Ocean Park is separated into two parts, the Headlands and the Lowlands, connected via cable car. Lowlands rides are mostly kiddie attractions, while Headlands attractions are those which gets your adrenaline pumping and your guts churning. We spent one whole day in Ocean Park. Getting there was simple, just get out of Central MTR (Zhong Wan) and take a shuttle bus and it will bring you to the entrance, no sweat.
Flying Dragon, this was the first triple loop roller coaster that I took. The ride was exhilarating, especially when you reached the top of the loop, white knuckles on the handle, feet pressing hard against the front of the carriage, eyes wide open! We went on for a second time, but the fun worn off slightly since there were no more surprises.
The Abyss might be the inspiration to Genting Highland's Space Shot. The difference was that Abyss slowly brings you to the top, and drops you down and bounces a few rounds before settling down at the bottom. I did not try this ride though, still couldn't get over the fear of such rides...
Dolphins which were resident to the park perform to cheers of crowds in the Ocean theater. There were a total of three dolphins and one sea lion in the performance. Adults and children were equally captivated by the performance.
Sea Jelly Spectacular is a must visit. It's an aquarium dedicated to nothing but jelly fishes. The way they moved gently, floating idly in the water, hid well the fact that some were extremely poisonous and deadly.Such coincidence; that the jelly fish on the top resembled 3 circles arranged in such a way, giving hint to the next attraction that we went to the next day.
