BUT, I enjoy watching my family enjoy them! There is a huge area for the little ones. Lots of rides like cars, monster trucks , blimps, etc and all of these are low on the thrill but high on the fun. My wife loves the roller coasters and they apparently have some good ones. The 5D movie theater is fun too. It's indoors, has moving chairs and effects like wind and vibrations. It was well received by all our kids. In the summer The water park is super awesome and huge. There are a hand full of places to eat and for the most part they are all the same quality - amusement park food and prices. Great place to spend time with your family or friends.

Not nearly as crowded which makes it more family friendly. The waves aren't as large as the and intense as the "big surf" attraction which was the original and the more popular wave pool. However, this is still fun and you do get some nice and fun wave action. Overall cool and relaxing water attraction at Kentucky kingdom. More of just a place to actually swim like a public pool as it has more room and isn't as crowded as other water wave pools at hurricane bay

Big Surf is a massive water/wave park attraction located in hurricane bay of Kentucky kingdom in…read moreLouisville, Kentucky. Big Surf is a very popular attraction and was actually the original Hurricane bay attraction. When it first was added to Kentucky kingdom it was the only water attention so it was actually just called "hurricane bay". As that portion expanded and continued to grow it took on the moniker of Big Surf. It is a 750,000 gallon wave pull that gets up to 6 fr waves. If you go to the deeper end it can get pretty intense and I'd reccomended being a competent swimmer. Very fun but I really wish they would limit the amount of people and eliminate the inner tubes here. I always get super frustrated because it gets so crowded and your always bumping into people and tubes. I went here as a kid and loved it but as a parent it gives me anxiety. They usually have 2-3 lifeguards on site around the wave pool but it is so crowded and the big waves throw people around that it can be dangerous for little ones. I'd really oblige by the 48 Inches to be alone rule here and even then if someone isn't a strong swimmer I'd recommend some type of flotation device. Overall this is a super fun wave park. Probably the best one I have ever been in. It stimulates a big ocean wave as good as the real thing.

Smallish but creative area that's basically a very creative splash pad for the toddlers who may not be able to swim or aren't quite ready for the action in the other nearby water adventures in the park. Over the years I've taken my little ones here a few times and usually the giant swan draws them in. They will run around and play for a bit and have a good time. Overall, very nice addition to the water attractions in the theme park and helps include all ages and sizes in the fun times at the park.

Deep water Dive is an intense, nerve racking and very fun body slide ride at the hurricane bay…read moreportion of Kentucky Kingdom in Louisville, Kentucky. This massive body slide is one of the worlds largest and is 12 stories tall and features a 377 foot drop with 121 feet of it coming at a 70 degree angle. I've rode this body slide multiple times and each time it doesn't get any less nerve inducing. First off you climb an insane amount of steps. For those who count steps you will get them by riding this ride. At the top you have a platform that offers beautiful views of the city and park. However on some days with a slight wind you will sway back and forth which adds to the thrill and unsettling feeling. The workers put you in a plastic tube casing and you stand up against a backboard with your arms and feet crossed. Below your feet's is a clear see through floor that will momentarily be removed from underneath you. As stated the first half of this slide is practically straight down. So if you fear heights do not look down. The machine has a 3...2...1 countdown but that isn't what triggers the floor being opened. The operators hit a button so there is no timing and bracing yourself for the fall. Some workers have some fun with it and drop you at different parts or pretend it's stuck and then let you fall. They of course still make sure you are in there properly and safe. The drop itself will literally take your breath away. Most of the time by time I can recollect my thoughts or breath I'm on the backstretch at high speeds and water is splashing me in the face. I personally love this ride. The epitome of a thrill ride. As stated Above. If you or your little ones do not do heights or scare easy then this isn't for you. It's no fun climbing the steps and I can imagine it wouldn't be fun climbing back down if you get up there and decide against it (happens a lot). The ride itself does have a min height requirement of 48 inches and max weight of 300lbs. It is a single rider so you are by yourself. The first time I took my kids alone I was stuck with "do I go first and hope they don't chicken out or do I go second and hope they don't freak out at the bottom or wander off". So just some things to consider before riding. Overall 5 star experience for me. Fun, thrilling and my absolute favorite water park attraction in the hurricane bay section. If they got me an elevator lift to the top id be more inclined to ride it back to back to back.

T3 also known as Terror to the Third Power is a suspended looping coaster at Kentucky Kingdom and…read moreHurricane Bay. It was originally built in 1995 that has top speeds of 49 mph and reaches heights of 101 ft. The track length is 2,172 ft. Height requirements are min of 52 inches and max of 79 inches. Growing up in Louisville Kentucky kingdom was a big part of my childhood. I had season passes as early as I can remember and T3 being built 1995 I was around 11 years old when this ride debuted. I can remember being really excited for it when it came out. A roller coaster that does flips and your feet dangle? I was sold from day one. Overall it was a fun ride then and a fun ride now. Has solid speed, fun loops and brings some nostalgic feelings to me personally. I'm really glad that when Kentucky kingdom reopened after being shut down that they kept this ride here.

Why is T3 getting such a high rating well there is a really good reason for it which I'll explain…read morewhy because it totally deserves it! T3 is more or less known as a Vekoma SLC pretty much the most hated coaster amongst coaster enthusiasts as it's known for bashing your head back and forth between the restraints leaving you with a splitting headache but that's not the case here! This Vekoma SLC has over the shoulder straps connected to a lap bar so it takes away from that head bashing that we all love soo much that element alone is something I haven't found on any other Vekoma SLC in the United States! T3 has a super fun layout and it's a good coaster for the type that it is with just the restraints alone it's definitely in my opinion the best SLC out there as it has gotten rid of the head pain! Overall i don't think I've said this before about this type of coaster but I'll definitely look forward to my next ride on T3 because it's just that awesome!
