Islands of Adventure is a theme park located in Orlando, Florida. It opened in 1999 as an expansion to the Universal Studios and CityWalk areas. The park is composed of five distinct "islands", each having its own theme. The five zones are:

Marvel Super Hero Island

Located next to the Port of Entry, Marvel Super Hero Island has rides reminiscent of Marvel comic books. Its three rides are the Incredible Hulk Coaster, the only launched Bolliger and Mabillard roller coaster, Adventures of Spider-Man, a simulator ride set in New York, and Doctor Doom's Fearfall, a vertically launched ride simular to Power Tower at Cedar Point.

The Incredible Hulk Coaster features an unusual "launch lift" system, rather than the more common chain lift. The wheeled lift system accelerates the coaster to 40 mph in approximately two seconds. The Incredible Hulk Coaster was ranked the number one roller coaster by Discovery Channel viewers in 1999.

Toon Lagoon

Toon Lagoon contains mostly water rides. These include Bilge Rat Barges, a whitewater rapids ride, and Ripsaw Falls, a log flume with a 50 foot drop.

Jurassic Park

Set in the time of Jurassic Park the movie, the focal point of the area is the Jurassic Park River Adventure. Parkgoers can view animatronics of real dinosaurs and experience an 85 foot drop out of the destroyed raptor containment zone from the movie.

The Lost Continent

Having the only two dueling inverted coasters in the world, The Lost Continent has a theme of a lost medieval city. At the entrance to the Continent is the Flying Unicorn, a roller coaster for children. Beyond that are the two Dueling Dragons, Fire and Ice.

Seuss Landing

Seuss Landing is only zone at Islands of Adventure specially geared towards small children. It has several Seuss-oriented rides including the Caro-Seuss-el, The Cat in the Hat Ride, and If I Ran the Zoo, an interactive play zone for kids.
