Going on now SeaWorld San Diego has opened its “One Ocean” attraction spotlighting SeaWorld’s majestic killer whales as ambassadors of the sea, and the ocean as the center of the natural world. The show features spectacular whale behaviors, including thrilling high-energy leaps and multiple whales performing simultaneously. The whales interact in new ways with trainers, the audience, each other, and even the set itself. In one segment, the whales play amid giant fountains. “One Ocean” replaced the popular “Believe,” a show that enjoyed a five-year run in all three SeaWorld parks. The new show premiered at SeaWorld Orlando on April 22 and SeaWorld San Antonio on June 10. For information, visit www.seaworldparks.com/one-ocean.
