Life offers a lot of choices… Tomorrow you could do homework? Sound exciting? (Not.) Spend the day cleaning house? (Why me?) Go shopping? (Boring)

Or

You could come to Thunder Island and have a blast. Imagine flying through the air line a bird with a turbo charger on our new Soaring Eagle Zip Line. Or how about standing so high you can look down on the tops of the trees and you prepare to plunge down our Black Water Tunnel Twisters or shoot like a rocket through out Thunder Rush Extreme Body Sliding.

Haven’t had enough fun yet?

How about racing around on our Formula 1 and Grand Prix Go-​Karts to the thrill of the crowd as you race for the finish line? Afterwards to slow things down a little you can challenge your friends and family to a game of Jungle Mini Golf on our huge 17 hole course.

Still more?

Don’t forget the video game room.

Tired? How about a tube slide (Yeah) or going down the kiddie slides (Just Kidding) or rafting down our Mini River. Yes, we have it all. And so can you. Just get in the car and head to Fulton. You can’t miss us (Of course we do offer directions just in case).

Family Fun?

Have a big event coming up…

History

Established in 1979.

Thunder Island, known as the biggest small park around was born in 1979 with a go-​kart track. While some attractions come and go with trends, go-​karts still remain popular today. While notable past attractions included a Big Eli 16 Ferris wheel transplanted from the location of the movie «Big», a helicopter ride, cross country skiing, the hottest BMX track on the east coast and bumper boats, today the park seems have all the right stuff. 2013 marked our 35^th season under the original owner, designer, builder, and operator. With continued expansion and upgrades the park still only utilizes 10% of the available property. Check out our eight water slides with 5 pools, 3 styles of go-​karts, a beautiful sprawling jungle golf course and the newest Soaring Eagle Zip line ride.
