Ocean Discovery (Full Show) - Beluga Whales and Dolphins - SeaWorld San Antonio - March 3, 2023

Ocean Discovery, the park's beluga and dolphin show, is known to change just about every year. For 2023, there's a segment with the belugas at the glass very similar to the 2022 Christmas show and how this show was when SeaWorld first reopened after COVID. See below for highlights!
