Teachers do so much and in appreciation for all their hard work SeaWorld is offering free admission to Florida teachers through 2024.
SeaWorld in Orlando is one of my favorite places. I don't go for the thrills, but rather I go for the animals. I absolutely love the penguin exhibit and all the animal shows. Hate to admit this, but I actually cried last time at the dolphin show. People were looking at me like I was crazy and through tears "they're just so beautiful".
While I find the ticket value extremely worth it, it's obviously even better if you can go for free. And SeaWorld is offering free admission for teachers through September 5, 2024. The Teacher Card is available to all certified K-12 teachers in Florida.
