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.

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.

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.

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!

Los ventanales están tan sucios que molesta a la vista para observar a los pingüinos y ya del olor ni hablamos, se siente incluso desde antes de entrar, no es culpa de los animalitos, el personal no está prestando la suficiente atención

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.

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.

Got in Sea World on free veterans tickets. My son loves the penguin exhibit and it is the nicest I've seen.

Makes you feel sad for the animals being caged up like that.

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.

Penguins and their brief introduction shared in an incredibly communicative manner.

It is all good and fun with these penguins until you smell that sea odour.

Mal olor, descuidado, el ventanal súper sucio ! No era así …

Always fun and educational. I want to take them all home!

Relativ große Pinguin Anlage. Mehrere Fütterungen am Tag.

Beautiful attraction! Penguins are beautiful!

Kids loved seeing the penguins.

Best spot to chill on a hot day
