Roa's Rapids
Great fun for all the family. Basically its a up lazy river without the lazy in fact its the opposite of lazy. At one of the entrances grab your life vest (colour coded by size). There is no reason why you cannot ride without the life vest, but we think its more fun with the vest as you seem to be swept along faster. Anyone not 100% confident swimming should wear a vest. Getting in and out of the rapids is quite a challenge, and one of the entrances (sorry forgotten which) is quite hard to exit at simply due to the speed of the water and because its at a bend where the water is trying to keep you going straight on. The river is nicely themed, including quite a few sprayers, jest from below and a great view into one of the aquariums (its easy to miss this as the turning is in the middle of the river). Try to surf the jets at the sides for that extra boost. Not to be missed. Digg

Although it's a 'Lazy River' there really is nothing Lazy about it at all, you drift round at a very quick pace in some parts, I would suggest wearing a life jacket, not because it's dangerous but because it's the best way to float round without worrying about paddling!
We spent AGES in here, partly because the current drifts you past the part where you get out so quick so you need to time it right!
