The summer sun is heating up and we’re having a blast here in San Diego! One of our favorite family fun local things to do is to visit Sea World a few times a year. This summer, they have a few new attractions to check out that your whole family will love.

Dolphin Days show at Sea World
Both bottle-nose dolphins and pilot whales take the stage at Dolphin Stadium for a fun and informative show! See how each trainer-to-dolphin relationship is important and unique, and how fun it is to watch them play, practice tricks, learn and grow right in from of our eyes! Here’s a fun video of part of the Dolphin Days show, plus our fun behind-the-scenes meet and greet with some of the dolphins after the show.
Sea World Ocean Explorer Experience
This is a fun new attraction that kids will love! Ocean Explorer is a new deep-sea adventure, complete with animal exhibits and rides that take you down to the bottom of the sea!
Learn about various deep-sea animals, such as the giant Pacific octopus, and hop on 5 fun new rides that are both fun and educational on your journey through the ocean! Of all of the new attractions at Sea World San Diego, this is one that is the most exciting because of its many things to do.
The all-new Orca Encounter show
I love watching the beautiful orcas, and this is an experience like no other. The Orca Encounter is an up-close and personal look at orcas and the way they live, move, communicate, and all of their natural behaviors.
A large screen stretches across the stage to educate guests about the different ways of orca life, while the orcas demonstrate! Come and see these grand, majestic creatures and their roles as the most powerful predators in the ocean.

In addition to the fun new shows and rides above, there’s another fun treat to look forward to: If you stay at the park when the sun goes down, you can enjoy Electric Ocean, a fun, light-the-night type of dance party that is happening throughout the park!

Sending a huge thanks to Sea World for hosting us with complimentary admission, behind-the-scenes tours, food, and other activities. Opinions are my own.
We just came home from a week in California and spent a few amazing days at SeaWorld! The Electric Ocean shows were incredible and my daughters had a blast. And for the first time my eight year old (who is the SeaWorld guest kid blogger) returned rescued animals on a boat – definitely the best day EVER.
