Accessibility: Wheelchair accessible exhibit to see the penguins, but VERY DARK INSIDE IN SUMMER, SO I DO NOT RECOMMEND COMING IN SUMMER. Experience: in summertime here in San Diego, Sea World has the penguin exhibit EXTREMELY dark inside, to copy the real experience they would have in the wild. You can't see anything, so I recommend coming to Sea World in other seasons if you want to see penguins. Still very educational, though! There is also a penguin-specific gift shop inside the penguin building.

The Penguin exhibit is awesome to see. It was a bit packed but I was still able to get a nice view of the penguins.

Penguins and their brief introduction shared in an incredibly communicative manner.

Experience Depends on when you go, in the warmer months, the penguin exhibit will be darker, you will not be allowed to take pictures. In the colder months it will be brighter, and you will be able to see the penguins, they also...
