This is the place to get wet. Plunge down the 90-foot Cliffhanger, one of the world's tallest free-fall water slides, or funnel through the 735-foot-long Run-a-Way River, a vicious four-person tunnel raft ride. If that's not enough, try the Bermuda Triangle, Gulf Coast Screamer or Banzai Pipeline. The Tornado is a giant funnel-shaped water slide. Younger parkgoers can splash around in Little Squirt's Island and Captain Kid's Cove, or just float down one of two lazy rivers. Everybody loves the wave pool, which features glitzy Vegas-style entertainment and "Dive-In Movies" on Friday nights. Source: citysearch.com |
