Jungle Island is about to receive an extreme makeover.
The 18-acre attraction on Watson Island in Miami has been acquired in a $60 million sale, new owners ESJ Capital Partners announced on Wednesday.
The company also announced plans to transform the landmark attraction into an eco-adventure destination complete with its own private beach club.
"This acquisition is the beginning of a new chapter for the park, and will redefine Jungle Island as South Florida’s preeminent eco-adventure destination," said Jungle Island’s President John Dunlap.
The multi-million dollar renovation and expansion is set to roll out in three-part phases.
The first phase, which is set to debut this summer, will feature zip lines that will give riders a panoramic view of the Miami skyline, adventures for children, water slides, and a crystal lagoon.
The major renovations are expected to take two years to complete.
