Caribbean Reef Orb: The Design

The Caribbean Sea Reef orb is an exact replica of the Great Barrier Reef Orb.



It's main feature is also a covered passthrough allowing the visitor to walk the diameter of the eco-system.


Technically, like the GBR Orb it measures 138 meters wide by 48 meter tall.


For this ecosystem, there are ample amazing coral structures. And there is also a wide "meadow" of seagrass.


The Orb is located on the western side of the zoo just west of the East African Savannah Orb and between the Scandinavian and Indonesian islands Orbs.
