ORLANDO, Fla., July 9, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- SeaWorld Orlando, renowned as the Coaster Capital of Orlando, is excited to announce that its highly anticipated new attraction, Penguin Trek, is now open. The grand opening was marked by a ribbon-cutting ceremony on Sunday, July 7, 2024, unveiling the unique family launch coaster within the all-new Antarctica Realm in the park. This immersive area offers an adventure of a lifetime, combining thrilling rides, delightful dining and unforgettable wildlife encounters.

Penguin Trek redefines the family coaster experience with its innovative design and exhilarating adventure. The ride accommodates everyone from young adventurers at 42 inches to tall thrill-seekers up to 77 inches, ensuring fun for the whole family. Guests will beat the summer heat while waiting in the air-conditioned queue lines before boarding unique snowmobile-styled ride cars. The thrilling expedition takes riders through the vast and icy wilderness of Antarctica with two powerful launches, reaching speeds up to 43 mph along a 3,020-foot track that winds through both indoor and outdoor environments. The highlight of the journey is the finale, where guests exit the ride and are immersed in an extraordinary penguin habitat, underscoring SeaWorld's commitment to animal care and conservation.

SeaWorld Orlando's commitment to providing diverse thrills for all family members is evident in Penguin Trek's unique indoor/outdoor coaster experience. This latest addition to the coaster family promises to be another crowning jewel in a park already celebrated for its coaster excellence. Joining the ranks of award-winning rides such as Mako, voted the #1 Best Roller Coaster by the USA Today 10Best Readers' Choice poll for five consecutive years, and Ice Breaker, which secured the #1 New Attraction spot in the same poll, Penguin Trek continues SeaWorld Orlando's legacy of pushing the boundaries of coaster innovation for the whole family.

The new Antarctica Realm, home to Penguin Trek, is a must-visit destination within SeaWorld Orlando, offering a cool and captivating experience for guests of all ages. Visitors can chill out and refresh at South Pole Sips, the latest addition to SeaWorld Orlando's vibrant bar scene, offering ice-cold draft beer, canned selections and tantalizing frozen cocktails. The beloved Expedition Café has also reopened within the Antarctica Realm, featuring a diverse menu that caters to every palate, from healthy grab-and-go options to delectable dishes inspired by Italian and Asian cuisines. Additionally, guests can enjoy up-close encounters with penguins in the expansive penguin habitat.

Get Immersed in the Club Wyndham SeaWorld Suite inspired by the Antarctica Realm

This summer, Club Wyndham®, one of the nation's largest vacation clubs, is inviting travelers to get their chill on in the coolest place they'll ever stay. Club Wyndham has partnered with SeaWorld® during its 60th Anniversary to introduce a custom designed suite at the Club Wyndham Bonnet Creek resort in Orlando, Florida, near SeaWorld Orlando.

Inspired by SeaWorld Orlando's all-new Antarctica Realm and all-new Penguin Trek coaster, the Club Wyndham SeaWorld Suite brings the majesty of the Antarctic to life inside a spacious one-bedroom deluxe suite. Chilling behind a carved-out ice façade at the front door are all the amenities Club Wyndham is known for, such as fully equipped kitchens (for snow cone making) and separate living and dining areas (for spreading out under a dazzling icicle ceiling). With plenty of Antarctic-themed games, a life size plush penguin to cuddle with, and projections of snow flurries and reflective water effects across the walls, these unique accommodations are the polar opposite of your typical summer vacation.

A portion of each Club Wyndham SeaWorld Suite rental booking will be donated to the SeaWorld Conservation Fund, a 501 (c)(3) non-profit private foundation founded in 2003 to raise support for a wide range of conservation projects. Since its inception, the Foundation has provided more than $20 million in grants to more than 1,300 global organizations and grassroots groups. 

The Club Wyndham SeaWorld Suite sleeps up to four guests and is now available for two-, three- and four-night reservations between August 1 and September 8, 2024. Rates start at $399 per night*.
