If anyone is thinking of visiting this park, i urge you to watch the documentary Blackfish. Please do not support these disgusting people or their terrible abuse of these poor animals.

Haven't been to SeaWorld for some time and was really looking forward to it. Thing is was really really disappointed right from the over priced parking through the majority of rides being closed or broken. Those rides working were rammed with people because of closures to other rides. The same was true with eating places half closed and long queues at others. The whole day seemed to be geared to enticing people to animal attractions at considerable extra cost. Won't be rushing back and strongly suggest if your holidaying skip this park there are plenty of others offering a better experience

Tolles Programm Ich fand es wunderschön dort, auch wenn es immer wieder Diskussionen um die Behandlung der Tiere geht ich kann hier nur mein Befinden dazu preisgeben. Ich fand es herrlich. Ich war schon 1996 das erste Mal da und war begeistert

This place used to be amazing, but no longer. Too many rides closed for maintenance. All day dining deal is no longer worth it. Inaccurate misleading info on website about dining options which wastes your precious in-park time. Perhaps most notably, employees are ruder than before and no longer prioritize a good experience, even at the start of the day when you shouldn't be grumpy; not isolated to a few employees either, they're all relatively unhappy. All these signs point to penny-wise, pound-foolish mismanagement. Many other superior theme park options in area. Save your money and your time, go elsewhere!

I am upmost embarassed to have taken company to this Park. We purchased military Tickets and meal Passes on line, but noone was able to scan them and we constantly held up lines and had to put up with rude and incapable emplyees. DO NOT purchase meal passes, there are suppose to be 6 restaurants you can use, but the food is so bad that it's not edible and makes a hospital cafeteria a gourmet restaurant. The worst, all restaurants serve the same tasting food and desserts. Prizes are ridiculous, seaworld t-shirts are $40, a coffee or an ice cream cone is $10. I saw families with multiple children that had to share one cone. The restaurants are so dirty and run down with broken and chipped furniture, greasy walls and undefined floors that it is a health hazard to even just sit down. Now let's talk about the most bothersome, criminal thing: animal keeping at seaworld. Nothing has been renovated in over 25 years. The encounters are way to small with rusty enclosures abd dirty waters. The penguin encounter is overpopulated and these poor creatures have to live their lives in a crowded dungeon without natural light. The dolphin nursery brought my granddaughter to tears, because of a mini pool with two mothers and their calves imprisoned, having to endlessly swim in a small circle. The flamingos had such little space that was just plain ridiculous overall I saw evidence of animal cruelty. Half of the parks booths and eateries were closed and throughout we walked by endless white or brown painted 10 ft wood barricades. There were two overcrowded shows, with the orcas snd the sealions, but we boycotted these due to animal humanitarian issues. Overall, I will never ever go back to this park, it is one big rip off with nothing to do or see and imprisoned, mistreated animals.

My husband who is a tech wizard could not buy tickets on line. We live in Canada and they did not recognize our postal code. On line tickets were $650 for 5 people. Went to theme park, tickets were over $1,000. The ticket lady didn’t care and we were told that this park has nothing to do with online ticket prices. No smile, no trying to help. We paid over $1,000. First stop Sky Tower, nope…we were told we have to pay to get on this ride. We asked why as we just paid $1,000 and we were not happy. We were told by the big dude to f*** off. Ok…speakers not working in the Aquarium…walking sidewalk not working in the whale exhibit. To shows we saw were very entertaining. My granddaughter was hungry after the show. 2 hot dogs and 1 coke…over $40. I will NEVER go to this park again.

Less than 1 star service. Bought tickets from their app 4-13-2023. Unfortunately it didn’t go through so we had to buy them again that same day. It went through. But was charged twice. We called and they said our credit card company would be refunded. So We go to sea world 4-14-2023…. Only to find that out tickets on the app had disappeared!! They refused to do anything about it. Said it was our CC company’s problem and that we would have to repurchase them right there for full price!! The manager was zero help and the cashier was so rude!! I was so mad I wanted to leave but I could not disappoint 5 children. So we purchased them full price. Only to disappointed that many of the rides were not open or working. We also waited in line over an hour just for that ride to break down before we could get on. Some of the other rides were not included in the initial price. My daughter bought a refillable cup for 20$. Only to find out you could only refill it at certain places. Worst day ever!! We come home and call our CC company to be sure we weren’t charged for the 2 initial purchases of tickets that “didn’t go through”. The CC company refunded 1 as it was their mistake. Sea world refused to refund the tickets that “disappeared.” We are being charged for 7 tickets that we never used or received!! That’s over 1,000$!!!! DO NOT USE THEIR APP!! Do not go to sea world. My children were sadly disappointed! And we were robbed!! Worst place on earth!!

Went over Easter 2023 at the insistence of my partner. I wasn’t keen because of what I had heard about the dolphin and orca facilities, but I kept an open mind. The park feels generally run down. While we were there, several of the rides weren’t running and I’d say about 10% of the food outlets were open. The thing that will stay with me is how poor the conditions were for the manatees. A large number of these huge mammals in what can only be described as a glorified deep duck pond. It was filthy and these endangered animals had obviously insufficient room to manouevre around each other. The enclosure was clearly built with an emphasis on providing a novel underground experience for the viewer with no thought at all for the comfort and dignity of these animals. My partner was horrified and swears she will never go back and won’t encourage anyone else to do so (despite her happy childhood memories of the place). I’m astounded that this place hasn’t been closed down by the authorities in Florida. It speaks volumes.
