About Kraken

A roller coaster at SeaWorld? Why not, when the coaster is as superbly conceived and executed as Kraken? This B&M floorless coaster offers a smooth ride, sweeping riders from one thrilling element to the next. Themed to a legendary sea serpent (it *is* SeaWorld...), Kraken delivers a high level of family entertainment that matches or exceeds any of the traditional animal entertainment in the park. -- Robert Niles -- Last edited by Stephen Thickett

Kraken was amazing. It had cool theming near the end, and even the eggs and signs that said "Do not touch eggs; it may anger KRAKEN" were neat. A great ride made amazing with theming. - Tommy Rowbal

Smooth and fast; a great experience. - Mark Moore

i love this ride,fantstic - tyler bell

Kraken was my first looping roller coaster. I was scared to death of it and I had to ride it by myself but after making friends in line with two random ppl we got on and I flipped out. As soon as the floor drops out there is no turning back. The lift hill goes pretty fast and the over all ride is so smooth. When I returned to SeaWorld a few months later my friend and I rode it ten times with the new fast passes that SeaWorld offers. I recommend getting those. - Karen Avella

roller coaster, enthusiasts, do NOT miss this. exceptional. and surprisingly smooth. - liz corso

Cool thing about this amazing coaster is that the lines are always reasonably short. Never more than 30 minutes unless it goes down. When running at max capacity the line moves quickly. Outstanding coaster! - William Clark

This is an excellent coaster that has so many inversions, you eventually begin to wonder which side is up. - Carl Stovall

This ride is, in one word PERFECT! Tall, fast and smooth! It's always the first attraction at Sea World Orlando that I head for! I must say, the best seats for this ride, are in the front row!! 10/10! - Michael Hayford

Fun but, dissapointing. - Nicholas Kalscheuer
