This theme park is wicked and has loads of attractions in it and many shops to eat and but stuff, its in Southend-On-Sea, there is also a sea there near the attractions, you can win prizes.
everyone is aloud there as there's baby rides and the rest are for children and adults, there is a variety of rides to choose and go on, many I loved and did not want to go home.

~RIDES~

Sky drop- the sky drop is this big ride that goes up and then waits a bit then drops straight down, its a wicked ride but very high up, you can also get a bit scared of how high is it and loads of people can sit on it at a time as there is loads of seats.

Log flume- Everyone has to like the log flume but if not, then they don't like getting in there eyes, the ride is awesome and you in these log things and you get pulled up this hill on water but by the machine and then you keep going round and then you go straight into the water and you will get splashed, there is enough for three people in the seats so if your a big family you will have to go on separate logs.

Archelon- this ride is Amazing and is a turtle, the turtle goes round and round and there is seats coming from the top and you got to sit in them and then it starts slowly then gets fasts be warned if you hate going on fast ride's then DONT go on this one.

Barnstormer- this is a roller coaster which goes very fast and turns round bends its also a very popular ride like the others as it a roller coaster but not everyone like roller coaster's, sometimes I get scared on it.

Big wheel- the big wheel is very big and goes round and round, its not fast but it isn't slow its in between, you can see the whole of Adventure island(southend -on-sea) its got loads of seats in it but don't bounce around in it otherwise you will get scared.

There is also tones more of rides but I will go on forever, the other rides they are all awesome and fabulous, they are suitable for anyone as kids rides and adult rides as I have mentioned, but some rides are thrilling.
There is toilets, disabled toilets, first aid, food restaurants and direction maps to see where you are and what ride you want to go on.
There is also a sea-life Adventure on southend sea front and you can go there aswell as the theme park.


Throughout January and February there ride bands prices as follows:
Mini Band £7
Junior Band £12
Big Adventure Band £16

You can only pay for rides you can go on !!!!

Restaurants:
There is some restaurants in Adventure Island which are jungle jive cafe which is a cafe but its kind of a jungle in it with candles and branches and leaves.
There is a range of Burgers, Freshly Cooked Chicken and Wraps makes it the ideal meal break venue.
There is also an Adventure Island food bar which has a full range of tasty meals.!!

NEW FOR 2006
there is a candy cottage which has delicious treats for everyone and anyone, there is candy floss, Fudge, Sticks of Rock and sweets.

There is also pay as you do attractions such as Dodgems £2.30 per car / Formula AI Karting £3.50
Adventure Golf £2.95

There is arcades that you win prizes and put money through the holes which its wicked.

OVERALL

I would say this theme park is a brilliant and friendly park, the staff are friendly and if you ask for something they will do whatever it is like where are the roller coater and they would show you.
