SeaWorld San Antonio has just revealed ambitious plans for a new family-friendly zone, the Rescue Jr. hub, which is set to debut in the Spring 2025. Designed to immerse young guests in the world of marine rescue, this hands-on, interactive area will serve as a playful introduction to the important work SeaWorld does in rescuing and rehabilitating animals. 

The park aims to inspire the next generation of animal lovers, scientists and conservationists by connecting them to real-world rescue efforts through engaging rides, activities and educational experiences. Attractions will have kids zooming, climbing, splashing, and engaging with simulations of the real-life rescue and rehabilitation work performed by SeaWorld’s teams.   

The Rescue Jr. area will feature a variety of attractions tailored to excite, entertain and educate children:

"Rescue Jr. will be an exciting addition to our park and put marine animal rescue at the forefront with our guests. The new play area will be a fun and exciting way for our guests to learn about the animal rescues that our dedicated teams do every day, 365 days a year," said Jeff Davis, Park President, SeaWorld San Antonio. "We know that Rescue Jr., along with all of our animal habitats and presentations, will ignite a passion in young hearts, inspiring them to become future animal rescuers, scientists, veterinarians or conservationists."
