General Help

When visiting a park:

 

- Always get there early

- Ride the most popular / lowest capacity rides first

- If the park give you anything (food to fee dolphins, etc) you are gonna pay for it

- Boomerangs are never worth it, but we ride them for the credits anyway (same goes for the SLCs)

 

Also, A subject line of "SFMW" doesn't do much to describe the thread. There are a lot of threads involving Six Flags Marine World. Try to snaz it up a little bit like:

 

"Questions about SFMW for a first visit"

"Planning my first trip to SFMW ... Need help"

Becuase it's a Saturday, it will probably be crowded...and the parking lot is either a tram ride or a long hike from the gate. There's also a pretty inefficient security check before you hit the gate, and if you don't have tickets, that's another wait. So if you want to be one of the first into the park, get to the parking lot no later than 9:15. I never go on Saturdays, but on weekdays, real crowds don't start showing up till after 9:30.

 

Where to go first depends on something you don't know...is Roar running just one train? If you want the front row on Medusa, head there first, but SFMW is notorious for delaying opening of it till 15-20 minutes past the opening of the park. Otherwise, Roar can build up lines pretty quick or it can be an early walk-on, but it's conveniently right next to V2...if that's running.

 

Kong builds up very long lines, but it's just another crappy SLC.

 

Boomerang is "worth it" if you grew up in the Gobi Desert and haven't yet had a chance to ride one. Otherwise, it's The Usual.

 

Haven't been since they opened the interactive dolphin stuff. I believe it costs a few bucks to feed the dolphins but you can pet them for free. It's also fun to feed the giraffes. ($2, I think.)
