The Experience
Here, visitors can enjoy our sandy beach, surrounded by many curious, friendly sharks and rays, while staying (mostly) dry - only getting feet/legs wet.
Stepping into the water with them brings a whole new level of excitement and fear as these animals reveal their endearing personalities and steal the hearts of visitors they meet. Visitors quickly develop a lifelong love and understanding of these misunderstood species and marine ecosystems.
