If you plan to visit Kings Island there are some tips to making sure your trip is enjoyable. DON’T FORGET TO BRING appropriate swimwear for Crocodile Dundee’s Boomerang Bay Water Park or Nickelodeon™ Central (exceptionally revealing swimwear is not permitted), A jacket or sweatshirt for cool evenings; store them in lockers at the Front Gate or in Boomerang Bay. Bring sunscreen, lip protection and a hat or sun visor to protect you from the summer sun. Of course, if you forget them, these items as well as swimwear can be purchased in the park. Wear comfortable, broken-in shoes. Wear cotton clothing: it’s light and dries quickly on water rides, such as Whitewater Canyon and Congo Falls. You may want to bring an extra pair of dry socks.
Park maps are available at the toll booths or at the Front Gate as you enter the park. As you enter the park through the Front Gate, proceed to the right, instead of the left, to help avoid crowds. Visit major attractions early or later in the day to avoid longer lines in the afternoon.
Plan your meals at non-conventional times to help avoid restaurant and food stand lines. Visit roller coasters and other major attractions during traditional meal times to help avoid their longer lines. Little ones are especially susceptible to the sun. Apply an adequate amount of sunscreen on your children before you start your day at the park. Pack some moist towelettes or washcloths to wash off sticky hands and faces throughout the day. Before you set out, designate a specific place for family members to meet if they should become separated. Get input from each family member as to what he or she wants to do. Plan your day of activities built in with several breaks. Remember, this is supposed to be an enjoyable day at the park – not a marathon! Enjoy yourself and have fun!
