Aquatica is Sea World's water park and, like Disney's water parks, offers a wave pool, slides and a lazy river, but without the same thematic setting. The overall atmosphere of Aquatica lacks the charm found in Disney's water parks. At Aquatica, you'll find yourself climbing steps up brightly colored towers to reach the slides, with no additional decor to enhance your wait time !
Aquatica lives up to its reputation with an array of slides to make you lose track of time ! Initially, it might be hard to navigate the park, but maps are available to guide you.
Dolphin encounter
After entering Aquatica, you'll pass by the Commerson's dolphin pool with its distinctive black and white dolphins. You can pause to admire them through the pool's transparent walls. The pool is also crossed by two transparent tubes from a nearby slide, the « Dolphin Plunge ». If you're lucky, you might catch a glimpse of the dolphins as you slide through !

Relaxation, sliding and speed !
The lazy river, with its current, lets you float on large yellow or blue inflatable tubes while you explore the park. The wave pool awaits you for sunbathing and relaxing !
