It is not a lazy river at all this is an adventure river like it says. It was a lot of fun and one of my favorite things at the park

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.

I went to Kentucky Kingdom's Halloween themed days and it was such a fun time! My favorite…read moredecoration was the light up tunnel with designs in the lights. It was so cool and unique. The big pumpkin displays were so cute and fun!! I loved getting to see them in the day and at night. The cat was my favorite and I do wish there was cute cat merch instead of just spider merch. The fall food was fun! I recommend trying (and for the park to bring back next year) the maple ice cream and the pumpkin spice pretzel. Both were so good! The rides were fun. Even as an adult the rides that were more for kids were fun too! I'm disappointed that the car ride shut the line down before the park cloed but I'll have to chatch it next time.

Solid family wave pool located in the hurricane bay portion of Kentucky kingdom in Louisville ky…read more This is the smaller and less crowded wave pool in the park. 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.

Buccaneer beach is a toddler play and swim area located in the hurricane bay portion Kentucky…read morekingdom and hurricane bay theme park in Lousiville, Kentucky. 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.
