The story
Electric Eel is a steel launched roller coaster at SeaWorld in San Diego, California. The coaster opened in 2018 as the park's then-tallest and fastest, until the opening of Emperor in 2022. The ride is loosely themed around the electric eel (Electrophorus electricus). An educational area and informational exhibit on electric eels can also be found by the attraction and near the queue.
