Make a splash at Hurricane Alley, the Coastal Bend's largest and newest waterpark, which features exciting attractions and plenty of water so you can cool off under the Texas sun. Experience the rush of the 6-story Cat 5 water slide, race down the Storm Chaser speed slide, battle the waves of the Storm Surge or get carried away in the Gulf Stream lazy river. There are also designated areas where pint-sized visitors can have fun made just for them. There are also swim-up bars where adults can enjoy a drink without leaving the water.
