Expedition Odyssey, an all-new Arctic adventure, debuts May 9, 2025. This groundbreaking attraction combines dynamic ride technology, stunning real-world Arctic footage, and up-close animal experiences.

Where Thrill Ride Meets the Real Arctic
At the heart of Expedition Odyssey is a next-generation ride system that offers an unprecedented range of motion, creating a seamless blend of simulation and reality. Guests will journey through towering glaciers, sweeping tundra, and the icy depths of the Arctic Ocean—encountering awe-inspiring wildlife like polar bears, orcas, beluga whales, seals, and walruses, all brought to life through exclusive footage captured in remote Arctic regions.

A Family-Friendly Expedition
With a minimum height requirement of just 39 inches, Expedition Odyssey is designed for explorers of all ages. The indoor setting ensures a thrilling escape no matter the weather, making it a year-round adventure for the entire family.

Meet the Arctic’s Most Amazing Animals
After the ride, guests can continue their Arctic journey with face-to-face encounters featuring real animals, including beluga whales, seals, and walruses. Among them is Uki, a rescued Pacific walrus calf orphaned in Alaska, rescued by the Alaska SeaLife Center and brought to SeaWorld Orlando in September 2024, Uki now thrives in a custom-built habitat and serves as an ambassador for Arctic wildlife conservation.

“An Adventure Unlike Anything Before”
“We are pleased to announce the opening date of Expedition Odyssey, an experience unlike anything our guests have seen,” said Jon Peterson, Park President of SeaWorld Orlando. “This attraction combines thrilling, immersive storytelling with meaningful connections to real Arctic animals—bringing the wonder of the Arctic to life in a way only SeaWorld can.”
