SHORE EXCURSIONS

OVERVIEW

Watch sea lions perform at a wildlife park and then ease into the water and interact with these gregarious marine mammals. The venue for this adventure will be the Rancho Texas Lanzarote Park, an American Western-themed ranch setting with an array of animals. As an introduction to the wildlife, you will watch birds of prey perform spectacular aerial maneuvers, sometimes flying right over your head. A sea lion performance follows, during which their intelligence, playfulness and agility in the water will be apparent. Sea lions can also walk on all fours, the characteristic that most distinguishes them from seals. To help maximize your experience with the sea lions, an instructor will be in the water with you. Being social animals, the sea lions are sure to approach and encourage you to interact with them. Afterwards, feel free to meander through the park and observe the other animals, which include bison, Komodo dragons and white tigers.
