Is this Sea World plan doable?

[loveysbydesign]

Tentative plan for 11/14/2010-hoping it won't be too busy for a Sunday as others will be at last day of F&W at EPCOT
Shows & times listed for the day!
Believe: The Spectacular Shamu Show 12:30, 2:30, 5:30 Shamu Stadium
Blue Horizons 10:00, 11:30, 1:30, 3:00 Whale & Dolphin Theater
Clyde & Seamore Take Pirate Island 10:45, 12:15, 1:45, 4:45 Sea Lion & Otter Stadium
A'Lure, The Call of The Ocean 1:30, 3:30 Nautilus Theater
Pets Ahoy! 10:45, 12:15, 1:45, 3:15 Seaport Theatre

Came up with this plan so far.
(We were there in 2007 and only saw 2 shows...dolphins and shamu. We may go back a 2nd day.)
1. Manta(for me and 11 y.o. ds)while others look at turtles
2. Feed dolphins & see stingrays & manatees
3. Pets Ahoy show@10:45 or 12:15 depending time -hoping to do earlier show!!!!
4. Lunch before or after Pets Ahoy!
5. Walk through Penguins (Kraken if no line for me and 11y.o. ds, maybe Atlantis depending on weather/lines)
6. Clyde & Seymour show @ 1:45 & visit Pacific Pt. preserve
7. Shark Encounter
8. Wild Arctic/ Happy Harbor for kids…get snacks to hold over til we get home before show
9. Believe Shamu show @ 5:30
Head home!

That's quite a plan! The only real problem is trying to schedule everything around the show times...which can be difficult.

If you can spend two days, you should if you want to see everything.

We have a rest day scheduled for Thurs(after spending time at AK, SW, MK, DHS and EPCOT-whew!)...if we feel up to it we may go back to SW or go to the beach.

anyone else????

Your morning sounds a little TOO packed.

I assume you're getting there at 9am (their front entrance usualyl opens around 845) and going straight to manta (There is an aquairum under the manta coaster that the non-riders could look at, and I highly reccomend).

From there I'd go straight to the dolphin feeding area for the 9:30 feed (remember, each person going in has to buy at least one tray of fish to enter the feeding area, so it is $7 per person). After that I'd say, catch the stingrays and the dolphin underwater viewing, and start heading back to the Pets Ahoy theater. It only holds a couple hundred people (as opposed to the few thousand that the stadiums hold) so ti fills fast, you want to be there 20-30 mintues prior to opening. You will probably have to get lunch after Pets Ahoy, but you'll already be in the Water Front area, so you could go to Voyagers, Seafire inn or the pizza place rightbehind the pets ahoy theater.

The afternoon looks nice though!

Thanks...I'm hoping we'll get to the earlier show but I have no idea how long the kids will want to linger at the stingrays and manatees....they are a must do for them!

I would note that feeding the dolphins varies and we have always dropped in there almost the first thing after the park opens. Once the dolphins are full the line is closed until later in the day. Stingrays feeding is also available and is readily available throughout the day.

Most shows last 30 minutes and if it matter where you sit, you should plan on arriving at least 15 minutes before the show starts.

The feeding of the dolphins is a must for us.
We are going to SeaWorld via our cruise in February.
We should make it to the gate at opening.
How fast does this area close to feeders? (i am so worried we will miss it-- then what do i do???
