. We’d like to return and do one of the animal encounters next time. This would be a great day trip for anyone with kids or adults interested in wildlife. The snack bar was average- not great- but not bad either. We had the cheeseburger and fries with a strawberry smoothie. It features a full bar too.
