Marine Life Park at Resorts World Sentosa (RWS)

[moscowites]

Slated to open by the end of this year, the Marine Life Park will house some 100, 000 marine creatures from 800 species around the world, but mainly from South-East Asia's Coral Triangle. Construction is already complete and 15 per cent of the animals are now under quarantine in Sungei Tengah.

The key attraction of the park would be 27 wild-caught dolphins which the park decided to buy and showcase. The dolphins are currently residing in Subic Bay in the Philippines.

Hailing from the Sydney Aquarium, Oceanairum Director and Chief Curator of the Marine Life Park, Mr Craig Sowden mentioned that the animals that would be displayed will not be caught with the use of cyanides or explosives. All the animals are fed specially imported pellets or frozen squid, fish and prawns.

After the the park is up and running, the facility used to quarantine the animals at Sungei Tengah will be used for breeding research, both for the park and in collaboration with other institutions.

SINGAPORE - Resorts World Sentosa (RWS) announced today that its Marine Life Park (MLP) will open to the public on Thursday, Nov 22.

Both attractions will be opened from 10am to 6pm daily, while operating hours for the S.E.A Aquarium will be from 10am to 7pm from Dec 8 onwards.

Tickets to the S.E.A Aquarium are priced at $29 for each adult and $20 each for children and senior citizens.

Entry to the Adventure Cove Waterpark is the same price.

But not all attractions at the park will be opened on Thursday. As such, visitors will be given rebates of a $5 meal voucher for every ticket purchased, valid for use at RWS.

Visitors will also not get to see the dolphins on Thursday - even as the first batch arrived yesterday - because they are in quarantine.

The park, which is set to have its grand opening on Dec 7, will eventually have 25 dolphins.

The media had a special sneak preview today. Check back for more photo
