With two launches and a top speed of 43 mph, Manta does a great job of straddling that line between Family Coaster and extreme thrill ride.Ĭan’t get a better view than a coaster racing over flamingos. The Mack launch coaster opened in 2012, the first of SeaWorld San Diego’s coaster expansion. But, Manta remains my favorite coaster at the park. We’ll cross our fingers!Įmperor was a great addition to the park, and definitely offers the biggest thrills yet to SeaWorld San Diego. With the Wild Artic ride closing at SeaWorld San Diego in early 2020, it might be to make way for a new path or exhibit linking the back of Emperor in the future. Hopefully over time the park builds out more on that side, and connects the ride more directly to the Penguin exhibits. If I had one complaint about the ride, it’s that it’s off by itself in a weird dead end corner of the park, without much landscaping (yet) and mostly a view of the parking lot. Those vertical drops never stop being a little nerve wracking. The newest B&M dive coaster delivers the smooth, big thrills you expect from these coasters. Definitely a worthy coaster for a park that is growing out its ride lineup. My friend who joined me on this trip had never been on one and loved it, from the launch to the slow roll up top. And since there are only a few of these in the US, for most guests it should be a can’t miss ride. SeaWorld San Diego’s Premier Sky Rocket II coaster isn’t significantly different than other Sky Rocket II models, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t fun. Here are our favorite things about SeaWorld San Diego from that visit, and what makes it an excellent park for all ages! 6) Electric Eel
I visited the park for the first time in several years to get on their newest coasters and check out the latest animal exhibits. That includes the first B&M dive coaster on the West Coast, which opened earlier this year. While San Diego’s SeaWorld primarily focuses on animals, they’ve added multiple roller coasters over the last few years.
SeaWorld San Diego, the original SeaWorld park, opened way back in 1964 as a marine animal park and aquarium.
