Tidal Twister

Feel the thrill of this unique dueling roller coaster ride featuring high-speed turns and upside-down twists.

Tidal Twister is temporarily closed.

Introducing Tidal Twister, an all-new dueling roller coaster, now open at SeaWorld San Diego! The first of its kind in the world, this unique ride is an exhilarating experience that demonstrates the power of the ocean.



Accelerating to 30 mph, riders twist and bank as if they are riding the tide along a tight figure-8 track that includes dynamic Zero-G roll at the center section.



Two trains, holding 16 passengers each, load at opposite ends of the figure-8 and cross in the center with guests facing both forward and backward on the trains. A lower-height requirement (48") makes this a perfect ride for younger guests and families.





Another exciting element to Tidal Twister is SeaWorld’s continued commitment to the Rising Tide Conservation program. Located in Aquaria: World of Fishes aquarium, Tidal Twister will highlight SeaWorld’s founding role in supporting a sustainable alternative to collecting wild ornamental fishes, which supports healthy reefs in our oceans.
