Must See Shows

[anett]

Our first time in SeaWorld in over 15 years! We arrive early Nov. on a Sat. and heading directly to the park. We know that Believe is a must see, what else in your opinion are the Must See Shows. Also how early do you have to get in line for a show? example: 1pm Believe show, can we walk-in at 12:45 and still be seated?

Unfortunately, Believe is no longer the Shamu show at the park. Believe has been replaced with a new Shamu show called "One Ocean." One Ocean actually just opened last month. In my opinion, One Ocean is better than Believe.

As far as shows, I would see "Blue Horizons" (dolphin show), Clyde And Seamore take Pirate Island (Sealion, Otter and Walrus show) and One Ocean (Shamu Show). If you have kids with you, I recommend seeing the Dog and cat show "Pets Ahoy." If your party is mainly adults, then I think Pets Ahoy can be skipped without missing much.

If you arrive to a stadium 15 minutes before posted show time, you will most likely be able to get a seat but not a very good one. If you want the best seats, arrive to a stadium 45 minutes before posted show time.

I agree about arriving early to shows. We arrived 30-45 min. before Clyde and Seamore,Pets Ahoy,One Ocean, and Sea Lions Tonight,and we had very good seats to all.The venues filled up quickly.Pets Ahoy was in an enclosed arena,and to get good seats up close to see all the amazing animals,I do recommend early arrival.

It depends on how many times they are offering the show that day and what type of seat you're looking for. Are you ok with being in the back? What if there are only "soak zone" seats left? When we were there a few weeks ago, it was a midweek off season schedule so only showing One Ocean at 12:30 and 6:30. The 12:30 show reached capacity a little after 12. We had our choice of seats at the 6:30 showing. If OO is only showing 2X, eat your lunch during the mid day show (restaurants will be empty!) and see the 2nd OO. It's a great way to end your day.

For the Clyde & Seymour show, I would get there early because the mime that entertains the crowd before the show is funnier than the show itself.

Agree completely.
