Mako, Steel roller coaster at SeaWorld Orlando, Florida, United States.

Mako is a steel roller coaster at SeaWorld Orlando in Florida that reaches speeds around 73 miles per hour (117 kilometers per hour) along a track spanning roughly 4760 feet (1450 meters) and climbing to a maximum height of 200 feet (61 meters). The layout follows a hypercoaster design and combines steep drops with low hills close to the ground.

SeaWorld announced Mako on May 27, 2015, and track pieces began shipping from B&M's Ohio plant that August; the lift hill was topped off on January 6, 2016. The ride opened on June 10, 2016, after a soft opening on June 2, as the tallest, fastest and longest coaster in Orlando, not Florida-wide.

The 2-acre Shark Wreck Reef area around the ride displays recycled art, a mural by Guy Harvey and panels on human-shark interactions, and the queue holds further Guy Harvey exhibits. A 32-minute score by Rick McKee plays in the queue, station and plaza, and a panel above the train shows shadowy sharks before dispatch.

Each train features seven cars with a total of 28 seats secured by lap bars. Visitors should store loose items in lockers since the ride includes several moments with negative acceleration.

Roughly one third of the track runs over water features and delivers nine moments of weightlessness during the ride. The name refers to the shortfin mako shark, which can reach similar bursts of speed in the open ocean.
