Description

from SeaWorld San Diego

SeaWorld San Diego is home to world-class animal presentations, rides, shows, and exhibits, spread out on beautiful Mission Bay Park. You'll always find something fun going on at SeaWorld. From flavorful food festivals to dazzling Christmas lights, there are exciting events for every season.

Opening June 2, 2023: Arctic Rescue is the newest addition to the park’s rides and launching this Spring! Join the team and feel and the rush of the fastest and longest straddle coaster on the West Coast! Guests are invited to hop on a snowmobile and launch at up to 40 mph on a chilly adventure as they race through the unpredictable arctic climate to help animals in danger. The snowmobile-style seats create a uniquely immersive coaster experience as riders lean into turns and glide up heights as tall as 30 feet. Following a fun experience on the ride, guests can walk through the Wild Arctic exhibit and witness the wonders of the park’s resident beluga whales, walruses, and ringed seals whose wild populations are being threatened by a loss of Arctic sea ice. According to USA Today’s 10 Best list, Arctic Rescue is one of the most anticipated rides of the year.
