The experience is enhanced by the “Raptor Encounter,” where Blue, the beloved Velociraptor from the movies, engages guests along with two new realistic dinosaurs – Baby Raptor with her handler and a life-size, life-like Triceratops. An interactive “Dino Play” area invites children to explore and excavate dinosaur fossils.

Costa Rican-inspired cuisine and Tiki cocktails are served at Jurassic Café and the new Isla Nu-bar adding to the guest experience while a variety of souvenir collectible, limited edition and one-of-a-kind dinosaur sculptures from the Jurassic Outfitters store invite guests to take home a piece of the exciting new thrill ride.
