In July 2005, SeaWorld Orlando formulated plans to add a water park to its tribute, which already comprises SeaWorld and Discovery Cove; the water park is also expected to combine water thrill rides with marine life, with attractions such as clear acrylic tube slides through pools containing Commerson's dolphins. The park is scheduled to start up in spring 2007.

One of the biggest attractions is the Shark Encounter, in which guests are taken through submerged acrylic tube into the sharks' tank.
