SAN DIEGO, CA (March 19, 2025)—SeaWorld San Diego is thrilled to unveil its highly anticipated Jewels of the Sea: The Jellyfish Experience, the largest standalone jellyfish exhibit in the country, which is now open to the public.
In this groundbreaking, first-of-its-kind attraction at SeaWorld Parks, visitors are invited to immerse themselves in the mesmerizing world of jellyfish. Jewels of the Sea showcases these otherworldly animals' enchanting beauty, fascinating biology, and mysterious allure.
Designed to be both captivating and educational, Jewels of the Sea offers visitors a unique opportunity to explore a variety of jellyfish species through engaging, interactive exhibits. The experience features three distinct galleries, each offering a unique perspective on jellyfish and showcasing the variety of jelly species and their locations from the shallow levels of ocean to the deep unknown. Guests begin their journey with an introduction to the fascinating world of jellies, answering key questions about their stings, life cycle, and anatomy. The murals on the walls will guide guests from shallow mangrove forests, where upside-down jellies live, through coral reefs, and into a deep ocean trench, symbolizing deeper exploration.
The exhibit opens with nine unique varieties of jellies species displayed through over 15 aquariums. Highlights include one of the largest jellyfish cylinders in the country, a cascading water globe filled with jellyfish, and a fully interactive LED gallery that brings the ocean's wonders to life. Throughout Jewels of the Sea, the wall corners are rounded to symbolize the flow of ocean currents. The lighting pulses from the arch to the cylinder tank, mimicking the movement of jellies in ocean currents.
The exhibit provides a deep dive into the jellyfish life cycle, anatomy, and conservation – one of the key reasons SeaWorld San Diego chose to create this experience. The exhibit also underscores SeaWorld's commitment to marine education and the preservation of ocean ecosystems.
