Xiaomeisha Sea World

The Xiaomeisha Ocean World covers an area of approximately 60,200 square meters, with a total building area of about 132,500 square meters. This includes an above-ground building area of around 94,000 square meters and two basement levels totaling about 50,000 square meters. The complex consists of five buildings: an aquarium, a whale and dolphin pavilion, a fun theater, a mixed sea lion exhibit, a visitor service center, and a display service center. Xiaomeisha Ocean World houses over 200 rare and precious terrestrial animals, pinnipeds, cetaceans, and fish species. It focuses on themes of marine animal exhibitions, technological performances, and multimedia interactive science education, aiming to create a joyful atmosphere that brings people closer to nature and enhances family happiness. The new facility holds approximately 40,000 tons of water, with 74 display tanks containing 20,000 tons of water, several tanks exceeding 1,000 tons, and the largest tank, the Ocean Pool, holding 4,700 tons. Upon completion, the new facility will rank among the top ten marine animal exhibition venues in China in terms of total water volume. The venue employs advanced multimedia technology both inside and out, integrating ocean culture and technology concepts to provide an immersive park experience. The diverse technological displays of sound, light, and electricity enhance themed entertainment, improve visitor experience through information technology, meet the needs of niche market customers, and create diverse entertainment scenarios, establishing a new model for ocean-themed park entertainment.

Xiaomeisha Ocean World has introduced the South China Mecha (Bionic) Whale Shark, allowing visitors to experience the charm of ocean giants up close while exploring the integration of bionic technology and artificial intelligence. This mecha (bionic) whale shark incorporates 27 patents, including 3D printing, integrated underwater motors, and bionic jaw mechanisms, showcasing innovation and technological prowess. It not only inspires students' interest in technology and the ocean but also reduces interference with wildlife by replacing live whale sharks. Additionally, its low-energy design consumes only 3 kilowatt-hours of electricity per day, with annual electricity costs of around 1,000 yuan, significantly lower than the cost of maintaining live whale sharks, reflecting an eco-friendly approach. Furthermore, the mecha (bionic) whale shark can collect key ocean data, aiding scientists in researching and protecting marine ecosystems.
