Intersection of Ellison Drive and Westover Hills Boulevard off TX 151 between Loop 410 and Loop 1604, San Antonio (800) 700-7786 www.seaworld.com Located 16 miles northwest
of downtown, this 250-acre park is the largest marine-life adventure
park in the world. Displays and shows featuring orcas, dolphins,
seals, and otters partner with an enjoyable water park. The star
of Sea World is Shamu, the 2-1/2-ton orca who engages in graceful
swimming exercises with his human partners. There's room for 4,500
onlookers in this stadium, and most of the seats are safe from
the huge splashes that Shamu produces as he leaps and dives in
his seven-million-gallon tank. Nearby an impressive 300,000-gallon
coral reef display contains the world's largest collection of
Indo-Pacific coral reef fishes in a simulated coral reef environment.
Sea World is also home to numerous theme park rides including two roller coasters as well as cool water rides. Dozens of shows and rides keep travelers happy and are the perfect place for the two of you to feel like kids again. Lost Lagoon water park is one of the park's most popular spots on hot summer days. continued from San Antonio Mini-Site
