This ship swings back and forth almost to the point where you think you're gonna go upside down. It definitely makes your tummy do flip-flops!
9.)Rookie Racer- Must be 36". Guests are in the driver’s seat as the Formula 1-designed coaster cars careen along the steel track. This rookie circuit is made up of a series of maneuvers including winding curves, drops, and a horizontal loop that is perfect for thrill seekers of all ages. Another mild coaster that younger kids will be able to ride and enjoy.
10.)River King Mine Train- Must be 42" with an adult. This was the first roller coaster built in this park, and the end is really fun! It's really like a baby roller coaster.
11.)Pandemonium- Must be 42" with an adult. 4 people sit in a car that spins 360 degrees around and around the track. It's intense!
12.)Screamin' Eagle- Must be 42" with an adult. This is a huge roller coaster that has 10-story drops and goes 62 miles an hour.
13.) Sky Screamer- Must be 44" with adult. Very tall swing and the breeze and views are fabulous!
Lastly, we have the water park, Hurricane Harbor. Entrance is included with your admission to Six Flags. There are several different areas, but the most popular one for the littles is called Adventure Cove. It's a huge interactive play area that includes a pirate ship and a large play structure with 4 different slides that range in height. Only kids under 54" can play here. Max 48" on the pirate slides, and min 42" for the bigger slides.
The old "Hooks Lagoon" structure was replaced in 2021 with the one above. There are 71 different manipulatives that kids can play with on the new structure.
There is sand here for the kids to play with and a little shower where they can wash it off. They offer free life vests for everyone to use while they are here.
Gulley Washer Creek is the lazy river. An inner tube is required and they'll hand you one when you are next in line.
Hurricane Bay is the wave pool. You can recognize it because of the 'volcano'.
They clear the pool out for 10 minutes every hour for a safety check at the wave pool. Small kids should definitely wear a life vest or puddle jumper in here. It gets pretty deep and the waves are strong. The water here is warmer than in the kiddie area so my kids like swimming here. The waves start out strong and you are signaled that they're starting by a loud buzzer. They get weaker as time goes on and then they start over again.
Big Kahuna is a 5 story raft ride. Must be 42" or taller and a raft is provided.
Wahoo Racer is a 6-lane triple drop slide. Must be 42" with an adult. It's 262 ft long and you go 35 miles an hour!
So that's everything that little kids can do here. It's enough to last all day. My daughter turned 4 in May and was able to do all these things with me this summer. We had a blast!
