ISLANDS OF ADVENTURE VOLCANO BAY
KEEN FOR MORE ? NEXT STOP …
Islands of Adventure :
If you are an adventure seeker , this is the place for you ! Superheroes , magical creatures , and a dinosaur too , the rides here will do everything from making your head spin to making you soaked and we are here for it !
The Wizarding World of Harry Potter™ magic continues at Islands of Adventure , this time with a Hogsmeade™ spin . First on your list HAS to be Hagrid ' s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure™ .
Quite simply , it is incredible !
Join Hagrid™ on his motorbike and sidecar and prepare for a thrilling ground-breaking roller coaster ride beyond the grounds of Hogwarts™ with the wind in your hair and the magic in your face ! Our top tip is to head here first , queue early ( it ’ s not part of Express Pass ) and , if like us , you have a little-y too short to ride , take full advantage of ‘ rider switch ’ which allows one adult to wait in the waiting room ( Harry Potter on repeat on the TVs !) while the rest of your group ride , and then simply switch adults so the other kids can ride again with the switchee - blimmin ’ marvellous !
Keeping the Potter-obsessed eight-year-old Lyla happy , our next stop was Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey™ another state-of-the-art immersive thrill ride where you ’ ll soar above the caste grounds with Harry Potter™ and his friends on a thrilling adventure . Keen not to miss out on the action , Jaxon rejoined us for our last Wizarding adventure ride , Flight of the Hippogriff™ , which he Express Pass-ed three goes on the bounce such was his love for riding the coaster through Hagrid ’ s pumpkin patch !
As if that was enough of a thrill , our next stop was to Jurassic Park ! Yes the dino-loving nutjob was in his element again as he played in the dino-themed playground as his sisters and I headed straight for the incredible Jurassic World VelociCoaster ! It was hands down our top thrill coaster ride - ever , unsurprising as it lays claim to being Florida ’ s fastest and tallest roller coaster ! And if you ’ re keen for some more family dino action head for Jurassic Park River Adventure , one minute you ' re gliding in your raft , the next you ’ re face to face with T . Rex !
But that ’ s not all you ’ ll find here . Head to the crazy world of Dr . Seuss for the bonkers Caro- Seuss-el™ and The High in the Sky Seuss Trolley Train Ride ! ™ as well as the chance to meet The Grinch ! Blast into action in 3D style on The Amazing Adventures of Spider-Man ® , and unleash your inner Hulk on The Incredible Hulk Coaster ® - definitely not one for the fainthearted as you ’ ll launch up to 67 mph and face a zero-gravity roll !
Food wise , Islands of Adventure is proudly home to an award-winning , full-service restaurant too ! We highly recommend booking a table at Mythos where modern Mediterranean , Asian and American cuisine is served in a mythical family-friendly setting .
READY TO MAKE WAVES ? IT ’ S TIME FOR …
Volcano Bay
Think theme park , with a whole lotta water ! It ’ s less water park , more action in the water , complete with its own real volcano , naturally ! There ’ s waterslides , lazy rivers , a wave pool , oh , and the Krakatau Aqua Coaster . And the best bit ? At Volcano Bay you can use your TapuTapu™ - a waterproof wearable specifically designed for the park - to hold your place in the Virtual Line™ for one attraction at a time . So you can go float , swim , splash , eat , shop or relax around the park before it ’ s your time to ride .
