We are going to spend 1 day at sea world this trip. 5 @ WDW , 1 beach day, 1 Busch and 1 aquatica.

We are trying to avoid spending weekends at the parks bc we figure they are busier then. But in a 2 week span something has to give.

Was thinking sea world might be the best one to go on a Saturday? Or the beach?

Thoughts from those with experience?? May 21 would be the day I'm talking about. Thanks!

The Dibb has a "busy day guide" that can be helpful for planning your SeaWorld days. You can find it here:

It does list SeaWorld as a "least recommended" park for May 21st.

Gina, that's a helpful website. We are doing a DC/SW/BG/AQ/Legoland trip this year. I always wondered why they never listed those parks on any touring plans I have used.

It's pretty much the only site I've been able to find that addresses crowd levels for the SeaWorld parks. Glad you found it helpful in your planning, too!

Agreed! I was at SeaWorld on Christmas, and it held crowds really well (as compared to Disney)

I agree, but it's still helpful information all the same. If we can avoid the most crowded days, that's a plus for our family

We were there January 12 and it was dead. Everything was walk-on. I don't think the entire population would have filled dolphin stadium.

What a delight to have the place almost to yourself!
