Seven Seas Marine Life Park, Marine life amusement park in Arlington, United States
Seven Seas Marine Life Park was an amusement park in Arlington that featured multiple exhibits housing marine animals, several performance stadiums, and different themed sections for visitors to explore. The grounds were organized to display various species and their habitats across different areas of the property.
The park opened in 1972 as a city-owned facility and served visitors with marine animal exhibits during its early years. Operations ceased within a few years, and the site was later repurposed under a different name.
The park's killer whale Newtka and three bottlenose dolphins performed daily shows in the Mediterranean Sea Stadium, drawing thousands of spectators each season.
The site was accessible to visitors in Arlington and offered multiple areas to explore and observe animals at different locations. Visitors should plan to spend time moving between different shows and exhibits throughout the grounds.
During construction in the early 1970s, workers discovered fossilized marine remains on the site that were millions of years old. This geological find connected the park's marine theme directly to the site's prehistoric past.
