Antarctica | SeaWorld Yas Island, Abu Dhabi

Antarctica is the opposite pole of the Arctic and the second of our two Polar Ocean realms. With its bracing winds, mountains, and icy shelves it has the most extreme conditions on the planet. This is the land where the penguins reign.

Air temperatures of 1°C and water temperatures of 7°C provide the ideal climate for our 6 species of Subantarctic and Antarctic penguins. A full spectrum zoological lighting system replicates the seasonal changes of the Antarctica at SeaWorld Yas Island, Abu Dhabi and ensures the best welfare conditions for the animals; whether it is during molting season, nesting season or any other day of the year.
