Slated to open by Memorial Day 2019, the exhibition, which has yet to be named, will be home to weedy and leafy seadragons as well as several species of seahorses and pipefish. The centerpiece of the exhibition will be one of the most expansive seadragon habitats in the world. The 18-foot-wide, 9-foot-tall exhibit will hold 5,375 gallons of water, and the habitat is designed to create the ideal environment to breed leafy seadragons, which has never been done in captivity. With an expanded seahorse nursery, hands-on experiences for young learners and a sneak peek into the behind-the-scenes Seadragon Lab, the exhibition will immerse guests into the underwater lives of seahorses and seadragons, while giving them a peek into the work Birch Aquarium’s world-class husbandry team is doing to ensure the species survive into the future. The new seadragon exhibition will be the fourth major exhibition Birch Aquarium has opened in three years and the largest indoor aquarium addition since its grand opening in 1992.

(1/19) 1 SeaWorld San Diego’s new dueling roller coaster, Tidal Twister, will make its debut in May 2019. A first of its kind adventure, this unique ride is an exhilarating experience that demonstrates the power of the ocean. Accelerating to 30 mph, riders will twist and bank as if riding the tide along a tight figure-8 track that includes a dynamic zero-G roll at the center section. Two trains, holding 16 passengers each, load at opposite ends of the figure-8 track and cross in the center with guests facing both forward and backward on the trains. A height requirement of only 48" makes this a perfect ride for younger guests and family members. Also, in 2019, the park is offering a lineup of year-round seasonal events, all connected to a cause that reflects SeaWorld’s Park-to-Planet commitment to help save the ocean and the creatures that live there. (1/19) New Hotels The 128-room Moxy San Diego, the first California hotel under Marriott International’s millennial- minded Moxy Hotels brand, opened in December 2018 in San Diego’s Gaslamp Quarter.

The back of the hotel boasts the first San Diego mural by artist Paul Nandee (SWANK) that beckons visitors with Nandee’s distinctive lettering and character creations constructed with cubist angles. Moxy San Diego rates start at $250 per night. (1/19) Opening in February 2019, The Guild is a 162-room Marriott Tribute Portfolio property housed in the historic landmark, 1920s-era Army-Navy YMCA building in downtown San Diego.

The Guild’s exterior Italian Renaissance-style facade and grand staircase will be left largely untouched, and guests will be welcomed into a redesigned contemporary lobby that includes a full-service bar. Guest rooms will appeal to diverse travelers with everything from cozy, European-inspired accommodations to a two-bedroom penthouse suite with private rooftop deck. A signature restaurant will highlight the city’s indoor/outdoor lifestyle with greenery filled surroundings and a light Mediterranean-inspired menu.

(10/16) 2 Major Events Shorter days and lower tides mean Birch Aquarium at Scripps Institution of Oceanography, UC San Diego is kicking off Tidepooling Adventure season. Occurring now through March 2019, low tides expose hardy creatures that call the intersection of land and sea home. Birch Aquarium naturalists show guests how to tread lightly and discover the captivating world of local tide pools. They meet up with guests at Dike Rock or False Point near the La Jolla coast and look for crabs, seahares, abalone, and even tiny colorful sea slugs. Naturalists teach guests what to look for while searching for octopus’ dens, how to safely look under rocks, and help train eyes to find even the most elusive creatures. Tidepooling Adventure dates vary based on tides. Guests should check the Birch Aquarium website for more information and to purchase tickets. Pre-purchase is required; this family program is for ages 2+, and children under age 15 must be accompanied by a paid adult.
