Visit SeaWorld San Diego

Located in Mission Bay Park along the shore of the Mission Bay, San Diego, SeaWorld San Diego has been a favorite family destination for decades. This theme park first opened on March 21, 1964, displaying various shows exhibiting sea lions and dolphins. The park may have had humble beginnings, but it quickly became popular in California and grew exponentially in the next few years.

Today there are three different locations to choose from – one is located in Texas, another one in Orlando, and the original San Diego aquarium. SeaWorld welcomes around 1 million visitors annually.

The park started off simple, offering many fascinating marine life shows, but over time has grown into a world of amusement with the addition of rollercoasters, restaurants, and different attractions. SeaWorld San Diego has 16 different rollercoasters for guests to enjoy, ranging from fast-paced thrillers to charming children's rides. Going along with the theme of the park, most rides are inspired by the Ocean’s wonderful marine life – some of which you can actually get to meet in the theme park.

History of SeaWorld San Diego

The theme park was first introduced to the public on March 21, 1964. Founded by George Millay, Milt Shedd, Ken Norris, and David Demott, the park was first thought out to be an underwater restaurant. When the four men realized that creating an underwater restaurant with live marine shows was impossible, they moved their focus to an ocean-themed amusement park – one of the first of its kind.

They chose the newly developed Mission Bay Park as their setting and got to work creating what is now one of America's favorite theme parks. When the park first opened, there were only a few exhibits centering around dolphins and sea lions rather than the iconic Killer Whale, which the park would eventually become known for.

During the same time the park opened, a new television program would air that centered around dolphins becoming a smash hit. It was connected to the theme park, which quickly became a brilliant success. In its first year, the theme park welcomed a remarkable 400,000 guests, a number that would grow exponentially as the years went on.

The original park housed several sea lions, dolphins, and seawater aquariums which held hundreds of fascinating fish species. Although humble in its beginnings, these attractions were enough for the park to garner enough attention and began to grow exponentially in 1968 after going public. SeaWorld then began to open up new parks in different locations across the U.S.

The second location for SeaWorld to open its zoological park was in Aurora, Ohio, in 1970, followed by a third park in Orlando, Florida, in 1973, and finally, its fourth and largest park in San Antonio, Texas, in 1988. SeaWorld became a smash hit once it expanded, and was able to include a variety of aquatic shows and hands-on sea life exhibits.

One of the brightest moments of the park was the introduction of Shamu, the Killer Whale, in 1965. Shamu entered the theme park in December of 1965 from Seattle’s public aquarium after being captured in Puget Sound, Washington. Shamu was taught tricks and soon began doing performances which became an instant success – thus starting the iconic and widely controversial Orca shows.

Although Shamu would later die in 1971, this killer whale had left her mark. The park continued her legacy with more orcas performing the Shamu Show, which would later be renamed the “Orca Encounter.” This live performance showcases Orcas while educating the audience on the Orca’s habits, hunting behaviors, and exciting facts about these fascinating creatures. The Orca Encounter show is one of the park’s most popular attractions and is world-renowned.

Since then, multiple ‘encounter’ shows have opened, from dolphins to penguins to even sharks! Then in 1997, the park began to combine beloved marine animals with the fun amusement rides families have come to adore. The creation and installation of Journey to Atlantis added a whole new side to the theme park, and after its success, the theme park was quick to bring in more and more rides over the years.

Today, they have their own company that not only operates the three different parks in San Diego, Orlando, and San Antonio but they have also expanded to include different theme parks such as Sesame Place. SeaWorld San Diego, the original park, is a beloved staple to any California visit. Its world-renowned aquatic shows, rollercoasters, and restaurants guarantee taking a trip to SeaWorld is sure to create new, happy memories for both kids and adults.
