Great new aerial photos!
Though the parks will not be opening till later this year, a recent article about Hainan Island's ocean park industry already mentions Hainan Ocean Paradise's plans for an area themed to the future of ocean conservation which will be eventually opening as part of the project's second phase: http://www.bbtnews.com.cn/2019/0103/280970.shtml

The monorail is going up very quickly - the track will go through both the park and waterpark and stations will be located inside the theme park, at the entrance, and at the hotels.
