Caribbean Coast will feature a walk-through aviary with flamingos, Jamaican iguanas and macaws, as well as an exhibit for bush dogs. There will be interactive, hands-on opportunities, such as feeding flamingos and creating your own rhythms on native percussion instruments. Most importantly, guests will meet animals both majestic and rare, and learn about their role in their ecosystem.
