First, there's the Power Tower found in AquaAdventure. Choose from four slides that stand 120 feet above the ground. Pick The Abyss if you want to get your heart pounding by flying through the darkness on a 50 foot drop. Or charge through a shark infested lagoon at the bottom of a 60-foot drop at Mayan Temple (don't worry; you're in a clear tube that is built into the lagoon). You can find Mayan Temple near the Royal Towers, and it's not difficult to find since it stands at five stories tall.
