Confront any fear of sharks that you may have by swimming and snorkeling with these much maligned creatures, a fish that has changed little over millions of years. Although you may be apprehensive at first, be assured that these sharks are accustomed to being handled by humans and sharing the water. After easing into the pool, you will be welcome to feed and pet the sharks and snorkel around them for an up-close underwater view. You will notice that shark skin feels like sandpaper because it’s covered with grooved, teeth-like scales that point toward the tail to reduce friction when the shark swims. This shark encounter will be a one-of-a-kind experience that you will not soon forget. There are also plenty of other activities to enjoy elsewhere at the park. Feel free to snorkel in the reef aquarium, swim in the sheltered pools, wander through the rainforest and walk about the bird sanctuary.
