ORLANDO, Fla. – SeaWorld’s Aquatica will open its all-new body slide, Reef Plunge, to guests on March 13.

As guests slide through translucent cutouts and rings and twist and turn through over 330 feet of fiberglass, they will spot a vibrant array of marine life in the new habitat. Animals include Commerson’s dolphins, leopard sharks, sardines and a variety of other cold-water fish which will call the new attraction home.
