Alligator Show

NEW this year!

 

Kachunga & The Alligator Show

 

Never straying from its original concept of education, this twenty-five minute performance involves two showmen and and eight-foot alligator.  During the show the emcee dismisses many myths surrounding the alligator  and replaces them with fact. Once Kachunga successfully captures the alligator using only his bare hands, he gently lifts the two hundred and fifty pound reptile up and out of its watery domain and gently places him onto the deck area for an up-close and personal lesson in alligator anatomy. Some unsuspecting child chosen from the audience will get a chance of a lifetime as he interacts with Kachunga and the alligator.

High Dive Show

 

 

 

Sinbad, "In Search of the Golden Pineapple".  Sinbad goes to save a crew member who falls into the water as the rest of the crew follows with the most amazing dives off 3 meter boards and the 5 and 10 meter platform.  After searching everywhere no body has the treasure and the audience points to the highest (80 foot) platform. After climbing to the top the Golden Pineapple is spotted in the bottom of the Ocean below.  A spectacular high dive is performed and the treasure is recovered to the amazement of the crowd. The last show each day will include a fire dive in order to see into the depths and recover the treasure.
