Seaworld San Diego Questions

[tinkstar390]

Hello everyone! This is my first post!

I have some questions. I bought the Silver passport. I am going for my 22nd birthday and im doing the dolphin interaction program.
1. Can I use the free parking the first time I go? (I have the evoucher)
2. Im pretty sure I can go 3 days in a row but I just wanna make sure...
3. Has anyone done the dolphin interaction program? If so, what are your thoughts.

I know I have more questions but I cant remember them right now..

Thanks!

San Diegan here. I think you'll have a great time.

1. Can I use the free parking the first time I go? (I have the evoucher)

Unfortunately no. They say as much on their website. You can always try at the parking lot entrance.

2. Im pretty sure I can go 3 days in a row but I just wanna make sure...

Yes, you can go as many days as you like. The Silver Pass has few to no blackout dates as far as I know. Of course this doesn't apply to the DIP.

3. Has anyone done the dolphin interaction program? If so, what are your thoughts.

My wife was one of the beta testers, then went again a second time once the program was going strong. She loved it. With the construction taking place at the Dolphin stadium, the DIP looks like its taking place at the main dolphin interaction area. Unfortunately, that's all I can contribute on this topic, other than to say it looks like great fun.

You're coming in two and a half weeks? The weather's been a bit wetter than normal with El Nino here in town. It doesn't seem to bother the park. We were there two weekends back for a day of heavy on and off showers. Part of the Sesame Street Bay of Play closed for a while, but that was about the only problem other than staying dry. Temperatures aren't too bad, in the 60 and 70s during the day.

For most locals its not really beach weather yet, but its not too bad unless you plan to go for a long swim. Where to go depends on what kind of beach you like. The party beaches are at Mission Beach just down the road from Sea World (there's a small amusement park here with a historic wood coaster) and at Pacific Beach not far north. For beauty I prefer La Jolla Shores about 15 minutes north via the 5 freeway or the Strand on Coronado.

If you give me a better idea of what you are looking for locally, I'll try to steer you in the right direction. San Diego is a great town.

I dont want a party beach and seeing as its gonna be close to spring break(i think) and im not planning on swimming lol.
Maybe something more calm and pretty with things to see. Im gonna look up that beaches you mentioned.

Thanks for your help!
