Adventure Island is a seasonal water park situated close to Busch Gardens Tampa Bay.
For the 2024 season, the opening dates are from March to November. Adventure Island is generally open every day from late April to late August, for the rest of the time, it tends to open around the weekends so do check before travelling.
On this page, you will find details and prices for Adventure Island standard one-day tickets, combined multi park tickets, parking, Fun Cards and Quick Queue front-of-line upgrades. Note that Adventure Island does not offer Photo Key upgrades.
Adventure Island sometimes offers a weekday ticket plus special discounts for Florida Residents tickets and annual passes.
As well as park admission tickets you can also purchase cabana rentals and all-day meal deals.
For admission to Adventure Island, children under 3 are admitted for free. There is no difference in price between adult and child (aged 3 and up) tickets.
Note that lockers are available throughout the park to store your belongings.
You can also “load up” a cashless wristband with money so you do not need to carry cash or credit cards around with you.
Adventure Island Special Ticket Offers and Deals
Sometimes Adventure Island offers special deals like discounting the price of a one-day ticket or combined tickets with the nearby Busch Gardens Tampa Bay.
Late in the year they often promote a deal whereby you can buy next year’s Fun Card but start using it immediately so you get something like 15 months of access for the price of 12.
Right now Adventure Island is running their Summer Sale with discounts on one, two, three and four park tickets plus Fun Cards and annual passes:
- Save up to $40 online on single day date specific tickets, with or without the meal deal — offer ends soon
- Save up to 40% online on two park single-day tickets, with or without the meal deal — offer ends soon
- Save 50% online on combined Adventure Island and Busch Gardens two day tickets, with or without the meal deal — offer ends soon
- Save $55 online on three park single-day tickets, with or without the meal deal — offer ends soon
- Save $40 on four park unlimited visit tickets with free parking — offer ends soon
- Save up to 35% on a combined Busch Gardens and Adventure Island Fun Card — offer ends soon
Adventure Island Reservations
At the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, whilst capacity was limited, you could not get into the Adventure Island Tampa Bay park without a specific date reservation, even if you had a multi-day ticket. Therefore you had to make an online reservation for each day you wished to visit.
In July 2021 this reservation restriction at Adventure Island Tampa Bay was lifted though Adventure Island sometimes sells certain date-specific tickets.
Adventure Island All Day Dining and Meal Deals
An All-Day Dining Deal can be purchased as an optional extra either separately or as part of the admission ticket. Sometimes Adventure Island bundle a special complimentary meal deal with their two and three-park tickets.
The all-day-dining deal gives you up to one select entrée, one side item or dessert and one non-alcoholic drink each time through the line at Surfside Café, Mango Joe’s Café or Colossal Snacks. You are allowed a maximum of one visit per 90 minutes and no sharing.
Items on the All-Day Dining Deal are marked with coloured dots.
The complimentary meal deal gives you one select entrée with an accompanying side and a non-alcoholic drink per day.
If you are buying a multi-park ticket with a dining deal or all-day dining then note that there are some restrictions on where you can eat.
The two-park and three-park all-day-dining deals are not valid at Sharks Underwater Grill, Dine with Orcas and the Flamecraft Bar at SeaWorld, Serengeti Overlook™ Restaurant at Busch Gardens or special events like the SeaWorld Seven Seas Festival or the Busch Gardens Food and Wine Festival.
The two-park and three-park meal deals are not valid at Sharks Underwater Grill and Dine with Orcas at SeaWorld, Serengeti Overlook™ Restaurant at Busch Gardens or special events like the SeaWorld Seven Seas Festival or the Busch Gardens Food and Wine Festival.
Adventure Island Quick Queue Front-Of-Line Upgrade
If you want to jump the lines to get on the rides quicker you can buy either a Quick Queue or Quick Queue Unlimited upgrade. To help with social distancing, Adventure Island temporarily paused their Quick Queue upgrades but they are now being sold again.
They have also introduced an all-season Quick Queue pass, which is like the Quick Queue Unlimited pass but valid for the 2024 season.
