Don’t waste your money! We just spent the day there today and half of the attractions are shut down including any water attractions. Since half the rides are closed, you will experience an average wait of 75 minutes on rides that are working due to the crowds. The restaurant and food venues are a total ripoff. Over $10 for a box of popcorn or a pretzel. The food as a whole is awful and outrageously expensive with long lines to even get in any restaurant.Shortages of staff only add to the problems they are having. Never again. Stay away.
