Penguin Trek is located in the new Antarctica Realm, with guests disembarking straight into the chilly climate of SeaWorld’s penguin habitat. In doing so, the attraction aims to not only thrill, but also educate guests about the conservation work at the heart of SeaWorld’s mission.
After a ride on Penguin Trek, guests can cool off at South Pole Sips, a bar offering draft beer, canned drinks, and deliciously refreshing frozen cocktails. And the whole family can fuel up for even more fun with lunch at the reopened Expedition Cafe, where quick and tasty Italian and Asian inspired dishes are on the menu.
