Shamu Show: Believe

Great killer whale show! Loads of information in the pre-​show and even more questions answered during the show. Loved the Q&A during the show which answered so many of your basic killer whale questions. The whales did great tricks and worked well with their trainers. Fun show for sure!

This show was awesome! We watched the show around 9:15 pm. The theme was Believe: Christmas edition. The show started with the talk show hosts from 103.7 and 96.5 radio station that gave out the tickets for Sea World tonight from 5 pm to 10 pm.
The show began with a big screen showing what miracles are coming from kids being interviewed. Answers ranged from a miracle can be good to having no homework. It made me laugh. I did cry a little because there were mothers saying that a miracle was having a baby. The special bond between a mother and daughter is so special that it made me tear up as I thought of my daughter.
After the people talked, Christmas music played as you see Shamu and the killer whales do their jumps in the air and swim around the tank as they synchronize to the music.
Towards the end, a lady sings and performs a song about miracles. Very touching. I really enjoyed the show. Luckily, it only drizzled and did not rain. This was the major highlight at Sea World. I enjoy this show every time I see it.

With the tragedy Sea World had several years ago, the trainers no longer swim with shamu like they used to. However, it is still a quality show for the little ones. However, the more seasoned I get, and educate myself. .. I am against the confinement of these beautiful misunderstood whales being kidnapped and placed in a fish tank. Sea World has been lying to the public for years. Watch the story Black Fish on NetFlix to see what I am talking about. Free the whales! Boycott SeaWorld!

This is the end of the night show and it is wonderful except for one thing… you can barely see the whales! LOL… otherwise, there are screens that show a sort of story and you do see the whales once they breach and splash around. The coolest part is at the end immediately following the last evening show they put on a terrific fireworks display. A great way to end the day! Enjoy!

From my last experience the show seems to be getting worst as the interaction with the trainer and whales isn’t there anymore during the show. Show is supposed to be the main highlight for sea world and all the other shows top it out.

i believe these whales need to be free, not kept captive in a concrete pool being forced to perform circus tricks for frozen dead fish for profit, they were kidnapped from the ocean from their families, inbred in captivity knowing no life other than swimming in a concrete pool instead of 100’s of miles in the deep ocean with their pods. this is not entertainment.

It was such an amazing show!!! I haven’t seen shamu for more than 20 years! After seeing his show made me so so happy! They are so incredible and so smart! They are just so amaZing and funny! I was left speechless… Keep it up!

It’s always cool to see large animal perform tricks on command. It would be amazing if the trainers could go into the water with the whales but we all know that’s prolly never going to happen again, at least in America. Great show non the less. Sounds, lights and action match up pretty well. Great show to see when taking a break from waking around. Get there early though, seat fill up fast. Gates open 30 min before show starts.

This show is about 20 minutes long and they have several well-​trained killer whales that will keep you entertained. The baby killer whale seems to have learned quite well from its trainers and fellow whales. Overall, this is a pretty good show and if you are feeling up to it, go ahead and sit in the soak zone. You really will get drenched!

Love it! Best part of Sea World!

Took the family here last weekend.
The show we got to see was kind of boring. Nothing like in the pas and we have seen this show dozens of times. what happen?

In love with Shamu. The world’s largest animal doing acrobatics for us is indeed a remarkable feet. Loved the introduction on the planet and the efforts of rescue by sea world. Truly believe that each of us by going to sea world are doing our tiny bit to contribute to wildlife conservation and if it’s accompanied with entertainment that is re

oh my gosh! this is no brainer five star amazing show! on my cali trip we stopped by at San Diego to go to Sea World, and as usual it didn’t dissappoint me!
Shamu Show is one of the main highlights of Sea World infact probably everyone’s favorite, ever since I was a little girl I’ve always fancy killer whales infact they are my favorite marine predetor. I’ve always liked watching documentaries about them in every channel I could find, and I’ve seen this show probably three times and this trip was the fourth and I still love it and i still think that they are pretty amazing animals.
The trainers did a superlative job training the killerwhales to do some crazy flips and jumps etc.
CAUTION: when you do wach this show, there are soak zones that you will totally get soked and the water is really cold and you could end up smelling like fish so you might want to bring some poncho. They do sell some poncho and towels there but It’s cheaper to just but it outside the theme park.
Also sunblock is a must because at least have some spf15 so you don’t get sunburn.
PARKING:
is $ 15 and $ 20 for rows that are close to the entrance, so for families with kids, maybe the first row close to the entrance would be worth the money for you.

Really — I know that it’s Sea World and it’s been there forever, but you have got to see this show!!! It’s worth sitting in the boiling sun waiting for it — — and it’s so awesome to see these amazing whales up this close. If you get up too close, you will get soaked (we saw some kids came in bathing suits! smart mommas!!!), but if you sit in the top couple of rows of the lower section you won’t get wet (even though they say you will probably get splashed, we never had the water close to us).
Stunning, awe-​inspiring, and fun for the little ones!

Easily my favorite show of the day! Shamu is the first thing I think of when someone says Sea World, so naturally this was the first show I had to see when we first got there.
The tricks they have the whales doing are just incredible. For being such huge creatures, they can really launch themselves high up in the air! I especially loved when the were getting ready to give the whales the buckets of whatever (??) and they just nodded the heads up and down like «hell yea!» lol
It is what it is, chessy, family friendly enertainment.
5 stars.

First of all, this show is now called «One Ocean», but since this link already has reviews from this year, I will follow suit…
I haven’t seen «Shamu» since being in Orlando Florida when I was growing up… It was just as amazing as I remember!
The new show has a lot at the beginning about how we are all in this together as one planet and how we can help… Yes I know, but I didn’t come here to be guilt tripped into joining Green Peace, I WANA SEE BIG WHALES!
I was not disappointed… Some how my girlfriend and her sister convinced me to sit 3 rows up, which gave us a great view of the tricks (photos attached), but also put us front and center in the Splash Zone… But that’s what it’s all about right… This is Sea World! Huge pre-​historic beasts doing amazing tricks and getting people wet…
Come early to get good seats… There really isn’t a bad seat in the house, but to get the full effect of how big they are and how high they get out of the water, you need to be close. If you came to the park for one reason, I would say it would be to see this show… A second reason… Go ride Journey To Atlantis

Shamy show is just not what used to be… ever since that trainer got killed the trainers don’t even enter the water and the entire show is basically Shamu swimming in circles splashing. it’s cool and all but little bit boring.

Considering the trainers can’t get into the water with the whales anymore for safety reasons the show was pretty good. It focuses a lot on conservation and is pretty entertaining. I remember seeing Shamu as a kid and remember being totally amazed. After 20 years, I left not so amazed but still having a good time. Sea World has definitely lost some of it’s luster but it’s still a great family place to bring the kids and check out the shows.

First time seeing the Shamu show since I was a kid.
The show I watched was called «One World» and focuses on the theme of nature conservatism. It blends the use of 4 big movable and rotatable screens to show a video and music montage.
It astounds me the tricks the killer whales can do.
We were lucky to catch the 9pm show on a Saturday. Right after it ended, we stayed in our seats and had a good view and able to hear the music narration of the «Into The Blue» fireworks show.

Believe blends unique killer whale behaviors with elaborate set pieces, state-​of-​the-​art multimedia, music and choreography.
Believe takes guests on a journey in which anyone believe they can connect with these magnificent mammals.
I have seen both good and bad Believe shows. The recent ones are not as touching as when the trainers are in the water (because of the death of the trainer in Florida).
A must stop at SeaWorld. There is typically a night time show Shamu Rocks and a special Christmas time show.
