Sea World unveils Ray Reef and Jet Rescue
POSTED 20 Jan 2009 . BY Tim Nash
Sea World on the Gold Coast in Australia has launched Ray Reef, an interactive educational exhibit including 100 different species of Sting Ray.

Guests will be able to hand feed a variety of Ray species while they learn about them.

Sea World's director of marine sciences, Trevor Long, said: "Ray Reef will allow Sea World visitors to learn all about the Ray's place in the ocean eco system during one of the many live educational presentations.

"Sting Rays are majestic creatures and Ray Reef will showcase their graceful ability to manoeuvre underwater as well as allowing visitors to touch and observe these wonderful animals in a truly interactive exhibit."

The theme park has also unveiled the new Jet Rescue coaster which sends guests on a mission to save marine life as part of the Sea World Rescue team.

"Climb aboard your Jetski and zoom around the amazing track, flying and twisting past pristine rock pools at an exhilarating 70km/hr," said a spokesperson for the park.

"Then enter the dark and dangerous blowhole cave where a sea lion waits desperately for your help. Blast through the cave and release the pressure, allowing the majestic sea lion to escape to safety. Then return to Sea World as marine rescue heroes."
