A seemingly serene boat ride through the ancient ruins of Pompeii turns explosive as Mt. Vesuvius begins erupting. Fiery effects end with a splash finish as the boat plunges riders into the lagoon pool below.

Ride it during the last hour or two of the day. There's nobody there then, so you can ride it over and over again.
Use the water cannons, for a small fee, to completely soak your family or complete strangers.
If you sit in the first row, you will get wet. Very wet.
Hot Hot Hot. You think your going to cool off but the flames make it so hot.
The heavier the boat, the bigger the splash so make sure you take your friends!
Oldie but goodie. Especially in the summertime ????????☀️
Raging fire inside with a quick wet cool down at the bottom.
Prepared to get SOAKED ! Not recommended as the 1st ride of the day!
1/2 hour before park closes, you can ride multiple times with no line
Stop reaching for the fire! Why do people do this? They stop the ride lol
The best .25 you'll spend all day:)
if you want to stay dry..DO NOT SIT IN THE FRONT!!! you will get SOAKED !!! other seats are relatively dry
Sit in the middle seats, enjoy the ride and don't get wet!
If you sit in the front row, you WILL get drenched
Prepare to get wet.
don't sit in the front row...unless you like soggy feet.
This ride is closed more than its open
Pompeii is running during the day for HOS.
