Less glitzy than Walt Disney World or Universal, SeaWorld and is definitely worth a visit for a low-key, relaxing, ocean-theme experience. Ten minutes from both Universal and Walt Disney World, it is designed for animal lovers and anyone who prefers more natural pleasures. You'll watch a series of high-energy circus shows involving dolphins, whales, sea lions, a huge walrus, and even cats and dogs. Plus you can ride two thrilling roller coasters, one of which (Kraken) is considered one of the scariest rides in Florida.
