The vision for SeaWorld San Diego’s latest addition.

Last year, Emperor ruled SeaWorld San Diego. This year, the theme park will roll out two more major additions, Arctic Rescue — the roller coaster we first told you about last fall — and its newly-announced play zone dubbed Rescue Jr.
Let’s take a look at the kid-friendly area planned for the ever-changing local attraction. It’s set to open Saturday, May 27.
Rescue Riders is a jet ski-themed ride being added to the new play zone.

According to SeaWorld San Diego, Rescue Jr. is set to open later this spring alongside Arctic Rescue. It’ll replace the park’s Sesame Street Bay of Play, so “Sesame Street” fans will have to head to sister park Sesame Place San Diego for that kind of fun.
Rescue Jr. will focus on teaching kids about animal conservation through interactive play, and access will be included with park admission.
Tidepool Twist offers a “twisting, turning journey.”

SeaWorld says this play area is the “first and only of its kind” across all its parks and puts animal rescue at its forefront.
Jim Lake, SeaWorld San Diego Park President, said in a press release that he hopes the addition “ignites a passion in kids to become animal rescuers, scientists, veterinarians, or conservationists.”
We’re keeping a close eye on this opening and will bring you updates as we get them.
Rescue Jr. will feature a splash pad with fountains that mimic the wake of a harbor.
