California - San Diego & Vicinity

Sea World

A Karen Brown Recommendation

Sea World: San Diego’s marine display is in Mission Bay Park. Set in a 150-acre park which includes a 1-acre children’s playland, Sea World features one of California’s famous personalities, Shamu, the performing killer whale who delights everyone with her wit and aquatic abilities. Penguin Encounter is a particularly fun exhibit where you watch comical penguins waddling about in their polar environment, while Shark Encounter presents one of the largest displays of sharks in the world and provides the terrifying thrill of being surrounded by these efficient killing machines as you walk through an acrylic tube.
