On this page, we'll talk about still MORE Sea World San Diego attractions! While SeaWorld is best known for its marine animal shows and displays, there's plenty of fun for you at SeaWorld after you finish watching Shamu, Clyde & Seamore, and the dolphin show! On this page, we'll talk about--- 1.) Cirque de la Mer show: A popular summertime acrobatic show...that takes place partly on water! 2.) Pets Rule Show: Any pet lover will think this SeaWorld show featuring dogs and cats is absolutely ADORABLE! 3.) Sesame Street 4D Movie: Elmo and his friends are literally BURSTING to meet you---bursting off of the screen, that is! This fun new Sesame Street movie debuts at Seaworld on March 14, 2008. 4.) Sesame Street Bay of Play: A new Sesame Street-themed play land takes over the spot where Shamu's Happy Harbor used to be, beginning May, 24, 2008. PLUS, there will be new kiddie rides in this area! Photo note: In the slide show above, you're viewing pictures of Cirque de la Mer, a summer show at SeaWorld San Diego that's both beautiful AND amazing. As you can tell from the photos of acrobats doing fantastic stunts, your jaw will drop as you watch them perform! Cirque de la Mer show
While similar shows are held in auditoriums, theaters and tents in a number of other cities, the SeaWorld Cirque show is held on San Diego's scenic Mission Bay. SeaWorld's location at the water's edge was just right for building a large outdoor amphitheater for this show's home. The location is beautiful; you'll enjoy looking out over the water even before the show begins. When the action starts, you'll be thrilled! Colorful costumes and an original soundtrack add sizzle to this interesting display of acrobatic talent. 
It's the acrobats and their movements, though that will keep your eyes riveted upon them. The acrobats leap and somersault. They twist, bend and turn in amazing ways. They perform feats requiring both strength and agility. And they do it all while hanging high over Mission Bay! (Or working on platforms where they could fall into it!) During the summertimes at SeaWorld, be sure you catch this breathtaking performance, which is held several times daily during the busy season at the park. Cirque Stadium is located at the "back" of the park along Mission Bay. Be sure you pick up a park map as you enter SeaWorld so you can find it easily. (But if you forget, check the helpful SeaWorld directional signs to get you pointed in the right direction.) Attractions at SeaWorld -- Pets Rule!
Not all of the animals at SeaWorld make their homes in the sea. At the cute and clever "Pets Rule!" show, everyday household pets---and some exotic pets, too---get to show off their moves. At Pets Rule! you'll see dogs, cats, birds...and even a performing potbellied pig! (You can see a picture of the potbellied pig to your left.)The Pets Rule! show features pets who were adopted from shelters and animal rescue agencies! One thing that the SeaWorld folks want to remind us by staging this show, is that the same training techniques that work for dolphins, whales and seals...will work for you and your pets at home, as well! One thing is sure---the pets performing in the show are ALWAYS cute and lovable-looking! The Pets Rule! show is held in a large, outdoor stadium-style arena. After the program begins, the main entrance is closed, but you'll still be welcome to enter through a back stairway. Don't worry---employees will be available to guide you. And what if it rains? This show needs to be cancelled when the stage is wet...so that the animal actors won't slip and fall. BUT, a real treat is in store for you instead: you'll get to meet and pet some of the dogs who perform...and ask questions of their trainers, too! What a special way to rescue a drizzly day, isn't it? Attractions at SeaWorld -- Flamingo Exhibit
Do you like beautiful, flame-colored flamingos? You'll find them at Sea World San Diego! (Speaking of "flame-colored," the word "flamingo" actually DOES derive from the same root as the word "flame!" So, in some distant era long ago, these exotic avians actually reminded someone of a roaring fire!)Want a little peace and a place to rest at SeaWorld? You'll find a second flamingo exhibit at SeaWorld...an attractive, secluded Flamingo grotto tucked away in a beautiful garden setting. In this photo, you see my step-daughter, Josie, posing for a picture with the beautiful birds in the background. RL Stine's Haunted Lighthouse 4D is gone, butA New Sesame Street 4D Movie opened March, 14, 2008!
Elmo and his friends can't wait until until you see their new 4D movie at SeaWorld San Diego! A brand new show featuring the Sesame Street characters opened in March, 2008---and it's already a big hit with the many families who visit Sea World!Though we're all sad to see the RL Stine's 4D show leave, it's exciting, nevertheless, to think about the all-new fun we'll enjoy beginning Spring 2008. What sort of surprises will Elmo and Big Bird have in store for us? As in all 3D films, the characters within the movie seem to "pop out" at you. And the "4D" part? That means there are extra special effects hidden within the structure of the theater itself. For example, if one part of the movie shows dripping water on the screen...you may find yourself feeling a drip of water coming from above your seat in the theater! Will adults without children in tow want to see the new Sesame Street 4D film? In my opinion, anyone who enjoys watching a good 3D movie would enjoy catching this show at least once. If you get a kick out of special effects which pop out of the screen, you should like the Sesame Street 4D "Imagination" movie. This show offers viewers plenty of moments in which they'll want to reach forwards to touch the objects coming at them. Personally, I enjoyed the effects so much that I'll probably see it again, whether or not I bring kids with me to SeaWorld. It's not the plot that's especially intruiging (although since it's a Sesame Street production, it naturally offers kids an educational message to think about.) It's the bounty of good 3D/4D special effects that gimick-lovers can enjoy. SESAME STREET LIVE SHOW: This spring, there has been a weekends-only live Sesame Street show on weekends only. In March and early April, there were only 2 performances daily on Saturdays & Sundays. It has been held in the Pets Rule stadium during the times when the pet show doesn't have a performance. Be sure to check your SeaWorld show schedule as you enter the park to see if it will be playing the day you attend. The Sesame Street live show has a beach theme. Kids won't care about the plot, however; they'll simply be excited to see the Sesame Street costumed characters in "real life." Elmo, Big Bird, Ernie & Bert and several others take part in the performance. However, this show, didn't seem to appeal to adults in the same way that the Sesame Street 4D movie did. A number of adults without children left the performance I attended before it ended. However, children and their families seemed to be quite pleased. It's still unclear if this will become a regular show at SeaWorld San Diego, or if it's simply a temporary attraction. Attractions at SeaWorld -- Shamu's Happy Harbor is gone, butSesame Street Bay of Play opens May 24, 2008!
Sesame Street characters will welcome your children to a new playground at SeaWorld San Diego beginning May, 2008! This new playground will replace the beloved "Shamu's Happy Harbor" which families have enjoyed at SeaWorld over the past few years. Since this playground is so well-loved (and will always remain in the hearts of those who enjoyed it,) this website will be keeping its "Shamu's Happy Harbor" page & pictures as a tribute to this attraction. You can reminisce & "stroll down memory lane" on the the "Shamu's Happy Harbor Pictures" page of this website.
Sesame Street characters are universally loved by children, and they'll make a great new theme for the SeaWorld play area. Plus, the new Sesame Street playground will have a BONUS---kiddie rides! Once the new Sesame Street Bay of Play opens, families with preschoolers will have more attractions to enjoy at SeaWorld San Diego than ever before. Three fun Sesame Street-themed kiddie rides will become instant "favorites" with your kids from the very first time they take a ride!

Cirque de la Mer is a summer-only show at SeaWorld San Diego featuring beautiful costumes and daring stunts.
In the picture of a cat walking with ease across a thin tightrope, you can see this feline's trememdous sense of balance in action. That's just one of MANY entertaining pet stunts and tricks that you'll enjoy at the Pets Rule! show. (Special sets and props are used throughout the "Pet's Rule" performance to help show-off the animals' abilities. The stage is colorful and attractive...and the props you see as you make your way into the stadium and take a seat turn out to be used in very inventive ways during the performance!)
