🗣️ Penguin Encounter: Reviews
Fantastic experience: It's my favorite part of sea world
Negative experience: The glasses were very misty and unable to see what's inside clearly.
Fantastic experience: Kid friendly environment, Bert similar to how penguins would be in their natural habitat. Just wanted to mention, it smells really bad.
Positive experience: Experience Depends on when you go, in the warmer months, the penguin exhibit will be darker, you will not be allowed to take pictures. In the colder months it will be brighter, and you will be able to see the penguins, they also have puffins.
Positive experience: It's always good to see the penguins, just smelly.
Positive experience: Love these little guys. It was pretty dark inside there at the time of our last visit. They were pretty hard to see. But the Antarctic penguins were outside and the puffins were entertaining inside.
Positive experience: Not much to see right now due to the fact that they're pretending that those animals are living in antarctica. In other words, it's so dark that you can't see virtually Anything there until they turn the lights on again.
Negative experience: Terrible lighting and not much to see as the the glass was dirty and lost of condensation.
Positive experience: Got in Sea World on free veterans tickets. My son loves the penguin exhibit and it is the nicest I've seen.
Positive experience: Kids loved seeing the penguins.
Fantastic experience: Penguins and their brief introduction shared in an incredibly communicative manner.
Positive experience: Very nice, but its difficult to see the penhiluins and there is too much ambient lighting in the viewing area to see much of the habitat. I get that the penguins need darkness, but make it darker in the people are and keep the glass clean!
Fantastic experience: Accessibility: Wheelchair accessible exhibit to see the penguins, but VERY DARK INSIDE IN SUMMER, SO I DO NOT RECOMMEND COMING IN SUMMER. Experience: in summertime here in San Diego, Sea World has the penguin exhibit EXTREMELY dark inside, to copy the real experience they would have in the wild. You can't see anything, so I recommend coming to Sea World in other seasons if you want to see penguins. Still very educational, though! There is also a penguin-specific gift shop inside the penguin building.
Positive experience: The Penguins are great. The environment and penguins do seem over crowded and its sticky. The smell was to be expected. They are birds and birds are not very clean. Over all it was nice the out door environment seemed a better captivity. Cleaner less crowded for the animals.
Fantastic experience: The Penguin exhibit is awesome to see. It was a bit packed but I was still able to get a nice view of the penguins.
Positive experience: Always fun and educational. I want to take them all home!
Fantastic experience: It is all good and fun with these penguins until you smell that sea odour.
