We’re only at the beginning of the holiday season but Sea World San Diego is already looking ahead to 2019 which will bring with it a new roller coaster, new Annual Pass offerings, and a full year-long roster of entertainment options and events.
Tidal Twister Roller Coaster
Tidal Twister, a dueling roller coaster, is a thrilling new attraction planned for 2019. The first of its kind in the world, this unique and horizontal ride is an exhilarating experience that demonstrates the power of the ocean. It will be located adjacent the Aquaria touch pool and aquarium in the northwest corner of the park.
Roller Coaster Features
- Acceleration up 30 miles per hour
- A tight figure-8 track that includes dynamic Zero-G roll at the center section.
- Two trains, holding 16 passengers each, load at opposite ends of the figure-8 and cross in the center with guests facing both forward and backward on the trains.
- A lower-height requirement of 48 inches makes this attraction a perfect ride for younger guests and families.
Tidal Twister, a Skywarp Horizon model built by Skyline Attractions, is scheduled to open May 2019.
