There is a special nostalgia to SeaWorld. For many of us who grew up in Florida, it was the site of our first field trips and family vacations. Returning as an adult, or bringing your own children for a birthday, reveals a park that has evolved beautifully.
The Coaster Capital
While the animals are still the heart of the park, SeaWorld has transformed into Orlando's thrill leader. Mako, Kraken, and Pipeline offer world-class thrills that rival anything at Universal.
Birthday Perks
- Shark’s Underwater Grill: The ultimate birthday dinner spot. You dine surrounded by massive tanks of sharks.
- Reserved Seating: On busy days, upgrading to reserved theater seating ensures you don't have to line up 45 minutes early for the Orca or Dolphin shows.
- Animal Encounters: For a truly unforgettable gift, book a penguin or dolphin encounter.
