Do NOT buy your tickets at the park. I went on Fri Aug 12. There are no ticket booths open. You have to go to customer service where there is one employee working. There were about 25 people on line when I got there. A one day ticket on line is 40 plus a $14 service fee. At the park the same ticket is $70. I was told I could step off the line and buy it on my phone and it would be immediate delivery but they would not honor the price in person. It's crazy. I tried calling numerous times to get a gate price and I was told they couldn't give me one because the price changes daily based on demand. It's crazy. I will say it wasn't crazy busy. Our longest wait was less than a half hour. Park was clean including bathrooms.

We have been members of the 6 flags pass for about 10 years and it always has been a great place to go. However, this summer of 2021 they have very few rides open due to staff shortage so everything else gets ridiculous crowded! Very limited rides open, not even the lazy river has been open, they says they'll only open more rides on the weekends due the staff. 8 think it is horrible and they should do better and hire more staff. Someone mentioned that it is due to international staff not being available, make it more enticing to young adults to work there and get the park fully staffed. It is unfair to all of us who have memberships, passes or bought expensive tickets.
Also they must put on their website and app when they are closed due to full capacity. Many people like us drive at least 30/40 minutes to get there and to find the park closed in infuriating!!! It is specially overwhelming if you have children with special needs like I do.
Six flags must do better!!!

Nowhere to sit. Nowhere to stand. Nowhere to swim because it’s so crowded. No lazy river despite lifeguards on duty looking at empty water. Lines are insane for rides and food. If you don’t get there early and get a seat, or pay extra for one, you will not last more than an hour. Only positive is alcohol is freely available. You’ll need it when you sit crossed legged on hot concrete waiting for your kid to get through a 45 minute queue for a 30 second ride. That’s Hurricane Harbor.

Now at the time when prices are skyrocketing you hit your regular season pass holders where it hurts. Season passes I see no longer include hurricane Harbor! That is the last straw for me and my family of 20. We have put up with long lines no seating high prices of food long enough. This is the last straw! Goodbye Six Flags great adventure we will find other places to spend our money!!

I have never put a review online for anything. However my experience today was so horrible I fee obligated to inform other patrons of it. No social distancing, food lines took hours, bathroom and changing room are filthy, no park. The topped of this day was on believable. As my 3 year old daughter was playing in the kiddie area she was almost espoused to another child’s private areas. So mother aloud her at least 5 year old son go on the kiddies ride completely naked. I have no idea how long this went on for collectively. However as I watch this happen no one was doing anything. The park security was notify and they didn’t removed the make unsupervised child. Instead he was aloud to go up and down slides with he personal area about around a 100 little kids and bent over through a tunnel with other kids behind him. A good woman notified the security 3 times as she took a video to show them what was happen. Still no one not even a life guard removed this child. Not only was this horrible for all the little kids around him but how unsafe it was for the boy himself. I went up to the life guard and told him I was not the boys mother but I was going to cover him up. The life guard thanked me and said he wasn’t aloud to do anything about it. I had to take it upon myself to get my daughters towel and explain to the little boy that I know I’m not your mommy but it was not okay for him to be naked in front of everyone. I than covered the boy and moved him over to a spot near by Incase his mother came back. I asked him about f he know where his mommy was and he said know. He could nearly speak to me, I also had to help do the towel in n him because he didn’t seem to understand that it wasn’t okay for him to be undressed. I couldn’t watch this happen and couldn’t understand why no one at the park was doing anything to take care of this. Where was this boys parents or the parks security. There where parents taking picture and videos of this poor kid and removing there children from the area. Five minutes after I coves the boy a rude woman came over. All she said nastily to me was I was right here watching him, I know he’s naked you would put his pants back on and his mother went somewhere. Than as I went back to my sit my mother hears this boys mom make nasty comments about me and laughing. I decided that this was enough and left with my family. As I was packing up they finally closed that section of the water park but kinda to late since the mom had already ran of with her soon. I will never return to this park and we just bought season passes. Worst experience ever from start to finish.

The experience in the park was very confusing. It was supposed to be an exciting adventure but it ended up with questions like do I ever want to go back there. Most likely it’s a NO.
To save some money we purchased a meal option online. When we were trying to get the meal at Paradise Pizza and Grill we realized that it is all very confusing. There was no explanation at all, therefore we asked questions but the lady behind the counter who looked pretty much like a supervisor wearing all black was not helpful but most likely rude by saying that if we are not happy then we had to choose a better meal option. First of all, there is only one meal option to choose from. Second of all, I personally think that if Paradise Pizza and Grill sells a slice of pizza, that is poorly made of just thin bread, cheese, and 3 little slices of salami for $15 then I definitely don’t want anyone to snap at me with “choose a better option next time”.
Due to long lines and poor organization of redirecting people to the right spot out of the water to the safe area, you barely have time to try all attractions just once. Lots of people trying to cut the line with stupid excuses but the park representatives don't want to deal with it leaving it up to you.
So summing this up, I personally won't go there anymore and I won't recommend this to anyone. There are so many better options to spend a few hundred dollars per person.

Stay away this place is a scam! If you want to waste thousands of dollars go here. There is a 12-month membership fee that you cannot cancel no matter what you do. Also you have to pay for food and rides although you pay all this money for a membership that you cannot cancel for a full year. Stay away I repeat stay away this company is a scam!!!

This review is specific to ordering food. We ordered on the mobile app, the app said it was ready 15 minutes later, we stood in line for over an hour then tried to cancel the order and it wouldn't let us, so we decided to ride it out, and when we finally got the pick up counter, they are not even processing mobile orders and walk up orders separately and then we had to stand there and watch them make the food. This is absolutely unacceptable. It is 2021, real time information is a thing, if your service is down or behind schedule, let people know either on the app or on a sign, it's really not that hard.
Close to two hours to prepare one sandwich is just insulting. Get it together.

On 6/18/21 I went to hurricane harbor. Upon entering, there was a sign stating 4 rides were open. Actually there were 3 pools open and 1 tube ride open. My 3 grandchildren went in the wave pool for approximately 5-10 minutes and came out due to a clot of blood floating in the water. We went over to an employee to see which tube rides were open and there was only 1. When a sign states 4 rides I thought it was 4 tube rides. Needless to say, myself, my daughter and my grandchildren had lunch and were leaving and upon leaving my daughter and I stopped at guest relations to obtain a refund or possibly another one day pass on a day when all the attractions are open. Hurricane harbor refused to give my daughter a refund and offered her a ticket to the theme park for today. We were not prepared for the theme park because we were in bathing suits and flip flops and also we only had so much time. My daughter paid 40$ for a one day ticket. So here is what the other option was. You could forfeit the 40$ ticket or upgrade the ticket for an additional $20 to a season pass. I think hurricane harbor made a lot of their consumers angry today. We would have been happy with getting an entry ticket for another day but it was not an option. I think they took lots of money today from consumers without giving services. I hope someone out there who is in charge of hurricane harbor is reading this because today it was like they stole my daughters and how many other customers monies. I don’t understand how they could believe it was the right thing to do. I am very disgruntled about what happened today. I guess the six flags owners are only interested in $$$$. Disgraceful!!!

If I could give zero stars I would. The water park was understaffed. The food court was so dirty with food and condiments on the floor. Someone stepped on a ketchup packet and it blew up all over my legs and feet. After waiting for an hour in line to get my food the one register went down so my family got to enjoy our cold $118.00 worth of food. A lot of the water slides where down and the lazy river was closed too. I will never come back here again!!!!
