If you’re planning a trip to Volcano Bay and you’ve never been before, then we are excited to give you a pre-introduction to TapuTapu! Once you scan your park ticket into this oasis of a water park, you will be handed a waterproof wristband that you will wear all day long; this wristband is a vital tool for your day and is entirely genius. It eliminates standing in long attraction lines; you will use it to hold your place in the park’s Virtual Line, then relax and play until it’s time to ride. Plus, with TapuTapu, you can enjoy the fun and convenience of activating interactive surprises, opening lockers, making cash-free payments, and more! Once you’re ready to leave the park, you will drop it in a return bin on your way out.
