SeaWorld Yas Island, Abu Dhabi, the region’s first Marine Life Theme Park, is celebrating its first anniversary. The colossal theme park spanning over 183,000 sqm across five indoor levels officially opened its doors to the public on May 23 last year, offering guests the chance to explore eight unique and immersive realms witnessing breathtaking marine life, majestic colors and fascinating experiences. Over the past year, SeaWorld Abu Dhabi has not only provided thrilling entertainment but has also shown strong commitment to the ocean through education, conservation and community engagement.
During this short time span, the Marine Life Theme Park has achieved incredible milestones and clinched 13 international awards including winning a coveted place in the Guinness World Records™ as the ‘Largest Indoor Marine-Life Theme Park’ in the world. The park also received certification from Global Humane — the international brand of American Humane and the world’s largest certifier of animal welfare. It was the first Global Humane certification in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region and signifies the high standard of animal care provided at SeaWorld Abu Dhabi and the Yas SeaWorld Research & Rescue Center, located adjacent to the Marine Life Theme Park.
