Whether you were here with us recently or it’s been a while since your last adventure, the following hints can help you make the most of your upcoming visit. Looking for ways to upgrade your day at the park? We’ll share some of our favorite options so you can make those unforgettable moments even more special. Trust us—it’ll be worth it!

Without further ado, here are our top tips for a great day at SeaWorld Orlando.

Grab an All-Day Dining Deal
Eat and drink all day as often as once every hour for one low price. That’s it! When you spend a whole day at the park, there are so many great places to eat and drink, now your decisions about where to visit just became a whole lot easier! Check out the participating locations and details below.

Get a Quick Pic at Our Entrance Sign

Gather everyone together, wait for Manta to come into view, and snap one of the best selfies in the park. What a way to start the day!

Fly Like a Manta Ray

Speaking of Manta, be sure to give it a try if you haven’t yet! Find out what it’s like to spin, glide, skim, and fly like a giant ray when you experience the only flying roller coaster of its kind in Florida.

Use Our Child Swap Service

If not everyone in your family is ready for coaster thrills, you’ll appreciate our rider switch service. Ask the first Attractions Ambassador you encounter at the ride, and they’ll explain how you can take turns so no one misses out on the fun.

Feel the Wonder of Stingray Lagoon

There’s space for everyone in your group to step up and feel a stingray glide past as they lap the lagoon. Our Animal Ambassadors are close by to encourage you to extend your hand, and to share facts about these fascinating creatures that are just as curious about you.

Enjoy Live Family-Friendly Presentations

Check out Dolphin Adventures, an all-new presentation where you’ll explore the exciting world of bottlenose dolphins in a way you’ve never experienced before. Then make your way to the all-new Sea Lion & Otter Spotlight for an educational and funny presentation featuring California sea lions and Asian small-clawed otters.

Brave Mako, Our Can’t-Miss Coaster

If you’re a fan of coasters (and we suspect you are!), you need to dive deep into Mako. Begin your excursion in a shipwreck near Shark Wreck Reef. Learn how sharks are uniquely positioned to locate their prey. Then get ready to drop, dive, and glide just like sharks on the hunt.

Discover Sharks Underwater Grill

Did someone say sharks? One of the best-kept secrets in the park is Sharks Underwater Grill. This table-service restaurant features land and sea favorites, but the food won’t be the only thing capturing your attention. Check out the shark aquarium running the entire length of the restaurant, where you might see an animal who’s just as hungry as you are! Reservations are not required (but it helps). And if you’re short on time, you can still stop by the walk-up bar for a beer or cocktail.

Dine with Orcas

We don’t know about you, but we love hearty meals! And SeaWorld happens to have one of the most unique all-you-can-eat experiences you’ll find. At Dine with Orcas, you’ll enjoy an endless assortment of appetizers, salads, entrées, and desserts. But the main event is when our trainers bring our orcas over to your behind-the-scenes spot at Bayside Stadium!

Laugh and Learn at Sesame Street Land™

It’s not just for kids. Whatever your age, you’ll have an unforgettable time interacting with the characters you grew up with at Sesame Street Land. Be sure to grab an awesome shirt to let the world know Cookie Monster is your favorite!

Book an Up-Close Tour Starting at Just $19.99

If you’re as passionate about animals as we are, we’d love to show you more! Join us for an up-close tour and learn about the daily lives of the animals under our care. Share training behaviors with a dolphin, waddle in close for a pic with a penguin, or even help feed our sharks. Check out these fascinating experiences and reserve yours now!

Sample Florida Flavors

Celebrate the Sunshine State with a beer or cocktail! Flamecraft Bar at Seafire Grill has many craft brews unique to Florida, with 16 selections on tap that rotate throughout the year. Can’t decide? With a Taste of Brews beer flight, you can pick your top three and leave one spot open for your bartender to make a recommendation.

Experience Orca Encounter

We are committed to the killer whales in our care. Connect with them in a whole new way at this outdoor presentation that reveals their powerful and thrilling natural behaviors. You’ll gain a deeper understanding of SeaWorld’s commitment and be inspired to help protect these majestic animals.

Come Back for Festival Fun

Every season brings something fun and exciting to the park. Be sure to check out our calendar of events to see what’s happening during your visit, and what other celebrations you might want to experience!

We hope you found these tips helpful, and we can’t wait to see you at the park!
