A hassle, yes, but they do a pretty good job with the setup. Parking is in a parking structure and then you will have to take a bus to get to Volcano Bay. Don’t follow your map on your phone – darn Google Maps! You will have to make a turn so drive slow and look for the signs. Then once you turn onto the street you will see signs for where to go for Volcano Bay. Instead when you get close, look for the signs and follow those for Volcano Bay or Cabana Bay (the hotel attached to Volcano Bay). If you follow this in Google Maps it will take you to the wrong place. Yup, we started the day arguing since we tried to follow the directions on our phone instead of following the signs. You wouldn’t believe you are right smack in the middle of a city. We weren’t disappointed! This water theme park gives you an overall vacation vibe with the scenery and all the sand. We love Universal Orlando Resort so we figured the new Volcano Bay had to be amazing. Then we will jump into all the coolness and some tricks we learned from spending the day there with 4 kids, one who doesn’t like scary rides, two that are up for almost anything and one that was only 5, so wasn’t sure about the bigger rides. Things like how to get there, can you bring food, where do we put our stuff when we are on the rides, when should we go and what is this watch all about? There were a few things that gave us problems when we headed to Universal Volcano Bay in Orlando, Florida with our 4 kids that we want to highlight right away so you can avoid them and enjoy your time at Volcano Bay.
