News Adventure Island Project 2024/Ohana: Castaway Falls (Water Play Area)

[Python_Survivor]

New Permits filed with the Southwest Florida Water Management District suggest the removal of the Splash Attack water play area. The plans call for "removal of 14,329 s.f. of existing concrete walkways/impervious area and the construction of approximately 16,435 s.f. of new concrete walkways/impervious area. The project will result in a 2,106 s.f. increase in impervious area."

See the attached PDF file for the permits filed with the SWFWMD.

Hearing this will be similar to Ray Rush at Aquatica. Similar Footprint too

Awesome! I love Ray Rush. I hope Water Country USA gets something like that.

So like a Family Water Coaster (I.E. ProSlide MammothBlast?)

Anyone else miss Everglides? I know Aqua Chutes aren't popular anymore, but a drop slide like Ohyah and Ohno at Volcano would add that extra dimension back. Ray Rush is needed but an Aqua Coaster would stamp this park as a destination. Hope they share that particular sentiment.

I believe so, yes

 

[Tacky3663]

I believe so, yes

They haven’t built any MammothBlasts in North America yet, so if this is ProSlide doing this. It’ll be a first of its kind over here

Whatever it is HAS to be hydromagnetic. Tampa Typhoon was a pain-ridden, albeit extreme concept they attempted to provide us. Busch's water park deserves LIMs. Hydromagnetic Mammoth ?

 

[Tacky3663]

Has there been any update regarding this?

 

[Akbar97]

I'm hoping we see something major in 25, to accompany BGTs possible major attraction.

Splash Attack is now completely dirt

The new water play area has now opened. It looks nice.

Is this the same structure that they put in at Aquatica San Antonio? It looks very similar.
