Earlier today, SeaWorld announced that they will be investing time and money to create a larger environment and habitat for the killer whales inside all three parks in San Diego, Orlando and San Antonio.
This new space will let the whales roam more freely than ever, as the space will cover about 1.5
acres. Whales will also be able to dive deeper than ever, with the distance downward of 50 feet.
Through glass, guests will be able to have a great viewing location of the majestic creatures. The company believes this will change how guests see whales in a whole new way.
SeaWorld has also pledged $10 million for killer whale research.
SeaWorld says this new area will cost hundreds of millions to create this new habitat. The first Blue World environment will open up at SeaWorld San Diego around 2018. The San Antonio and Orlando park will open theirs after.
