SeaWorld Orlando
Spending a day at SeaWorld learning about marine life
USA
As we made our way through Orlando we continued our theme of nature focused destinations. We made a one day visit to SeaWorld Orlando. We were excited to see the highlights of this amazing park with its incredible dolphin and killer whale shows. These performances offer a unique opportunity to witness the intelligence and grace of these magnificent marine mammals. These shows not only entertain but also educate the audience about marine conservation and the importance of protecting ocean ecosystems.
The park also has many rides with several roller coasters, however we were more interested in the variety of wildlife.
Below is a video of our experience at SeaWorld with some of the amazing shows and attractions that we got to see.
We went to the dolphin show and watched as the dolphins leaped high out of the water. Each of them were performing numerous front flips in the air and we were amazed by the dolphins' agility.
We watched the orca show early in the day and enjoyed it so much that we wrapped up our day watching it again at the late afternoon showing. For the first performance, we stayed back, unsure about getting wet. However, we soon realized that the best way to fully enjoy the experience was to get closer to the splash zone.
It was a unique opportunity to be near these giants and witness them above and below the water through the glass walls. To get even closer we took seats in the fifth row.
We were amazing by the incredible strength and size of the orcas, and indeed got splashed as they flicked their tails in our direction.
Visiting SeaWorld was truly unique. It was captivating to watch the sea turtles up close and see manatees enjoying eating lettuce.
It was amazing to watch the dolphins and orca's swimming so fast and putting on a spectacular show! Their agility and playfulness really made the experience unforgettable.
We made memories we will never forget and look forward to returning someday. Happy Exploring!
Aliya also enjoyed watching the more docile creatures and we took in the majesty of the Belugas and Manatees.
There were many underwater displays as well that Aliya enjoyed getting close to. On one of the boardwalks they also had a Mermaid performer showing off under the water as well.
Getting around the park was quite easy with lots of signage, as we had a travel stroller and the walking paths were wide a flat. There were also many built up sights with water features, and fake icebergs, to keep us entertained as we explored around the park.
