At the center of the park is "Krakatau", a 200-foot-tall (61 m) volcano. Its slides include water coasters, capsule plunge slides, and slides that drop riders four feet above the pool below. As the park's main icon, Krakatau is featured in the logo.
At the entry, guests receive a wearable known as TapuTapu. As received, the TapuTapu can be used to hold one's place in line, to capture on-ride photos, and to interact with environmental features throughout the park. To use the wearable for purchases, guests must use the Universal Orlando app to link their park ticket and credit card to their profile, and create a PIN.
