A stranded Indo-Pacific bottlenose dolphin that was rescued on Hainan Island last year has been rehabilitating at Fairyland Ocean Park. In these newly released photos we see for the first time the back pools of the park's Dolphin Theatre:











Also, I think this Koi fish exhibit is new:

Another look at the new Deep Ocean Bay exhibit:






Also I think guests have been able to sometimes enter Dolphin Theatre to see the dolphins but still no shows yet:

Deep Ocean Bay has opened recently at the park. The original plan was for this to be a dolphin exhibit but at least for right now it has schools of fish, sharks, and stingrays:






The exhibit can be seen in this video starting at 5:31



Also the dolphins look to still be acclimating to Dolphin Theatre and have not started shows yet:

On December 28 four bottlenose dolphins were transferred from the temporary holding facility to the park's Dolphin Theatre, which will be opening soon.
