Where Can You Find SeaQuest Ft. Worth?
SeaQuest Ft. Worth has its home inside the Ridgmar Mall just west of downtown Ft. Worth. Fort Worth is now the 13th-largest city in the United States. The city exudes Texas hospitality and is known for their western Stockyards. Downtown Ft. Worth is one of the top-rated downtown areas in the US with a bustling entertainment and cultural district, the Ft. Worth Botanic Garden and the Fort Worth Zoo. The heart of downtown sits at the cross section of Interstates 35 and 30 and Ft. Worth located just 18 miles from DFW International Airport.
Ft. Worth is a city that calls the great state of Texas home. Explorers and settlers came to reside in Texas between the 16th and 18th centuries and officially became a state in 1845. The state capital, Austin, is 180 miles south of Ft. Worth, and Dallas is a quick jaunt east, just 30 miles away. Dallas is home to a number of fun entertainment attractions including the Dallas Arboretum, the Texas Horse Park and the George W Bush Museum and Presidential Library.

“We love SeaQuest! They’ve got so many animal “encounters”… Most of their animals have some kind of interaction. You can buy food to feed most of the animals as well. My kids love it and so do I. We usually spend four hours here but you can easily spend all day. And it’s a great educational experience!! Their employees are soooo friendly and always full of information! You can also host birthday parties and stuff here and you can even have a “mermaid” experience!! Highly recommend!
