Ocean magic meets coaster madness

SeaWorld Orlando isn’t your typical theme park; it’s a splashy mix of sea life and world-record coasters. One minute you’re face-to-face with dolphins, the next you’re flying 200 feet high on Mako, Orlando’s fastest coaster. It’s the perfect blend of awe and adrenaline.

Memorable animal encounters

Walk through icy tunnels surrounded by penguins, watch orcas leap sky-high, or feed playful sea lions by hand. From gentle manatees to curious rays, SeaWorld brings you closer to the ocean’s most fascinating creatures, without having to dive into the ocean.

Family fun for all

With Sesame Street Land, splash zones, and family coasters like Penguin Trek, little adventurers can laugh, learn, and play side by side with the grown-ups. It’s a rare park where grandparents, parents, and toddlers can all have a “best day ever” at the same time.

Pride of Orlando

SeaWorld’s coaster lineup is legendary. Manta lets you soar like a stingray, Pipeline makes you surf standing up, Kraken twists through the sky, and Ice Breaker takes you on Florida’s steepest vertical drop. Is it any wonder why Orlando is called the Coaster Capital?

Park with a purpose

SeaWorld Orlando’s mission goes beyond entertainment—it’s rooted in conservation. The park’s rescue teams have saved and rehabilitated more than 42,000 sick, injured, and orphaned marine animals—from stranded manatees to rescued sea turtles. Every ticket sold helps support these ongoing efforts, ensuring that your day of fun also fuels a legacy of ocean care and wildlife protection.

What’s inside SeaWorld Orlando

The Coaster Capital of Orlando

Hold on tight—this park is home to eight world-class roller coasters, each inspired by the sea. Fly like a stingray on Manta, dive deep on Mako, surf standing up on Pipeline, or brave Kraken’s legendary loops. For families, Penguin Trek brings a gentler thrill that concludes inside a real penguin habitat.

Up-close animal encounters

From the sleek dolphins of Dolphin Cove to the rescued turtles at TurtleTrek, every encounter here inspires awe. Wander through icy tunnels in Antarctica to meet waddling penguins, or feed curious sea lions at Pacific Point Preserve. These moments are beyond cute; they’re unforgettable glimpses into marine life.

Spectacular shows and presentations

Settle in for the magic of Orca Encounter, where power meets grace, or laugh along at Sea Lion High. Each show blends storytelling, emotion, and education in a way only SeaWorld Orlando can. Don’t miss the synchronized beauty of Dolphin Adventures; it’s pure joy, bottled in splash form.

Sesame Street Land

A world of color, laughter, and nostalgia awaits. Kids can ride Abby’s Flower Tower, count along with Count’s Castle, and dance in the Sesame Street Party Parade. With cheerful music, interactive play areas, and friendly faces at every turn, it’s a mini-park made for smiles.

Dining, shopping & seasonal magic

Refuel at Sharks Underwater Grill, where you dine with a panoramic view of a shark tank, or grab theme-inspired treats at Waterway Grill. Between rides, browse The Waterfront for marine-inspired souvenirs. Visiting during a festival? Expect live music, glowing lagoons, and flavors from around the world—no two visits ever feel the same.
