Frequently Asked Questions about The Crab

  • What exactly is a water slide tower?

    It is a large central structure featuring several water slides with different layouts, heights and thrill levels. Multiple guests can start from the same platform while choosing different slide experiences or racing side by side.
    • What is the minimum height required to ride The Crab?

      Please check the information panels located at the entrance of the attraction for the minimum height requirement.
      • Do all the slides offer the same speed and thrill level?

        No. Each slide provides a different level of excitement. Some feature steep, high-speed drops, while others combine sweeping turns and enclosed sections for a more moderate experience.
        • Is The Crab suitable for young children?

          Because of its fast slides and minimum height restrictions, it is not recommended for very young children. For younger guests, Splash Port is the ideal play and splash area within Coral Bay.
