This 200-acre marine park (one of three SeaWorlds nationwide) mixes entertainment and education in its many animal shows, rides, touch pools and aquariums. The park's outstanding marine mammal shows feature dolphins, sea lions, otters and Shamu, the park's star killer whale, all in giant stadiums. Plan your day around showtimes, but don't miss the thrill rides like Journey to Atlantis and the new Flying Manta. You can also meet animals up close at Penguin Encounter, the Dolphin Nursery, Wild Arctic an and other exhibits.
