Shamu Express is a steel roller coaster at SeaWorld San Antonio and SeaWorld Orlando in the Shamu's Happy Harbor section of the park, a kid-oriented section. The trains are designed in line with the park's signature mascot, Shamu the killer whale.[1][2]

The Orlando version closed on April 8, 2018, pending the re-theme of Shamu's Happy Harbor to a Sesame Street themed area.[3]
