Poseidons Fury at Islands of Adventure Theme Park

This walk-through attraction utilizes some impressive special effects. Visitors enter a huge temple built in honor of Poseidon and join a tour group led by a young archeologist assistant. Through a series of bizarre events, guests find themselves in the middle of a battle between good and evil. Some of the effects used in the attraction are projections onto water screens as well as dramatic fire explosions. This attraction is one of the more unique experiences in Islands of Adventure, but is a little uneven in the storytelling and ends up being less than the sum of its parts.

There is no height requirement for this ride.
