What’s Included With Your Single-Day SeaWorld Tickets

One Orlando theme park ticket at SeaWorld covers eight roller coasters, two water rides, live shows, and hundreds of animal species inside a single park. Here’s what you’ll find on the day.

SeaWorld Orlando Rides and Roller Coasters

SeaWorld calls itself the Coaster Capital of Orlando, and the lineup backs it up. Mako drops 200 feet at 73 mph. Pipeline: The Surf Coaster has you riding standing up. Kraken is floorless, Manta flies you face down, and Ice Breaker launches you forwards and backward.

Penguin Trek is the family launch coaster through Antarctica, and Super Grover’s Box Car Derby is the starter coaster for younger kids. Journey to Atlantis and Infinity Falls are the two water rides. Save them for the afternoon, when a soaking is welcome.

Mako, Pipeline, and Penguin Trek build the longest lines. Ride those first and then work through the rest.

New Rides in 2026

SEAQuest: Legends of the Deep is the park’s first suspended dark ride. You board a submersible-style vehicle and glide through bioluminescent caverns, shipwrecks, and deep-sea encounters. Expedition Odyssey: Fire & Ice, the flying theater attraction, reopened in a new form in May 2026.

Both are included with general admission. For a fuller rundown, see what’s new at SeaWorld Orlando in 2026.

Animal Habitats and Encounters

SeaWorld is home to more than 200 species. Watch dolphins at Dolphin Cove, walk beneath rays and sharks at the Manta Aquarium and Shark Encounter, and meet the colony at Antarctica: Empire of the Penguin.

The rescue and rehabilitation habitats for manatees and sea turtles are the quiet highlight of the park, and easy to miss if you only chase coasters.

Shows and Entertainment

Our Orlando SeaWorld tickets also include the regular show schedule: Orca Encounter, Dolphin Adventures, and the seasonal stage productions. Show times change daily, so check the app when you arrive and build your day around them. Reserved seating and select premium experiences cost extra.

Sesame Street Land

Visiting with under-7s? This is where a good part of the day will go. Six rides scaled for small children, a daily parade, character meet-and-greets, and a wet play area. It’s the reason a lot of families pick SeaWorld over the bigger parks for a first Orlando trip.

Seasonal Events at SeaWorld Orlando

Your visit date decides which festival you get. Seven Seas Food Festival runs in spring. Electric Ocean brings nighttime shows, drones, and fireworks through summer. The Christmas Celebration takes over in December. All three are included with admission.

Howl-O-Scream, the after-hours Halloween event, is ticketed separately.

Should You Add the All Day Dining Deal to Your SeaWorld Day Pass?

SeaWorld ticket prices cover admission only, and an in-park meal costs $15 to $20. The All Day Dining Deal lets you get an entree, a side or dessert, and a regular non-alcoholic drink once every 90 minutes, up until 30 minutes before restaurants close.

The math is simple. Eating twice with a drink or snack in between covers the cost. Visiting for half a day or eating off-site? Skip it. If you’re going to be there for the whole day, add it as a ticket type above.

A few conditions apply. Photo identification is required alongside your ticket each time you’re redeeming All Day Dining. Sharing and take-out aren’t allowed, and some food and beverage exclusions apply, including alcohol, water bottles, and no specialty dining at Sharks Underwater Grill, Dine with Shamu, Flamecraft Bar, or Serengeti Overlook Restaurant.

Participating restaurants are noted in the park, and the deal runs until 30 minutes before restaurant closing time. Children can redeem kids meals at participating locations under the same terms.
