Discovery Cove® and Aquatica® water park are just a few of the educational attractions on offer at SeaWorld® Orlando. Originally opening its doors to the public in 1973, this family friendly theme park offers some spectacular rides and attractions, perfect for both the young and young at heart.
SeaWorld® Orlando strikes a perfect balance between conservation and entertainment. The Key West-inspired Marina entrance welcomes visitors into a relaxed atmosphere and mellow ambiance.
This 200 81-hectare expanse of entertainment and thrill offers visitors a host of fantastic rides and attractions. For the best view of the park, the 122-metre Sky Tower is a great vantage point.
Dolphins are definitely the main attraction of the SeaWorld experience. Visitors have the opportunity to get up close and personal with humankind’s most loyal mammals at Dolphin Nursery® and Dolphin Cove. Stroke the whiskers of a walrus or view the hundreds of rays as they twist elegantly beneath the surface at the Manta® Aquarium.
SeaWorld has an action packed programme, hosting a wide variety of seasonal and holiday shows. These interactive performances allow visitors to see fantastic marine creatures up close and witness truly spectacular shows. Don’t miss the Dolphin Spectacular, or the sea lions Clyde and Seamore strutting their stuff on Pirate Island.
The nautically themed rides range from huge roller coasters such as Kraken® to the Journey to Atlantis® ride with its colossal flume drop. All rides are family friendly and include tame roller coasters such as the Shamu Express® at Shamu’s Happy Harbour® to entertain younger children.
Taking on a Mediterranean feel, the waterfront presents visitors with a diverse choice of dining options. Sharks Underwater Grill® is definitely one to look out for as sharks swim above and below your table as you dine.
Visitors should allow one to two days to view all of the attractions on offer at the park. A series of behind-the-scenes tours are available along with a seven-hour guided tour including front row seat at shows.
