A new, interactive sea turtle attraction and thrilling new rides will bring more waves of adventure to SeaWorld & Aquatica San Antonio in spring 2019. SeaWorld will unveil Turtle Reef™, a fascinating habitat where you can get an up-close look at threatened and endangered sea turtles, plus learn about the threats the species face in the wild. The focal point will be a 126,000-gallon coral reef-themed environment, with a unique and natural biofiltration, featuring rescued and non-releasable green sea turtles, along with hundreds of multi-colored Caribbean fish.
New, this year at Aquatica will be Ihu’s Breakaway Falls®, a new, steep, one-of-a-kind, multi-drop tower slide, which is named after Ihu, Aquatica’s colorful gecko, who searches for the biggest thrills, steepest hills and coolest spills in the waterpark.
SeaWorld & Aquatica have introduced an assortment of crowd-pleasing attractions include:
In conjunction with the opening of Turtle Reef, two new family rides will debut – Riptide Rescue™, where you and your family can board a boat and set out on your own sea turtle rescue mission aboard this classic spinner ride, and Sea Swinger™, a thrill ride that swings riders 180-degrees in both directions.
An important aspect of Turtle Reef is a new partnership between SeaWorld San Antonio and The University of Texas Marine Science Institute’s Amos Rehabilitation Keep (ARK), which will receive 5 percent of the net proceeds from turtle-themed merchandise sold at SeaWorld. ARK’s primary mission is to rescue and rehabilitate sick and injured sea turtles, birds, terrestrial turtles and tortoises found along the South Texas coast, with the goal of releasing them to their native habitat. inches away.

Pirates of the Deep Sea, is a state-of-the-art gaming experience that pits the cunning skills of guest buccaneers against a marauding band of plundering pirates who try to hornswoggle them out of stolen bounty.
You and your family board a weathered pirate ship, Man-o-War, to sail through the raging storms of the Bermuda Triangle. As they float past the eerie remains of ghost ships, riders are caught in the middle of a dramatic battle between their pirate ship and an angry mob of pirates portside. Riders will need to be quick on the trigger to blow the man down and defeat the swashbuckling scalawags. As they battle, guests compete with fellow shipmates by firing at hundreds of themed targets to tally a score of their victory at sea.
Pirates of the Deep Sea is open now and located in Fiesta Bay Boardwalk.
