Make your getaway from the every day on an adrenaline-soaked, aqua adventure. Take an exotic vacation to a private island that features a massive floating waterpark, an aqua obstacle course, and resort-style amenities. Waterloo Adventures on Lake Travis is a unique thrill for family, friends, or anyone wanting to take a solo splash.

Conquer over 600 feet (that’s longer than two whole football fields) of fun and challenging obstacles, from the 14-foot tall Ice Tower XXL to bouncy monkey bars with slides. The huge floating trampoline is like something out of a dream! Make a giant splash from the Springboard Jumping Tower. The aqua park has over 70 pulse-pounding challenges, so you can test your skills on bridges, balance beams, and the 12-foot Free Fall Water Slide. Master the climbing walls and hurdles! This year there are more beach games than ever before.

Waterloo Adventures is an easy half-hour drive from downtown Austin, but the private beach will make you believe you’re on an exotic, exclusive vacation. It’s the ultimate Hill Country lake experience. Reservations are required to make sure that overcrowding is never an issue. COVID protocols remain in place to ensure guests have a safe, healthy experience.

Relax on the boat ride to Adventure Island as you watch the gorgeous scenery. Lake Travis is nestled among rolling hills, and experiencing its natural beauty is sure to refresh and reinvigorate guests. Savor the inclusive, resort-style amenities at Adventure Island. Kick back and relax under a lakefront umbrella on a chaise lounge or hammock. Floating picnic tables are the perfect place to refuel for another round of obstacle challenges. The on-site food truck serves up some of the most delicious food in the Hill Country. There’s nothing more satisfying than a warm, tasty meal after working up an appetite with all your water play! Top it off with a frozen drink, wine, or beer at the Cabana bar. Free lockers, free sun umbrellas, free floaties, and free parking are all included, as are changing rooms and clean, comfortable bathrooms.

Whether you’re a splash-sports superstar or a newcomer to water obstacles, Waterloo has fun and thrilling challenges for everyone. Have a blast during your reserved time on the obstacle course, then enjoy all day at the Aqua Park, or take a second run through the obstacles for only $10. Grown-ups will feel like kids again, while the kids create memories to last a lifetime.
