Joined May 23, 2003 Messages 8,270 I'm watching Jaws 3 on cable right now,I've seen it before and always thought it was filmed in either Sea World San Diego or possibly San Antonio since the park just doesn't look much like it does now.So I decided to look it up online and the few places that say where it was filmed say in Orlando.If that's true the park looks VERY different from today's Sea world Orlando.Does anybody know for sure where it was filmed?

Joined Aug 23, 2006 Messages 101 According to IMDB, it was filmed at SeaWorld in Orlando as well as Universal-owned property in Orlando (what is now Universal Studios Florida). But it definitely was not filmed at SeaWorld San Antonio. Jaws III was released in 1983, but SeaWorld San Antonio did not open until 1988. DOOM1001

Joined May 23, 2003 Messages 8,270 I've been to Sea World so many times since like the mid 1990's and have seen this movie several times and I always thought it was probably in San Diego,but that park is next to the ocean and you just don't see that in the movie.Right now I'm seeing little things that do tell me it was filmed in SWO like the location of the Bayside Stadium on the lake, some of the building locations,but it's amazing how different the park looks!!

Joined Jan 17, 2007 Messages 72 Yeah it's been really neat to see how Sea World Orlando has changed over the years, especially since Anhueser-Busch bought the parks. It's been 21 yrs for me as a very frequent visitor. If you go to the guest relations office(inside the park) at Sea World Orlando, they have a timeline of different shows and events(via pics/dates) from the parks past to the current times rolling along the walls above the seating area.

Joined Mar 1, 2003 Messages 1,493 If you take the Predators Tour, they will show you one area that was used in the filming where Dennis Quaid identifies a body. There was a sign in the background that has a spelling error and they have left it there, just for posterity. It is at the very end of the tour, in the back part of the Shark Encounter.

Joined Jan 19, 2003 Messages 1,930 While on vacation to SWO in 2005, my parents and I took the Predators tour. While inside the Shark Encounter building, our guide told us that one of the rooms and a sign located near the exit of the building (not the actual attraction exit, but behind the scenes) were used in JAWS III. I've also heard that the film people used Stingray Lagoon for a scene, as well. Nellas Elensar You must log in or register to reply here.Share this page
