Weihai Ocean Park is situated within the coastal scenic area built along the sea, a modern themed attraction that integrates marine ecological exhibitions, science education, and interactive entertainment. Centered on the core concept of "harmonious coexistence between humans and the ocean," the park uses immersive experiences and advanced technology to guide visitors through the mysterious underwater world.
The Whale Shark Pavilion is home to the whale shark—the world's largest fish—whose silvery-white body glows like moonlight, and whose graceful movements resemble flowing stars, leaving countless visitors breathless in awe. The Polar Pavilion recreates glacial and polar ecosystems: a family of walruses charms with their endearing clumsiness, while penguins glide across simulated ice fields, transporting visitors straight to the Antarctic continent.
The Dolphin Theater hosts daily performances showcasing the intelligence and agility of dolphins; each time they leap out of the water, waves of cheers erupt from the audience. In the interactive experience zone, visitors can rent diving gear or try virtual reality ocean exploration, transforming themselves into marine adventurers.
Since ancient times, Weihai has been a vital fishing port. Qi Jiguang, the renowned Ming Dynasty general who defended against Japanese pirates, once stationed here, leaving behind the historic name "Weihaiwei." Through modern technology, the Ocean Park revives the wisdom of ancient fishermen. The "Fisherman’s Ballad" cultural corridor inside the park displays Weihai’s traditional fishing customs and maritime beliefs, conveying the timeless philosophy of harmony between humanity and nature. This place is not only a marine classroom for children but also a magical realm where every visitor can witness the wonders of life.
