The kids are back to school, but you can still catch the last wave of summer in Arlington. Six Flags Hurricane Harbor is 47 acres of water wonders that will entice you with 3 million gallons of splish splashy thrills. But you are short on time if you want to enjoy them all…the final day for 2016 is September 18.

Imagine how relaxed you’ll be bronzing up at the Suntan Lagoon or chilling in the Boogie Beach wading pool. Then envision a swirl down the Black Hole or a six-story drop on Geronimo. Now see yourself making an equally grand splash with your budget when you book one of our online vacation packages, complete with discounted lodging and attractions tickets.

Why not make this dream a reality? Everyone knows that Hurricane Harbor is the best place to cool down when the sun heats up. But you may not know these fun new, fun and helpful facts about Hurricane Harbor:
