Adventure Island, attractions in Temple Crest, Tampa

Adventure Island packs slides for every nerve level, from the drop-floor Vanish Point and dueling Rapids Racer to a lazy river, wave pool, and splash zones for little kids. It's seasonal — generally open spring through fall, weekends only in shoulder months — so check the calendar before you go. Multi-park tickets bundle it with Busch Gardens for a cheap add-on day.
