Everyday SeaWorld hosts thousands of visitors and one of the most common questions asked by our guests is "what is it like to work with animals?" Today, one of our Senior Animal Care Specialists, Kortney, will give you a look into her world with seals and sea lions at the Pacific Point exhibit.

With more than 100 million views to date, the penguin cam at SeaWorld San Diego’s Penguin Encounter is even catching the eye of the Conan O’Brien show. We invited Conan’s sidekick, Andy Richter, down to spend some time with the 300 penguins and see for themselves what all the excitement was about.

Andy’s day at SeaWorld San Diego’s Penguin Encounter will air tonight on the Conan O’Brien Show, 11 PM / 10 PM CST on TBS.

After almost 14 years at SeaWorld San Diego, I just learned something new: penguins don’t know how to swim instinctively. In the wild, chicks are left alone to learn, which means waiting for the first one to take a plunge or fall in. But here at SeaWorld the keepers actually give annual swim lessons to the chicks born during the November and December hatching season. In February, about a dozen Adelie, gentoo and macaroni juveniles were secluded inside the Penguin Encounter while their adult plumage grew in.

The SeaWorld San Diego Skytower just had a little work done! The 320-foot tower was recently painted, which means the SeaWorld logo on top also needed to be replaced. So how exactly does our team get a logo way up on the top of that tower? Thanks to the GoPro camera, we are going to show exactly how they do that. Our lucky team of three scenic craftspeople started before the sun even came up and placed not just one but two logos on the Skytower. Caution, if you are scared of heights, you may want to make sure you are sitting down for this:

Rocky Point Preserve at SeaWorld San Diego has been undergoing some renovations for a few months and we are gearing up to reopen our area in less than one week! We are very excited and can’t wait to share our new-and-improved area with everyone. One of the big changes is there will be more access throughout the day around the pool, which means more opportunities to get up close to our resident bottlenose dolphins.

I’ve always wondered what it would be like to attend a movie premiere or special screening of a program before it was available to the public. While I still can never say I have done this, the penguins at SeaWorld San Diego sure can!

Had you checked in at SeaWorld San Diego’s Penguin Encounter last week, you would have met TC Conway, the affable director of innovative marketing for Discovery Channel who was busy-busy working on a very unique camera project for the cable network.

This year's edition of "Cirque de la Mer" will bring a brand new and exciting trampoline act to the show. But before the acrobats can start bouncing up and down out on the barge, the Theming Services Department has to design and build the huge set piece. Here's your first look at what to expect when the show debuts this Memorial Day Weekend.

It’s amazing how much progress can be made in such a small about of time. Manta made some big moves this week with the placement of some keys pieces of track. Specifically the pieces that make the sweeping 54 ft. drop under the attraction bridge are now in place. Here is a look at the latest progress in the construction of Manta at SeaWorld San Diego.

Here’s another “Going Green” enhancement at SeaWorld San Diego. We just installed 4 “Free” electric car charging units for our park guests in the parking lot! They are good for any 120 volt or 240 volt electric vehicles. We’ve already had several guests use the charging station and they work great!!
