Theming Atlantis

Journey to Atlantis at SeaWorld San Diego ( San Diego , California , USA ) is a water coaster model Water Coaster from the manufacturer Mack Rides , which opened on May 29, 2004.

The 29 m high water roller coaster has an 18 m high descent on which the carriages reach a top speed of 68 km / h. The travel time is around 5 minutes and the maximum acceleration is 3 g. Part of the route runs through an elaborately themed building. Inside, a water ingress and with it the sinking of Atlantis is shown. Architecturally, the building with domed towers and arches combines different styles into a fictional "Atlantic style". The runway lacks a large dark ride section like Journey to Atlantis in SeaWorld Orlando, but it has a significantly longer roller coaster section. As a further special feature, in addition to a conventional chain lift, a vertical lift is also used within the building, in which the hybrid vehicles are pulled up on a piece of rail perpendicular to the final departure.

dare

Journey to Atlantis has individual wagons that both travel on rails and float as boats. Eight people (four rows of two people) can be seated in each car.
