Aquatica

Introducing Aquatica™ - a whimsical, one-of-a-kind waterpark that’s only in Orlando and could only come from SeaWorld, where one river floats you through an undersea world of colourful fish and another races you into rolling rapids. Slides that spin and soak you, and the incredible signature ride – Dolphin Plunge, with two awesome, enclosed tube slides that send you speeding through a lively lagoon filled with playful, black and white Commerson’s dolphins. Especially for the little ones, there’s the huge water play area, Kata’s Kookaburra Cove! Play, in on or over the serene-to-extreme waters in the gigantic double wave pools, then soak in the sun (or the cooling shade) on the white sand beach.

Aquatica is where the fun is as endless as the sea itself.
Discovery Cove

Discovery Cove is like an inland Caribbean island, a haven of peace and luxury only 15 minutes’ drive from Disneyworld. Here you can relax by the lagoons on beautiful landscaped beaches, swim with dolphins, rays, snorkel around the coral reef, or take a leisurely swim in the warm tropical river through to the aviary where the exotic birds are so tame they will sit on your shoulder. The full day package includes a continental breakfast and a delicious buffet lunch to cater for all tastes. Everything you need is included; wetsuit, snorkeling gear and unlimited supply of towels. A fantastic family day out you will all remember forever.
