About Adventure Island

This is the number one theme park in the Southeast of England, a great place for anyone at any age, especially children and tiny tots, for Adventure Island offers fun for all the family.

There are over 40 rides, even the names are thrilling, filling you with anticipation of the excitement to come. There is the Green Scream Roller Coaster, the Scorpion, the Raging River Log Flume, the Vortex, the Dragons Claw, and these are only a few to tempt you!

For further thrills try the very latest introduction to the park, the 50ft tall tower sky drop and if you really want to spin like a top then don't miss the dizziness of the Spinning Zamba Ramba.

Little ones can enjoy rides especially designed for them, and if you want to take a break then try the themed Jungle Jive Cafe for snacks and refreshments.

Admission to the park is free, anyone can go in - even for a look around. You decide the rides you wish to try and that is all you pay for.

There is an all day super-saver wristband, a tiny tots wrist-band and discounts for group bookings. How's that for value - go there you really will have fun!
