Universal Orlando gets volcanic

Universal Orlando Resort has announced its bringing to life an entirely new water theme park experience for its guests.

According to the official Universal Orlando Resort blog, the addition will join Universal Studios Florida and Universal’s Islands of Adventure as our destination’s third highly-immersive park and will be called Universal’s Volcano Bay.

“This is one of the most exciting projects we have had the opportunity to be part of because Volcano Bay will completely redefine the water park experience for our guests,” writes Mark Woodbury on the blog.

“The park will feel as if it is set in picture-perfect tropical islands, formed by a massive volcano – and it will have something for every member of the family. It will feature radically-innovative attractions, peaceful moments of relaxation and an experience that we hope will change the way guests think about water theme parks.”

The park will open in 2017, with 18 experiences launched across the destination since 2010.

More details on Volcano Bay will be announced at a later date.
