Growing up in Southern California, I have many fond memories of SeaWorld. So, when my husband joined the military, I was excited to hear that military families can visit SeaWorld for free, yes, free. Since then, we have taken advantage of the amazing SeaWorld military discount a handful of times.
While most amusement parks offer discounts ranging from 5% to 50% off, SeaWorld provides complimentary tickets to the service member and their family. Here is what you need to know about going to SeaWorld for free:
What is the SeaWorld military discount?
Through the Waves of Honor program, you can receive free admission to SeaWorld San Diego, SeaWorld San Antonio, or SeaWorld Orlando. Every active duty service member can get in for free, plus three direct dependents. Spouses can redeem the tickets if the service member is overseas, but must log in under their account.
