The Hong Kong Ocean Park is the largest oceanarium and theme park in Southeast Asia. Ocean Park combines the excitement of a theme park, with the fun of a comprehensive oceanarium. Originally opening in 1977, Ocean Park quickly became one of the most popular sites in Hong Kong and because of excellent park management, it has remained so to the present.
