If you’re looking for something a little different for your next Orlando trip, you might want to skip Disney World and Universal Orlando and visit SeaWorld Orlando instead.

Why? Well, SeaWorld Orlando has a lot of fun attractions, plus you can spend some time getting to know some sea-worthy animals. SeaWorld Orlando even has a ride that rivals Soarin‘. AND a brand new dark ride is coming in 2026 that will take you to dizzying depths underneath the sea.

SEAQuest: Legends of the Deep promises to take riders on “an awe-inspiring voyage into the ocean’s most extraordinary realms” guided by the SEA Collective’s Adventure Team. The ride will be a “state-of-the-art submersible” that will allow you to “discover dazzling ecosystems, legendary sea life, and breathtaking stories of resilience and wonder.”

It will feature “an immersive feel and advanced special effects to a spectacular finale launch that celebrates the ocean’s resilience and beauty.” Check out the trailer for the new attraction:

The ride is expected to open in 2026. If you want to get an early preview, you might want to consider a SeaWorld Orlando Annual Pass because Annual Pass members will be among the first to ride it! If you sign up for an Annual Pass now, you’ll also get up to $100 in gift cards.
