It seems like we visit The Seas with Nemo roughly every other trip, but I do enjoy seeing the fish and manatees and think the work Disney does with the local Florida Manatees is really cool.

Do you normally visit The Seas with Nemo? What's your favorite part of this EPCOT attraction?


Here's the manatees from my last trip a little over a week ago:

...and can you find Nemo?
 
The aquariums, yes. The ride, no. DD14 is fascinated by manatees so we always spend some time just watching them, and DD7 likes to look around at the smaller fish and seahorses. The ride, though, we really don't like all that much since the addition of Nemo and friends so we only ride that maybe one trip out of four.
 

It is a great air conditioned break. We always visit at least once. Then explore the aquariums.
 
Yup! My husband loves fish and can easily kill an hour just staring into the tanks.
 
if we feel like it we generally just walk into the aquarium and skip the ride.
we'll spend maybe 20 minutes in there.

we preferred the attraction when it was the living seas.

we like to see the manatees although we use to be able to see them really close up at homosassa springs so it was never a highlight at epcot.
(unfortunately things have changed at homosassa so the water is very murky in the "fish bowl" and the manatees don't hang out right there anymore. the workers also don't stand in the water with them anymore during the manatee info show so typically they aren't hanging out there either. at least lou the hippo is still around though).

if my parents go to epcot in a few weeks they will probably go in but when my sister, niece, and i go new month we will probably be skipping it.
 
I go there only for the purpose of Turtle Talk With Crush. Once per trip I will do the ride, other times I will just enter through the other door. As I am leaving the building, I might look at some fish for a few minutes, but my interest in fish is just not there.
 
The ride is one of my favorite rides at Epcot, I just love anything Nemo and it's also a way to escape the heat. My favorite bit is the starfish at the end with words to the effect "don't leave me" or "get me out of here" with all the others singing in the background. You have to time it right to hear it though, so we have to do the ride many times. :stir: My DH loves the ride too, it's a nice quick nap for him, he can fall asleep at the drop of a hat. :rolleyes:

We do both the ride and the aquariums, and if my family is going to wait stand-by for Soarin', I spend that time in The Seas as well.
 
Yep always with the ride mainly because it is relaxing. My daughter loves manatees and we saw some good diver interaction with dolphins once. We don't spend a lot of time there tho
 
On my last trip (where I took the videos above) we got lucky - it started raining right around the time we got on the ride. We walked around the aquariums a little bit.... and when we went to leave it was POURING... so we stuck around for another 15 minutes inside, which wasnt crowded at all... and waited for the rain to stop. It was the perfect place to go to wait out the rain.
 
DS stayed home for our last two trips so we skipped this entirely. Not sure if DD and I will make the trek.
 
We ride it every trip - sometimes several times. Often skip the aquariums though depending on my son's mood (although we always play in the shark area).

And thank you for getting that darn song in my head. "In a big blue worrrrllllddd!!!"
