Roller coasters, theme parks and all things amusement industry
Grab your crew and prepare to dive. In 2026, SeaWorld Orlando’s new ride will chart a bold new course with the debut of SEAQuest: Legends of the Deep, a groundbreaking family indoor dark ride that invites trailblazers big and small to journey into the ocean’s most spellbinding secrets.
For the first time ever, SeaWorld Orlando is blending multi-sensory storytelling, imaginative ride technology, and the awe-inspiring experiences of the deep sea into one unforgettable voyage. Aboard state-of-the-art submersibles, guests will embark together on an expedition beneath the waves — discovering glowing worlds, exploring sunken shipwrecks, and encountering astonishing creatures that capture the exhilaration of the unknown.
“SEAQuest: Legends of the Deep redefines what a family attraction can be,” said Conner Carr, vice president of rides and engineering for the park. “By blending cutting-edge ride technology with the mystery of the deep sea, we’re creating an experience that inspires curiosity and brings explorers of all ages along for the adventure.”
SeaWorld Orlando’s First-of-Its-Kind Suspended Dark Ride
This all-new indoor suspended dark ride, in partnership with Vekoma Rides, will feature a smooth, gliding motion system that allows ride vehicles to swing and rotate through different themed environments — creating a cinematic experience. Featuring immersive audio in every vehicle, dynamic lighting, and a fully indoor setting, SEAQuest: Legends of the Deep offers an experience that lets families embark on a deep-sea expedition no matter the weather outside.
A Voyage for the Whole Family
Whether you crave the rush of discovery or want to experience the sense of awe that comes with exploring the unknown, this first-of-its-kind attraction plunges families straight into the wonders and mysteries of the deep. Guests of all ages can join the journey, taking in extraordinary ocean environments in a way that’s engaging, inspiring and unforgettable.
Launching in 2026 in a newly expanded area of the park, SEAQuest: Legends of the Deep is the latest addition to SeaWorld Orlando’s diverse lineup of attractions, giving families another unforgettable reason to return again and again, rain or shine.
SeaWorld Orlando is making spirits bright with its Black Friday Sale. Guests can unwrap up to 60% off Tickets, Fun Cards, and Annual Passes — the perfect way to gift a full year of ocean-sized adventure. With an exciting lineup of new events and entertainment coming in late 2025 and throughout 2026, these savings are too good to miss.
