Universal Orlando Resort opened up its third park Volcano Bay back in spring of 2017. This state of the art water theme park takes you right into the heart of the Polynesian islands.

Taking inspiration from many cultures around Polynesia, there's some mythical elements that make up the park. Volcano Bay aims to take you far away from the hustle and bustle of Orlando into your own watery paradise.
