Ocean Park Shark Mystique

Ocean Park's Shark Mystique is one of Asia's largest shark exhibits. A wonderful educational and interactive presentation of over a hundred sharks and rays of all kinds in a fantastic layout over three levels and a 360 panoramic display.

You find Shark Mystique in the Marine World area of the Summit, the older area of the park, where the old "Reef Atoll" exhibit used to be.

This has been totally redone and the results are quite impressive. The Reef Atoll area is fondly remembered by many, this was the original Ocean Park Aquatic Exhibit where many fell in love with marine life. The new Shark Mystique exhibit does it justice, and many needed accesibility enhancements have also been implemented, the exhibit is wheelchair friendly.

You can't miss the distinct entrance with the shark's mouth at the end of a corridor of old fishermen's fishing village stilt houses...
