Sea World is a marine park on the Gold Coast, Australia.
Founded in 1958 as the Surfers Paradise Ski Gardens, the attraction was moved down the coast to a 64-hectare site, and in 1972 received its present name, reflecting expansion into animal exhibition. In 2004, the park opened "Shark Bay", a system of artificial lagoons for the keeping and viewing of sharks and currently the largest shark lagoon in the world.
Sea World has commercial links to Movie World and Wet n Wild, two other popular theme parks on the Gold Coast. Heavily discounted '3 Park Super Passes' are available to lure customers into visiting these three parks in their trip to the Gold Coast. The 3 parks are dwarfed by Dreamworld, which has no commercial relation to the other three parks.
