Volcano Bay
9.4 Miles
Volcano Bay, is a water park operated by Universal Orlando. The park, themed around a 200-foot-tall (61 m) volcano named “Krakatau,” opened on May 25, 2017.
Krakatau is a 200 feet (61 m) tall artificial volcano, and is the park’s main representative, being displayed on the logo. The volcano houses three drop capsule slides, Ko’okiri Body Plunge, the tallest body slide in America ranging at 125 feet tall, and also the first to travel through a pool full of guests. Krakatau also holds the Kala & Tai Nui Serpentine Body Slides which travel throughout the midst of the volcano winding around the Krakatau Aqua Coaster.
The park uses a wearable under the name TapuTapu for payments and line queues. The wearable is distributed at the entrance at the park, which can be used to hold one’s place in line. TapuTapu allows for payment by linking a credit card through the Universal Orlando app to the wearable, allowing users to pay throughout the park for merchandise, food, and drinks. The wristbands can be used to interact with environmental features, set off water springs, or illuminate lights.
