Tips & Advice
- Book tickets in advance online to guarantee entry and potentially save money, especially as they can reach capacity.
- Check the specific age recommendations for each attraction (Nightmare Island is 16+, Spooky Island for teens, Trick or Trail for under 10s) to ensure suitability for your group.
- Consider the weather and water temperature; wetsuits are advised but not compulsory for water activities, and you can hire them on-site.
- If visiting for the Drive-In Cinema, arrive early to secure a good spot and be aware that food is delivered directly to your car.
- While dogs are welcome, they must be kept on a lead unless they have good recall, and are not permitted on the islands unless they are registered assistance or guide dogs.
