SeaWorld Abu Dhabi: All you need to know

There will be more than five levels of marine animals in SeaWorld Abu Dhabi.

SeaWorld Abu Dhabi will open its doors to the world in 2023.

With more than 90 per cent of the construction completed at the next-generation marine-life theme park, the Yas Island centre will support regional and global conservation efforts, providing an advanced knowledge hub with a focus on indigenous Arabian Gulf and marine life ecosystems.

Built on five indoor levels over a total area of approximately 183,000sqm, the marine-life theme park will offer themed guest environments, habitats, rides, and immersive experiences as well as marine research, rescue, rehabilitation and return centre headed by marine scientists, veterinarians, animal care professionals, rescue experts and educators.

Set to be the region’s largest and most expansive multi-species marine-life aquarium, the central “One Ocean” realm of SeaWorld Abu Dhabi links six distinct marine environments throughout the park, all of which tell a unified story based on the interconnectivity of all life on earth and in our ocean.

Within the central hub, guests will encounter fascinating ocean stories presented in an expansive 360º fully immersive media experience, transporting them from one fascinating place to another, while they encounter much of the ocean’s diverse marine-life, learning how the One Ocean current impacts us all.

SeaWorld Abu Dhabi is anticipated to contain more than 58 million litres of water and be home to more than 150 species of marine animals including sharks, schools of fish, manta rays, sea turtles, reptiles, amphibians, and invertebrates in addition to hundreds of birds including penguins, puffins, murres, flamingos and more.
