Sea World is one of the most popular destinations for family vacations. Expect sun, sea and a lot of fun. Do not forget your wallet, because you're going to need that too. The following tips may help you stay on your vacation budget while having fantastic time.
Search the Internet for promotional codes you can use to buy discount tickets, hotel stays or packages that include both. If you plan to go to other theme parks during your trip, search for packages that include tickets to all parks.
Travel off-season when possible. This doesn't mean going to Florida during hurricane season. Look to arrive a few days before peak season, and you may save a substantial amount on hotel rates.
Check your hotel lobby and local area Welcome Center for Sea World coupon books. These help a savvy traveler stay on budget.
Park at Sea World. You do have to pay to park, but if you bring an ice chest loaded with sandwiches and drinks, you save big bucks. You can also restock your backpack with snacks when you go back into the park.
Buy a drink cup that is refillable at a discount. You will be at Sea World all day, and this small investment will pay for itself in just a couple of refills.
Bring a change of clothes for the family or a plastic poncho for keeping dry at the water shows. It beats buying new clothing and saves you from that icky semi-dry feeling.
