New Tourist Attraction Opens at Coral World in the U.S. Virgin Islands

An aviary has opened at Coral World Ocean Park in the U.S. Virgin Islands. The new attraction is called Lorikeet Garden. It’s a 1,600-square-foot walkthrough aviary with 20 birds, including 17 brilliantly colored lorikeet parrots. Guests may buy a cup of nectar to feed the birds, which are known for being people-friendly.

Coral World also has trails, aquariums, diving and snorkeling, a “shark encounter” program that allows visitors to pet a baby shark and enter a shark tank, and a “Sea Trek” in which you walk underwater on a trail, wearing a helmet that supplies air.
