Roa's Rapids is so much fun. It has a current that you can't stop. You can't even stand up. But if your young it might be hard to keep up with your parents. That happened to me. it's a must ride ride! - Katie G-Desjardins

My five year old had us go around this around ten times. I really liked it also. The speed and freedom of not being bound to some flotation device was good. Fighting the current. There are tons of vests outside for those who get tired easily or the young. Definitely my favorite. Also, no lines. - Mark Brockman

KIOOOOOOOOOOORA Nice river, great fun! Will take the energy out of you if you try and fight the current!!! My fav! - Gareth H

We spent over an hour in the rapids - top tip: even if you are a strong swimmer grab a life vest and (excuse the pun) GO WITH THE FLOW! My daughter says that I was pulling some very funny faces on my way round. The currents are fantasic and we laughed the whole time we were in there. What more do you want from an attraction? - Justine Mower

VERY RELAXING I could of stayed in this for hours it was great to be able to just float. Except when i was ready to get out I missed my exit and tried to walk up to it a little bit but the rapids were to strong I had to go around again, just make sure you are ready to exit!! - Amanda W

by far the best attraction at aquatica! i stayed in it for at least an hour, and came back several times. - roxy m

Roa's Rapids is one of my favorite attractions in the park, featuring a faster-than-the-norm flow as well as a more wet, lush and twisting layout that sets it apart from other rivers I have seen in Orlando. It was modelled extremely well and blends in completely with the rest of the park's attractions. My only regret is that it ended so soon. - Adam Roth
