Manta, Steel roller coaster at SeaWorld San Diego, United States.
The Manta roller coaster features two launch sequences, reaching speeds of 43 miles per hour across its 2,800-foot track with underground sections.
SeaWorld San Diego unveiled this $10 million marine-themed attraction on May 26, 2012, following extensive planning and construction that began in early 2011.
The ride combines thrilling elements with educational components about marine life, featuring a queue area with information about manta rays and their ecosystems.
