This is the basic package at Sea Life Park Hawaii. You’ll get admission to the park and access to all the exciting marine exhibitions and demonstrations. Attractions include:
Dolphin Cove
Watch dolphins perform playful acrobatics in this ocean-side lagoon that even features its own private island. You’ll sit in a large open-air theater and can also enjoy great coastline views.
Hawaiian Reef
This huge reef aquarium offers close up views of Hawaii’s underwater ecosystem. You’ll get to see more than 2,000 reef animals, including turtles, stingrays, colorful tropical fish and even sharks.
Stingray Lagoon
Get face to face with these fascinating creatures of the ocean. This lagoon provides an authentic environment for these shy marine animals.
Hawaiian Ocean Theater
This theater features a large glass tank and you’ll be able to watch dolphins perform from above and below the surface of the water. You’ll also learn about the newest training techniques and Sea Life Park’s conservation efforts.
Sea Turtle Lagoon
Not only is this lagoon an interesting exhibit – it is also a breeding sanctuary for the endangered Hawaiian green sea turtles (honu). To date, more than 2,200 hatchlings have been produced here and many of them have been released to the open ocean.
Penguin Habitat
Here you’ll be able to see 11 so-called Humboldt penguins, which are native to South America and also an endangered species. This habitat at Sea Life Park serves as a comfortable breeding site.
Rocky Shores
This exhibit showcases Hawaii’s intertidal wildlife. Intertidal is the area that is sometimes land and sometimes sea. You’ll get to see animals that have made this intertidal zone their home.
This general admission package will give you an overview of the park at a very reasonable price. If you want to get even closer to some of the marine animals and maybe even get wet, check out the other packages.
Standard park hours are 10:30 am – 5:00 pm. The last show is at 3:30pm.
