SeaWorld - Manatee swim

[enchantica]

When we were in SW in October DD thought she saw an advertisment for a manatee swim/interaction. I've had a look at the web site but I can't see any mention of this at all. Does anyone know if SW have any behind the scenes type things that involve manatees?

TIA

I can't see anything for manatees specifically at Seaworld

The experiences page is here, including behind the scenes but I couldn't see anything for manatees, maybe you will

thanks for the info - DD is thrilled to learn that swiming with the manatee's is affordable. We're currently pricing up the things on our wish list so she can consider when she's going to be able to afford to go - and if it's not autumn 2009 then me and DH will be going without her and we'll just have to go again so she can join us on the next trip! We'd sort of pencilled in 2011 but I can't possibly wait THAT long!! I've been chatting about autumn 2009 as though it's a done deal, hoping DH doesnt notice the change of date from 2011!!
