Ocean Park offers HK resident-exclusive entry pass for unlimited visits in summer

Ocean Park will offer unlimited exclusive entry pass to Hong Kong residents, which gives holders flexibility to visit the park as many time as they want from now until the end of September.

The park also launched its new attraction spot Explorer R today, a new interactive technology experience hub with an array of additional conservation and education elements.

The entry pass costs less than two regular admission tickets. It is priced at HK$760 for adults, HK$415 for children and HK$605 for full-time students.

As for the new attraction spot Explorer R, it is located at the Park’s Whiskers Harbour and other designated locations at the Waterfront area.

The new spot is a technology-driven attraction that applies a stimulating mix of virtual games and interactive fun play to spark children’s imagination and scientific thinking through experiential learning.

Kids, by creating their own AI SuperAnimal and going through the “think, try and modify” process with Redd, will be motivated to figure out how the body parts of animals actually help them adapt to their habitats.

For children aged from two to five, they can join the Camouflage Kids! and Ninja in Nature with their parents, in which they will find out more on local biodiversity and observe how animals protect themselves from predators using camouflage through fun games.

The park also designed the Sea Land Expedition for children aged from six to 11. It allows them to travel to different locations of the park, from Rainforest, North Pole Encounter to an African Adventure to observe animals up-close. A coding session will also be included.

Kids can then visit Explorer Stops located at different locations inside and outside Whiskers Harbour as they step out of Explorer R. They can conduct special missions to observe and explore nature using their five senses.

Families can also sign up for four Whiskers Harbour Maker Workshops hosted by the popular Whiskers Village Team for some DIY upcycling activities while enjoying quality family time and becoming more eco-friendly together.

The inauguration ceremony of Explorer R was officiated by Secretary for Commerce and Economic Development Edward Yau Tang-wah and other guests.

“Ocean Park is dedicated to conservation and education...Children will now get to learn about nature and conservation in a much more creative, experiential and tech-powered way that’s never been done on this scale before at the Park”, said Paulo Pong Kin-yee, Deputy Chairman of Ocean Park.
