About Universal's Volcano Bay:

  • Volcano Bay wanted to have the reputation of a water park with "thrill rides".
  • There are 18 unique attractions all around the waterpark, and many of them are very daring.
  • The Ko'okiri Body Plunge is a seven degree fall through a trapdoor. You go 125 ft. down into a pool. You step into a tube, standing at a 70 degree angle as the door closes and the music gets louder and louder. The floor will drop out from under you and you will zoom down the volcano.
  • If you aren't feeling that daring, there are also raft rides that you can do. Maku Puihi offers four to six person raft options as you ride to the bottom.
