Sea Life was a nice little stop — not a huge place, so you can easily see everything in just a couple of hours. It’s perfect if you’re looking for a short and fun activity. My absolute favorite part was the bird sanctuary 🦜 — such a cool experience! They hand you sticks with food, and the parrots just fly right up to you. So colorful, friendly, and it makes for the cutest photos! Overall, a fun ...

I visited on a Saturday. I wasn't sure if it was open because the place was completely empty. There were few attractions for the price of the tickets. They're expensive. The food stalls are closed. You can see, huge turtles, seals, and a shark tank with fish. Birds . And dolphins

The park looked a lot bigger than I remember when I was a kid, but a lot has changed. At least they h...

Overall, the ticket price did ...

This was not originally part of our plans while visiting the island but I had pulled a calf muscle prior to the trip and re-aggrevated it while on a local hike. We were looking for things to do that did not involve hiking and could potentially rent a wheel chair. They were great about the wheel chair and made borrowing and returning it very easy. The exhibits were great and we followed the shows/t...
