Coral World Ocean Park, Marine life park in Saint Thomas, US Virgin Islands.
Coral World Ocean Park is a marine life facility on Saint Thomas featuring observation towers and tanks with Caribbean fauna. The center displays fish, sea turtles, rays, and other species in different habitat settings, from coral reefs to deeper zones.
The park was founded to protect Caribbean marine species and educate the public about ocean ecosystems. Over time, the facility developed various conservation projects and breeding programs for threatened species.
The facility derives its name from its focus on coral ecosystems and the ocean world they create. Visitors watch marine animals in their settings throughout the day, learning how these creatures exist in the Caribbean waters.
The park features wheelchair-accessible pathways and ramps, making most areas available for visitors with mobility needs. Bring sun protection with you, as many outdoor viewing areas are exposed to direct sun and can get quite hot.
A special highlight is the Sea Trek program, where visitors walk on the ocean floor wearing specialized helmets with breathing tubes. This experience lets people who cannot scuba dive interact with marine animals at their level.
