Sea Dragon was a Pirate Ship built by US manufacturer Chance Rides previously located at Pacific Park in Santa Monica, California, USA.

History

Sea Dragon opened with the park on May 26, 1996. It last operated in 2023 or earlier, after giving over 12 million rides.

After the ride's closure, its vehicle was placed on display on the pier in March 2023. Afterward it was airlifted by helicopter from the park to the Port of Hueneme, then was put on a flatbed truck and shipped to City Museum in St. Louis, Missouri, USA. As of May 2023, the museum had not yet decided what to do with the ride.

Sea Dragon was replaced with Sea Dragon, a newer version of the ride.[1]
