SeaWorld San Diego in San Diego, California, is the original SeaWorld park and has been part of Mission Bay since 1964. What started as a marine park built around aquariums, animals and live shows has changed significantly over the years. Roller coasters and thrill rides have become a major part of the park, while its connection to the ocean remains visible throughout.

Emperor, Electric Eel, Manta and Arctic Rescue make up a varied coaster lineup, joined by the longtime favorite Journey to Atlantis. SeaWorld’s original focus is still very much present as well, with large aquariums and habitats featuring sharks, penguins, dolphins, sea lions and many other species. The park’s location along Mission Bay provides a fitting backdrop, with water and coastal views never far away.

SeaWorld San Diego has come a long way since 1964. What was once primarily a marine park is now a place where you can spend the morning watching dolphins and penguins and the afternoon riding some of San Diego’s largest roller coasters.
