What it's like
Coral World Ocean Park is a marine park on St Thomas built around live marine life. Its exhibits show sharks, tropical fish and Caribbean birds, with a Coral Reef Observatory where you look at a reef without getting wet.
A visit is a mix of looking and doing. You can walk the nature trails, see the sea lions and dolphins, try snorkel options such as Power Snorkel and Snuba, or snorkel with juvenile sharks. General admission covers the park's marine life, trails, dining and shopping.
Good to know
- Dolphin Splash & Swim and Sea Lion Splash & Swim are for ages 7 and up; the dolphin meet-and-greet is short.
- Keep swimwear on under your clothes for the water activities, and dress comfortably for everything else.
- Roads outside Charlotte Amalie are narrow and drivers take turns aggressively, so a taxi is the easier choice.
- Sea Trek is a guided walk along the ocean floor exploring coral reefs, for ages 8 and up.
