Texas Hurricane Harbor is the one place in North Texas that is guaranteed to cool down even the most hot-blooded critter. Especially when the sun is beating down unmercifully and the humidity in the air is practically unbearable, then you know Hurricane Harbor can help. The best part of the Park, of course, is the rides. Nothing could be more refreshing after a long hot day than relaxing on an inner tube in the cool, clear water. There are water rides for every family member from preschoolers to teens & adults. Children can play safely in Hooks Lagoon that features a tree house, Hook’s ship and Hook’s slide. Action packed thrill rides include the Atlantic Panic, Hydro Mania and Shotgun Falls. Family rides provide the chance for parents and children to have fun together include the Sun and Surf Lagoons, Bubba Beach and the Lazy River. Lazy River For those who prefer kicking back in their inner tube, floating casually down a slowly winding river, the Lazy River ride is just what they need. It is the perfect ride for those who just want to slow down and take it easy. Tubes float down this river at about three miles per hour. Slow enough to enjoy, but fast enough to stay cool. Wave Pool The one million gallon Wave Pool, which sits right in the center of the park, features shooting geysers, spraying fountains and rolling waves that provide cool water fun for visitors of all ages. The Wave Pool is also equipped with a sand-like beach for sunbathing, relaxing, or simply wading and splashing around in the water with the little ones. 
Just for KidsHook's Lagoon Treehouse is perfect for the younger ones who just want to play and run around. This attraction has everything from rope ladders to climb and slides to zoom down, to water canons for waging war. Moreover, just to make sure everyone eventually gets soaked, there is a 1,000-gallon water bucket, located at the top of the Treehouse, just waiting to tip over unexpectedly. Some rides, including Hook’s Slide, keep guests safe. Children need to be 42 inches tall to ride Hook’s Slide. Water Slides The many water slides are the park's main attractions, and they have made Texas Hurricane Harbor so famous. The Sea Wolf takes the rider, seated in a toboggan, down 830 feet of slide while banking and turning uncontrollably. Then, you might choose to go on to a more intense ride like Shotgun Falls, where the rider is blasted straight out of a barrel-shaped slide by 2000 gallons of water! Are you afraid of the dark? Then DON'T head towards The Black Hole! If you do, you'll find yourself shooting blindly through a long black tentacle-like tube into the unknown water ahead. Do you like surprises? The Geronimo starts the rider off slow and easy then suddenly drops them straight down nearly six stories, free-fall style. You won't know when to expect it...and it will take your breath away when the steep slope catches you by surprise!
