The rides can feel rough and jerky, but the kids love them. An all-day pass is usually the best value, since individual tickets add up; some attractions cost extra. Other activities include an elevated harnessed obstacle course, rock-climbing wall, roller coaster, laser tag, arcade, food, and a large indoor pool. Overall, it's a fun spot, though the area can feel sketchy at night due to reports of gang fights and shootings.

I will be honest about why this stood out. Good service has felt rare lately. We have sat through…read moreplenty of counters and plenty of meals where people barely looked up, where the smile was forced, and where the tip went out anyway. Ronan was the opposite of that. He was helpful, patient, and genuinely glad to be helping a family get their day started right. He put a smile on my daughter's face, my son's face, my wife's face, and mine. That is not a small thing. To the management at Belmont Park: Ronan deserves recognition, and he deserves a real shot at interviewing for whatever position he is aiming for. Whatever his vision is here, I believe he will excel at it. People like Ronan are the reason a family comes back. Thank you, Ronan. We appreciated it.

On September 14, 2026, I was visiting SeaWorld with my husband. While we were going through the…read moresecurity screening area, I witnessed a security employee, identified as Marcos Hernandez speaking to a previous customer in what I felt was an extremely disrespectful and inappropriate manner. He was yelling "with the bag!" When it was my boyfriend's turn to go through security, he proceeded through the metal detector as instructed. During the screening process, Marcos continued to speak to my husband in a disrespectful and confrontational manner. Yelling come on come on! I attempted to address the situation and communicate with him, but Marcos responded in a manner that I found completely unacceptable for someone working in a customer-facing position. At one point, Marcos stated words to the effect of "I don't give a f*"** when my boyfriend was attempting to speak with him. I was extremely disappointed and uncomfortable witnessing an employee speak to a guest this way. He said you can talk to manager she's right there I also attempted to address the situation and was told that the matter could be reported. I felt that the employee's behavior was unprofessional, disrespectful, and inconsistent with the level of customer service I would expect from SeaWorld. I am submitting this report because I believe the incident should be reviewed by management. Guests should be treated with basic courtesy and respect, regardless of the circumstances. I hope SeaWorld will investigate this incident and take appropriate action to ensure that guests are treated professionally by all employees, particularly employees responsible for security and the first interaction guests have when entering the park.

Tiki Town Adventure Golf Replay is a fun, kid-friendly spot with some really cool tropical decor…read morethat makes the experience feel a little more unique than your average mini golf course. It does get pretty busy since it's in a tourist-heavy area, so expect a steady flow of people and a faster pace through the holes. The course itself moves quickly--you can get through it faster than expected, which is great if you have younger kids with shorter attention spans. That said, it does feel a bit pricey for how quickly you finish the course. Still, the atmosphere and overall experience make it enjoyable, especially for families. Overall, a solid choice if you're looking for something fun to do with the kids while you're in the area--they'll definitely have a good time.

The Manta Ride Rollercoaster!…read more This coaster is the more tame one for SeaWorld. It's a good "warm-up" coaster before you hit the big leagues coasters like the Emperor. This one is smooth and enjoyable. It starts over by the Manta Pizza and goes all around, swooping over by the pink flamingos, and near by the bat ray shallows. It zooms all around the area and is lots of fun. This is a nice roller coaster! :)

The Flamingos are funny creatures. They have such oddly shaped bodies. Or maybe humans are the ones with odd shaped bodies? *shrugs* lol Still tons of fun to see them up close at SeaWorld. They are pretty in pink, but boy do they stink lol The water in that area has a strong smell to it. I wouldn't get too close lol

There was silence for about 5 seconds. Then, with her back still turned to me, she says, "yes," to which I respond, "Awesome!" The bar attendant still hadn't turned to look at me before yelling, "well, which one do you want?!" I was flabbergasted, and I could only think to respond, "whoa whoa whoa." She finally turns around and points at the bar, where there are cans laid out on display and taps, saying ,"these are the only ones." I make my selection, she pours, I pay, and I leave.
