Attractions
Shark Tooth Cove |
This kids’ zone features a bigger pool, more slides, and 360° seating to watch your little ones. Maximum height restriction to 52” tall. |

Trade in fast rides for a relaxing float in Turtle Creek. This lazy river is a half-mile, slow-moving stream that lets you take a break from the action and enjoy a beautiful summer day. |
Force 3 |
The Force 3 gives you triple the slide action! This ride stands 32-feet tall and features three slides to keep the fun going all day long. Guests must be 48” tall to ride. |
Pirate’s Passage |
Take the plunge! Pirate’s Passage riders hop on a double-seater inner-tube and slide down a five-story enclosed tower. It’s fast. It’s furious. It’s fun. Guests must be 48” tall to ride. |
Frantic Atlantic Wave Pool |
Catch a ride on these waves! The Frantic Atlantic pool is more than 500,000 gallons of water, and waves reach heights of more than two feet, making it the coolest pool around. |
Nature’s Revenge |
Nature’s Revenge stands 40 feet tall, and boasts two fierce slides: The Hurricane and The Tornado. Each slide twists and turns, sending riders into a spiral before dropping them off with a splash in the catch pool. Guests must be 42” tall to ride. |
