About Universal Volcano Bay

Volcano Bay is Universal Orlando Resort's water park, built around Krakatau, a 200-foot volcano at the center of the park. It opened in 2017 with four areas inspired by Polynesian islands and cultures: The Volcano, Wave Village, River Village and Rainforest Village. You can ride the Krakatau Aqua Coaster, drop down the Ko'okiri Body Plunge, float the Kopiko Wai Winding River or stay on the sand at Waturi Beach, the main wave pool.
