One lovely show girl is a South American sea lion that enjoys hamming for the camera and performing for big crowds!<br \/>\nPet a real live Atlantic ray, and talk a little bit with their handler, Joe, about the care and keeping of these wonderful creatures. \u00a0For the last few years, Joe and his family have brought fair guests the wonders of these little critters, which you can touch and view up close. \u00a0This show is a rescue, too. \u00a0Joe rescues the rays from shrimping boats in the Gulf of Mexico, tours them for eight to nine months, and then releases them back into the wild!<br \/>\nGaze in awe at the sharks, swimming in their tanks, and take a picture or two with the resident mermaid! \u00a0She&#8217;s available for pictures after her educational show in a wonderfully cool misty grotto.<br \/>\nNow, for a fun Blog Giveaway!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Beneath the Sea Giveaway<\/strong><br \/>\nFour any-day admission tickets<br \/>\nTwo RCS ride wristbands<br \/>\n1 Parking Pass<\/p>\n<p>To enter our contest, t<span style=\"color: #333333; font-style: normal; line-height: 24.375px;\">ell me at least ONE of the sea lions&#8217; names from the show.\u00a0<\/span><strong>Win<\/strong><strong>ner will be announced Monday on this blog at 5 p.m. Best of Luck!<\/strong><br \/>\nWhat are you waiting for? \u00a0Swim, don&#8217;t walk, on down and join us Beneath the Sea.<br \/>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We have a winner!
