Penguin Encounter

Penguin Encounter houses several species of penguins in a climate-controlled habitat that replicates Antarctic and sub-Antarctic conditions. Guests walk through a moving sidewalk past the colony, observing penguins swimming, waddling, and socializing.

Penguins face growing threats from climate change, overfishing, and oil spills. SeaWorld's penguin conservation programs support research into penguin health, reproduction, and the impacts of a warming climate on these beloved seabirds.
