One of the advantages of living in San Diego is that we get to visit SeaWorld often without having to worry about travel or lodging costs. But none of our previous visits can be compared with the most recent one we had together with the amazing folks from The Moms and some of my fellow bloggers. It is the most exciting, most unforgettable, and most special of all! Not only were we offered the opportunity to experience most of the new attractions opening at SeaWorld San Diego this summer, but we also had fun, close-up encounters with some of SeaWorld's adorable animal ambassadors!
Our exclusive behind the scenes tour of SeaWorld started at the all new Orca Encounter, which features a three-story, first-of-its-kind infinity screen and a rugged coastline backdrop complete with towering pines and picturesque waterfalls. Unlike the theatrical shows that SeaWorld visitors are familiar with, Orca Encounter combines a live orca presentation with a documentary-style digital presentation. You can learn a lot about what killer whales do in the wild on the 140-foot-wide screen while observing their natural behaviors up close.
See how beautiful the whales blend in their digital environment? I have to admit that my mind got a bit too busy trying to follow the whales in the water and to fully process all the information provided by the narrator at the same time. I'd definitely want to watch the presentation again, in order to gain better knowledge about these amazing creatures. Orca Encounter is now only available at SeaWorld San Diego. SeaWorld parks in Orlando and San Antonio will move to this new presentation by 2019.
