SeaWorld Orlando's Journey to Atlantis is a water coaster, a unique thrill ride, that is part water flume ride and part roller coaster. The attraction begins with the ride vehicles floating in a flume passing by dark ride scenery, special effects, and animatronics. After several scenes the vehicles begin an ascent up two lift hills that leads to the ride's signature six-story drop into the splash down pool far below. It can be wet experience, but in the Florida heat it's usually welcome.
In the second half of the water coaster, the vehicles entering the show building once more to begin a another ascent. This time the ascent ends with the vehicles out of the water and rolling onto a steel roller coaster track. After a quick drop into a diving helix, Journey to Atlantis concludes with a wet finale into another splash pool.
