Robert HershmanAugust 11, 2017Roller coasters are awesome!!! Tickets and food are way overpriced. Be prepared to spend money- Maurice CobbAugust 14, 2011BUY A FLASH PASS!!! We were there for 6hours and only got on 4 roller coasters! The lines were longer here then at Disney World! Must get on Green Lantern, Kingda Ka, El Toro, Nitro & Bizaro!
KieranSeptember 15, 2013Gold flash pass is the tits! Totally worth the extra dough. Barely waited in line the whole day and rode the front of every major coaster.
Leave your cell phone in the car! You'll just wind up bringing it back there anyway. EVERYTHING gets wet!!
Denise ReicinoAugust 23, 2014Go on a Monday..less people and the lines are somewhat shorter. There are metal detectors so there is a long wait before you enter.
Artūrs KrūzeApril 21, 2014Great place! If there are no big lines make sure to sit in the first line of the roller coaster!
Sandy SoNovember 2, 2012Six Flags blocks web access on-site, so purchase your Internet tickets before arriving to the park! Don't worry if you forget to print; the park has print stations at the entrance..
Julian KrinskyJune 18, 2012Six Flags has the ultimate ride in all of amusement parks in Kingda Ka. Six Flags' newest attraction is the Sky Screamer! Sky Screamer that will lift you 24 stories off the ground.
Stef HJune 28, 2016Awesome coasters! Expensive food...stop by the Wawa, Burger King, or McDonald's before/after you go instead.
Jason VanderhornAugust 24, 2014Wave pool, lazy river and long lines. The snail pace of ride lines make Great Adventure's lines seem like express lanes.
Kirby J💚July 3, 2013Check the forecast if you're interested in a FlashPass. It's pointless on a rainy day when the roller coasters keep opening and closing. Prepare to get crap from people if you buy the ride twice pass.
Sarah KremerApril 9, 2015Smoking areas are located in blue, I can't stand calling security on people who don't follow the rules. Beer and other alcohol must be consumed in the area you bought it from.
Maria HenkelJuly 7, 2018If you're picking up your kid in the drop-off/pickup lot, be prepared to wait a long time! Once the shuttle bus came around, they didn't even stop to let my daughter off.
MetroFocusAugust 8, 2012Six Flags offers 10 different rides, from splashy play areas for tots, to slippery slides with mild, moderate and max thrill ratings. Read more
I came before summer and it was great. After that, not so much. 1) kids were throwing full water bottles in line; I got hit 2) rules are unevenly enforced throughout the park. Won't be back too soon.- jennifer thierbachOctober 11, 2013if your up for intense rides you have to try slingshot and skycoaster it's amazing and what a rush!
Good place to spend time with kids. Some cafe offered gluten free food.
Beautiful day central meeting area in loungers behind the big water bucket sunny and shady just a perfect day !
Jennifer SoetaertAugust 14, 2012There is a food stand right by the south beach locker rentals that sells $2.99 hot dogs. Best food deal in the park!
Michael StrekoMay 29, 2011The 8 dollar an hour staff tend to not do the best check of bags. You can easily roll up water bottles inside your towels and bring them in.
Matthew RathboneJuly 12, 2011If you get there early, you can ride pretty much everything without a line until about 2:30. Much cheaper than buying a flash-pass!
Jonathan L.July 20, 2022Fast pass not necessary on a Wed in the summer. There are hardly any lines & the park isn't crowded.
If you buy your Season Pass at the END of the Season (in the Fall....in Oct.) they'll let you also USE IT for the NEXT season as well!! I did that at the end of 2010 & now go all through 2011 TOO!
Chuck GeezJuly 29, 2017Great roller coasters. Nasty bathrooms. Rides and Safari were not operating. Still prefer Busch Gardens parks.
Charles FerranMay 26, 2017Absolutely LOVE this place. Been coming since I was a kid and now I have a season pass!
Iaisha GJuly 13, 2010Buy a flash pass (even if it's just a basic one). Sure it's an extra 30 bucks (less depending on your group size more depending on the level) but it is worth every penny!
Pretty good roller coasters. But if you go alone, you can ride much more!
TristanAugust 15, 2011the scream machine is what the park is known for. The Nitro is the best but the Scream Machine has the best tradition
Nicole McCuneJune 13, 2014Wear cargo pants and use those pockets for essentials. Don't bring a bag in the park. Save money on renting a locker at every ride.
AmmaroOctober 12, 2013Come early and go straight to the superman ride! Lines are usually supershort in the mornings
Go on the week day and u won't be in a line for an hour! Get some tan and have fun!
Scott KleinbergJuly 4, 2013I lived in Jackson for many years and worked here for several. It gets packed.
Ryan WatsonAugust 11, 2014Word to the wise, when buying flash pass you will need to leave your ID but an ID is also needed for every alcohol purchase. 1 ID per drink.
Benazir MartinezOctober 8, 2018Awesome! Fright Fest was great a little bit too packed but that’s expected of opening weekend.
CristinaAugust 31, 2014So cool! Perfect weekdays. Nitro and the Drop of Doom where my favorite. Adrenaline non stop!
Make sure you check out the Coca Cola Freestyle! Over 100+ drink choices and .99 cent refills if you have a souvenir cup or free if you have a wristband!
Samantha OrtizApril 23, 2013Get your whole train to scream 'Lucky Train!' When arriving back, conductor might let you ride again if your enthusiastic enough! Rode Kinda Ka 2x without having to get up!
Eduardo StimamilioJune 12, 2018If you like rollercoasters and adventure rides, you will love. I was expecting it to be more thematic.
Read the guest code of conduct and all instructional signs. They are posted before every attraction. This saves everyone time. Also every ride has a height check sign at the bottom.
Brett GarwoodJuly 11, 2015Nitro is the best overall. You must ride King Da Ka just to say you rode the tallest.
Rachel W.September 2, 2012Kingda Ka is merely a scenery piece. Consider yourself lucky if it's actually open. Enjoy El Toro and Nitro instead.
Arioch DivijJune 26, 2011Buy the flash pass it really helps we bought the hold pass and didn't have to wait in line at all. Managed to cover the while park in about 7 hours. We spent more time walking than we did in lines
Holiday in the park was great. Not crowded at all and the lights were really pretty.
Update: got in some more coasters this time around. Spring is a much better time to visit! El Toro 🎢😬🙈
BrownAugust 24, 2014This park is basically one big advertisement. Every attraction is sponsored by a candy bar or a bag of chips. Can't escape the advertising.
