Islands of Adventure Height Requirements – Chart Included!

Universal Orlando markets itself as a theme park made for older kids. They build their ads to target families or older adults that are looking for more thrill rides and adventure. This means it really helps to know Islands of Adventure height requirements before visiting.

Don’t forget, if you have a child that is too small or does not want to ride a particular ride, Universal Studios offers child swap. There are family rooms where one adult can stay with the little one(s) while you ride. After, you simply swap out for their place. You will stay back while they ride without having to wait in line all over again.

Also be sure to check out the height requirements for Universal Orlando’s other park, Universal Studios Florida. 

 

Important to note: Anyone under 48″ must be accompanied by an adult. This means any ride that has a height requirement under 48″, you’ll still need a supervising companion with you if you aren’t 48″.
