Ranking All The Rides At Universal's Islands Of Adventure: Worst To Best

13. Poseidon’s Fury

Poseidons Fury
What Culture

After becoming trapped in Poseidon's Temple you and your tour guide must find a way out without feeling the wrath of Lord Darkenon.

Although this attraction could technically classed as a show, you are moving and not sitting passively watching. Poseidon's Fury is cheesy and at times feels dated but that doesn't mean that it's a bad attraction. The special effects are great, making use of both fire and water. Some areas are very dark, especially the initial queue area. If you are uncomfortable in dark places you might find this a struggle.

The attraction is dark and you are stood for a long time, both waiting for the show to start and throughout the entire attraction. On the plus side, you are inside the entire time so it's the perfect place to get out of the hot sun. The air conditioning in here is amazing and the attraction lasts a good 10 minutes so you get some much needed break from the heat.

Give this one a go at least once, especially if one of those famous Florida downpours is looking likely.
