This June, Sydney Aquarium will
unveil a brand new exhibit to the public – Tropical Bay of Rays – one of
fourteen new exhibits set to re-open as part of the attraction’s extensive $10M
refurbishment programme.
The completely new area will give
visitors to Sydney’s iconic attraction an up-close glimpse into the lives of
the graceful marine creatures who will reside in a centralised tank, surrounded
by tropical palms, a pink illuminated sunset scene and a visual landscape which
will take visitors to a tropical haven in the heart of the city.
A variety of ray species will call
the new Bay of Rays home, many of which are making their debut appearance at
the attraction. It will be difficult to miss the electric blue spots of
the Fantail Rays and the Blue-spotted Maskray, and with other species including
the spectacular Leopard Sharks, White-spotted Guitarfish and Leopard Whiprays,
the new tropical oasis will be a sight not to be missed.
The Bay of Rays will also offer a
variety of interactive opportunities for visitors including daily feeds, talks
and an opportunity to see aquarists get up-close inside the tank with the
graceful floor-skimming animals.
The new Bay of Rays exhibit is just one of many exciting activities on offer to the public ahead of the attraction’s grand reopening as SEA LIFE Sydney Aquarium this September.
