Seaworld
Sea World is like no other theme park in Orlando. You'll find one-of-a-kind rides, shows, and its the only place where you'll find Shamu, the Killer Whale. Thrilling rides, world class shows, and a collection of marine-life like no other encompass the 199 acres of land that make up Sea World. Sea World is a must see.
As the world's premier marine adventure park, SeaWorld Orlando features acres of world-class shows, thrilling rides and unforgettable animal encounters.
SeaWorld guests can get splashed by Shamu, dine eye-to-eye with sharks, sleep next to manatees, or be suspended mid-air on a state-of-the-art roller coaster – all in one adventure-packed day.
Of course, no visit to SeaWorld creates more memories than its array of spectacular shows. At the world-famous Shamu Adventure, visitors witness the awesome power of Shamu the killer whale and the amazing feats performed by trainers and these amazing animals. Opt to sit in the stadium's "Soak Zone," and get drenched by Shamu enthusiastically sending heaps of water toward the audience using his massive tail and fins.
"Manta, Ride the Flying Ray", this new attraction which opened in the Summer of 2009 and is SeaWorld's second real roller coaster to complement Kraken and the part coaster/part water ride Journey to Atlantis. The Manta Ray ride is a face-down coaster, the first to be built in Florida and will gives the riders the sensation of swooping and gliding like a ray. Riders lie horizontally four abreast underneath a manta ray inspired car with a 12 foot wingspan. The 3,359 feet of track includes four inversions, a 113 foot drop, speeds of up to nearly 60 mph and takes the riders only inches above the surface of a lagoon as it skims across the water.
