Question Sea World Orlando Tips

I havent been to Sea World in a looooong time (7 years to be exact). So I have been itching to ride Kraken and JTA, and to celebrate my 15th birthday. So a few questions.

1. How crowded is the park on a Saturday?

2. How good is JTA? I keep hearing mixed reviews.

3. Which ride should I hit first?

1. Not too crowded. Everytime I have been this is how the ride lines are:
Kraken-10 min or less wait
JTA-45+min wait
Compared to IOA or Disney the crowds will seem like nothing.

2. I really like JTA. It's the only water coaster I've been on and even though the coaster part is short, it does what it needs to.

3. Since JTA's line is a lot longer I would hit that early in the morning, but you will be pretty wet for a while. You could even do Kraken first and still beat the JTA line if you are early.

JTA is awesome...one of my favorite water rides. I found the line on JTA moves pretty quick, because they always have someone grouping riders for full boats. Also, sit in th eback of the boat if you can, you'll catch more of the special effects that way.

I was just there last weekend, and the park was crowded, but the line for Kraken was never more then 10mins, unless we waited for front row, which was about 30mins.

JTA Wasn’t to bad either, it was a 45min. wait at about 2, then as the day went on, the wait went down to about 20 mins. I also really enjoy JTA, and would recommend going on that first and then drying off on Kraken. Also, if you sit in the very back, and there are "large" people in front of you, the rear of the boat will flood, and you're shoes will get soaked, so just a little warning there.

I'm going back tomorrow, and since last week was the last week of spring break for most schools, the park should be much less crowded. I hope you have a good time there when you go.

I'd wait for JTA and go on at night where there is absolutly no line. Kraken is awesome and the line for it is pretty short.
