Top Amusement Parks & Rides in Tampa

I suggest bringing your own snacks or lunch. The food inside is pricey, and I found some great shaded spots to munch on my sandwiches.

I recommend getting to the park right before it opens at 10 AM. The first hour is great for hitting popular rides like SheiKra without long waits!

I think it's worth buying the quick queue pass if you're planning on hitting a lot of rides—it saved me so much time! Just don’t buy it last min, I learned that the hard way.

Do NOT underestimate the heat! I thought I'd be fine, but the sun can be brutal. Bring a refillable water bottle and fill it at the many stations around the park.

If you’re looking to save some bucks, check for online discounts before you go. I found a great deal on tickets that made the day a lot more enjoyable.

i think if you can, get there around 10 am right when it opens... the lines are way shorter, and you can hit up the rides without waiting forever

I recommend downloading the park's app. It has wait times and ride info, which helped us plan our day much better. Trust me, it beats wandering around aimlessly!

Make sure to hydrate and wear sunscreen! It got super hot out there, especially around midday. I saw a lot of people regretting not doing this

I recommend arriving right at 10 AM when they open. The lines get super long by noon, so getting there early lets you hit the big rides before the crowds roll in.

I think you should grab lunch around 2 PM. It’s not as crowded and you can snag a decent table without the rush. Plus the food is pretty tasty much better than I expected!

My advice is to look for combo tickets online! I saved some cash by bundling SheiKra with other attractions in the area. Definitely worth it!
