My family and I had a fun filled day at Sea World. We went on a holiday weekend and the lines were very mild with ample seating for all the shows. The dolphin show was the family favorite and had my 3 and 5 year old boys standing in delight. A must do while you are there is the HUGE playground full of rides, carnival games and a small splash park. Make sure to catch the new shows like Freelusion which is a dance show as seen on America's Got Talent. Later this month the Gazillion Bubble Show will start so make sure to schedule accordingly to catch this mind blowing magic show. As always, the summer months have special evening shows topped off with fantastic fireworks - check for select dates. Shamu Stadium is the best place to experience all the sights and sounds.

SUMMER FUN AT SEAWORLD
SeaWorld's got a summer full of good times and good vibrations happening as the park transforms after dark. Select dates through Sept. 5, SeaWorld is open late with spectacular fireworks and nighttime animal shows. Cirque de la Mer, one of SeaWorld’s most popular daytime shows, is back this summer with amazing acrobatic, aerial and trapeze artists’ performances on and over Mission Bay. New this year is pro hydro flight athlete Jake Orel. He keeps guests on the edge of their seats at Cirque Stadium as he defies gravity. Propelled by a powerful stream of water, Orel is lifted out of the water as high as 30 feet to dive, flip and spin in a mind-bending aerial freestyle demonstration. The party is in high gear with SeaWorld’s Summer Vibes presented by Coca-Cola reverberating with exciting live entertainment in the park’s Mission Bay Theater. Three international variety acts will bring their amazing talents to SeaWorld on select dates through Aug. 14. In the plaza just outside the theater, guests can be part of the good vibrations during a nighttime party atmosphere pumping with dancing, fun lights and a DJ spinning Top 40 hits.
