SeaWorld San Diego is one of the top attractions in San Diego and during our recent visit, we finally had the opportunity to see what the hype was all about. As a result, we did have a “killer whale” of a time!

2. One Ocean (Shamu Stadium)
3. Sea Lions LIVE (Sea Lion & Otter Stadium)
4. Dolphin Days (Dolphin Point)

For the months of April and May 2016, there are featured magicians who will perform each weekend. These shows are of relatively high quality with the likes of Steve Wyrick & Michael Grasso.

Due to the timings of the shows, we focused our visit in completing all the shows and only managed to take the sky tower ride. Nonetheless, it was a pretty enjoyable ride. Here’s a tip, the sky tower opens at 9am, before the rest of the park opens. Hence, you can head over earlier and enjoy a couple of rounds on the sky tower before heading over for the first show that usually starts at 10:30am.

All in all, it was a beautiful day out at SeaWorld San Diego. We particularly enjoyed the Killer Whale shows where we still wonder how in the world did they get those killer whales to flip in the air?! By the way, some people were saying that you should catch the killer whales before they die (or phase out). In fact, the youngest killer whale is now 2 years old while the oldest killer whale is 50 years old, it will be probably more than 20 years before the killer whale shows end. Oh, and we got to take pictures with both Bert and Ernie! 🙂
