Killer whales may return to Ocean Park as part of the tourist attraction's redevelopment plans, according to chairman Allan Zeman.

Speaking at a tourism symposium at the convention centre, Mr Zeman also said that there were plans to construct a tunnel through the park's headland, with a small train linking both sides of the attraction.

Mr Zeman was detailing plans for an ambitious redevelopment - to be undertaken between 2006 and 2009 - which were initially unveiled last month. The plans also include building two hotels and upgrading shops and restaurants.

He said that adding killer whale and penguin shows were also on the cards.
