SeaWorld OrlandoPart of any magical Orlando vacation includes a visit to SeaWorld Orlando. Whether vacationing with family or friends, there is no shortage of enlightening, entertaining and exhilarating attractions to enjoy inside the park.

SeaWorld Orlando Rides.Not just for visiting fish anymore, SeaWorld Orlando offers exhilarating rides combining the best qualities of roller coasters, water rides and special effects that will transport you just a few steps away from reality.

Spinning, dangling and plummeting from your seat on a floorless beast, this is not for the faint of heart! Coming in Summer 2009, the Manta literally flips the whole roller coaster notion on its face. Riders are suspended face down, gliding, flying and diving at nearly 60 mph, emulating the graceful travels of the Manta. Come face to face with the creatures of the frozen tundra on the Wild Arctic Ride. You’ll be transported from your seat directly in to the midst of a turbulent Arctic storm, while encountering whales, walruses and polar bears.

With a collection of rides like Swishy Fishies and the Shamu Express, families can explore the wonder of marine life through a child’s eyes!
