Well Coming to the cool amusement park here in Sunny San Diego and guess what !! Here at SeaWorld and if your an annual pass holder then you get to ride the Sky Tower Skyride for Free !! Yes Free so finding out about this it was pretty darn amazing !! As you go up in the Tower you can see breath taking views of SeaWorld and you get an really cool View of Mission Bay also !! It's an ride for the whole family and your friends also !! I do suggest you give it a try and enjoy the ride !! Lots of cool views and it is really an ride you don't want to miss out on while you are at SeaWorld !! As we got in I pulled out my phone and started taking pictures of all the cool views from up top !!! Lots of fun for the entire family !! It's an ride I sure can find myself coming back and riding again !!! Overall it was fun and it is kind of packed and there are lines for ride but you don't have to wait too long we only waited about 20 minutes and it was worth it !! I sure can see myself coming back for sure !!! And enjoy more !!!

The Sky Tower ride at Sea World has been there ever since I can remember. Previously it would cost a few dollars per person to ride. It is now free which I really appreciate. The ride is a cylinder that slowly spins as it rises up the tower so you can see views of the San Diego bay and the surrounding area. The ride itself has two levels. There is a bottom level that you go down the ramp to get on the ride. It is usually less of a line. There is also a top level which usually has longer lines. Both levels provide great views and are a good way to spend a few quiet minutes at Sea World.

Quick 5-8 minute ride, so even if you're waiting in line, it's a pretty fast wait. I believe it goes up 2-3 times, and it slowly descends down back to the bottom. It's a 360 degree view of Sea World. Although you can a good view of certain parts of San Diego, it is also VERY depressing. Why? Because you actually witness all of the sea creatures exhibits (e.g dolphins, orchids, sea lions) and realize how small they are, and the amount of sea creatures that are squeezed into these exhibits. Not only are they exhibits, but they are essentially their homes. So it's depressing to see how small their homes are, when they're used to the wild of a big open ocean. I would still take this ride, because it's A) an amazing view B) gives you appreciation of the sea creatures & awareness of their "homes." Take this ride! you won't regret it & again, it's a fast ride.

This is a great quick ride that showcases a 360 view of Seaworld and San Diego. I remember this ride costing money when I was a kid, but is now free. This ride is a must do when visiting Seaworld. It's great for the whole family.

A park with a 100 year old coaster?! Sign me up!…read more As an amusement park aficionado, I was thrilled to check out this landmark. Full of ride options, dining, games and sites; Belmont Park has a little of something for all ages. While here me and a few friends split the 60 buck card option. We were interested in several rides. We rode the Giant Dipper Rollercoaster, Krazy Kars and Tiki Typhoon to name a few. All rides were fun and wait times were minimal. We did go at night though. I think one of the cool spaces at this park is the imported snacks store. They had several snacks not readily available here in the US. Be forewarned, you will also pay the price for sad scarcity. They also have a designated drinking area for those who imbibe. Want to save some money? Check Groupon for deals!

Belmont Park sits along the Mission Beach boardwalk, close to everything, with parking lots nearby…read more It's a fun tourist attraction, and we especially enjoy the mini golf and pineapple Dole Whip. The rides can feel rough and jerky, but the kids love them. An all-day pass is usually the best value, since individual tickets add up; some attractions cost extra. Other activities include an elevated harnessed obstacle course, rock-climbing wall, roller coaster, laser tag, arcade, food, and a large indoor pool. Overall, it's a fun spot, though the area can feel sketchy at night due to reports of gang fights and shootings.

I just had to leave a review in hopes that everyone will see this and hopefully pass this on to one…read moreof the general managers. I want to personally thank the staff and Thomas in security who helped my husband and I find our car keys that were lost. We visited the park yesterday and didn't realize the keys to our rental car were lost until the park closed. When we came back the next day Thomas went out of his way to search both lost and found areas to bring us our keys so we could make it out to our flight that was leaving that day. Mind you, at this point we were in the process of towing the vehicle because we had to get back to Los Angeles for our flight. Thomas was also having heart surgery and still ran to make sure we didn't tow away the vehicle. If you come across him please give him many thanks.
