Thrill-seekers and families alike are in for a refreshed experience at Six Flags Hurricane Harbor Arlington as it sets to open its doors on May 10 for the 2025 season, promising a blend of exhilarating water slides, winding lazy rivers, and playful family areas. An announcement from the park revealed that visitors can anticipate more than 40 attractions suitable for all ages, including family cabanas and many dining options, ensuring an enjoyable visit for everyone involved.
As part of its season preparations, Hurricane Harbor has ramped up its facility improvements, including new dining choices, revamped restrooms, an infusion of additional cabanas specially for families, colorful murals brought to life all around, and an overall aesthetic upgrade. While the park is set to function only during the weekends between May 10 and May 18 with varying operational hours, it plans to shift into its full daily schedule starting May 24, as reported by the City of Arlington's official website.
The most significant addition to Hurricane Harbor this season is Splash Island, a 58,000-square-foot family playground poised to introduce over 110 interactive water features, seven waterslides crafted for children, and a mega 1,000-gallon tipping bucket. It's projected to be the park’s most substantial investment to date and is scheduled to open later this summer. More details on the project can be explored at sixflags.com, the park's official website, which also offers season passes for the 2025 season and the latest updates on park hours.
Planning a trip to Hurricane Harbor necessitates an awareness of certain guidelines for a smooth park experience: life jackets are mandated for guests not exceeding 48 inches in height and 52 inches on select attractions, with the park only accepting US Coast Guard-approved life jackets. Young visitors under 42 inches require the accompaniment of a supervising adult at certain attractions.
