Not only on a wall.

A small tile on the nightstand catching the morning. A larger one above the fire. Yours, wherever you spend the slow hours.

— a note from the studio

“A 200-acre marine park built around a central lagoon, opened the year Walt Disney World was still finding its feet. The perimeter rides (Mako, Manta, Kraken, Pipeline) wrap the original core of the park: the orca, dolphin, and sea-lion habitats and the long shaded paths between them. Florida sun, salt air, the slow walk between shows.

SeaWorld Orlando, on ceramic.

Each tile is finished by hand in our Knoxville studio. Artwork is slowly infused into the ceramic surface under high heat and pressure, and rests beneath a thin glossy finish. The colour lives in the surface, not on top of it.

— about SeaWorld Orlando

The place, in three passes.

A little of what's known, in case you fall down the rabbit hole — or want to go see it yourself.

— the place

SeaWorld Orlando sits on roughly 200 acres at the corner of Sea Harbor Drive and Central Florida Parkway, off Interstate 4 between downtown Orlando and the Walt Disney World property. Owned and operated by United Parks and Resorts, the park opened on 15 December 1973 as the second SeaWorld after the original San Diego location. The site centres on a 17-acre saltwater lagoon and houses marine mammals, aquariums, several thrill coasters, and the adjacent Discovery Cove and Aquatica properties under the same ownership.

— the water

The central lagoon holds roughly seventeen acres of filtered saltwater and serves as the visual spine of the park, with the older Shamu Stadium on its north shore and the newer Bayside Stadium across the water. The park's aquatic habitats together hold an estimated seven million gallons. Bird life around the lagoon is genuine: cattle egrets, anhingas, and occasional roseate spoonbills move between the show tanks, drawn in from the Tibet-Butler wetlands a few miles southeast.

— the visit

The park opens at 9 a.m. most days and closes between 6 and 10 p.m. depending on season; the official site posts a calendar two months ahead. Single-day tickets run on dynamic pricing, with multi-park and annual passes available bundled with Aquatica and Discovery Cove. Parking is on the Central Florida Parkway side. The newest coasters, Pipeline (2023) and Penguin Trek (2024), draw the longest morning lines; the orca and dolphin presentations rotate through the afternoon.

What people ask.

A few questions we get about SeaWorld Orlando — and about bringing the piece home.

— about the place

The park opened on 15 December 1973, the second SeaWorld location after the original 1964 park in San Diego. It has been owned by United Parks and Resorts, formerly SeaWorld Entertainment, since 2009.

The park sits at 7007 Sea Harbor Drive in Orlando, Florida, off Interstate 4 between downtown Orlando and the Walt Disney World property. The Orange County Convention Center is roughly a mile north.

The park occupies roughly 200 acres centred on a 17-acre saltwater lagoon. The adjacent Discovery Cove and Aquatica water parks, both under the same ownership, add a further 150 acres to the combined property.

The current lineup includes Mako, Manta, Kraken, Ice Breaker, Pipeline (opened 2023), Penguin Trek (2024), and the family coaster Super Grover's Box Car Derby in the Sesame Street land.

Yes. The park houses several orcas in the Orca Encounter habitat on the north side of the lagoon. SeaWorld ended its theatrical orca shows in 2019 in favour of an educational-format presentation.

— about the piece in your home

It carries well for anyone with childhood Florida memories, for annual passholders, and for families marking a first park visit. The lagoon-and-coasters silhouette reads to anyone who has walked the loop. A Small or Medium ships easily.

The teals and Florida-sky blues sit well in coastal-modern interiors, kids' rooms, and family rooms already leaning into ocean blues. It also holds its own in a Florida room with rattan and woven textures.

Place-based theme-park art has built a steady collector base since the late 2010s, especially pieces tied to a single park rather than a corporate logo. The work reads as Florida coastal art as much as park art.

Above a sofa, a single Large or a 4-tile Mural carries the wall. Above a console table, a Medium reads cleanly. For a playroom or den, a 9-tile Mural shows the lagoon scale at full reach.

Yes, in either the Dura Satin or Matte finish. Both are scratch-resistant and humidity-tolerant, suited to pool-house walls, beach-house bathrooms, and covered patios. The Glossy finish is reserved for framed dry-room pieces.
