Cool off at Six Flags Hurricane Harbor with more than three million gallons of invigorating water. Take a twist on the Tornado, as the tubes hug the inside of the tunnel, splashing back and forth on 5,000 gallons of swirling water. Or, perhaps you'd prefer to ride the Sea Wolf that takes riders through more than 830-feet of high-speed banks and heart-stopping drops in a raft large enough for three; Blue Raider, a two-passenger escape into a dark, flooded tunnel filled with drops and turns. Other rides include the Blue Niagara, Geronimo and the famed Black Hole. Experience ocean-sized waves in Surf Lagoon, take a leisurely float around the park on the world's first lazy river or catch the perfect wave on Surf Rider. Hooks Lagoon is a five-story treehouse with 150 aquatic features and tot-sized slides for the little fish in the family. And if it's competition you are looking for...challenge your friends to a game of sand volleyball on one of the five courts in the park. For relaxing in the sun, there is Suntan Lagoon, a one million-gallon activity pool with a waterfall in the center of the pool surrounded by a suntan deck. Open weekends spring and fall; daily during summer. From I-30 between Dallas and Fort Worth, take exit Texas 360 north or Texas 157 north to Lamar Blvd.
