Answer 1

As the other answer said, there is no height restrictions for shark reef. If he gets scared easily you may want to check with him first that he wants to go in. You would't want to ruin his day by taking him to shark reef.


If you decide to do the SAS program at Shark Reef then he would need to be at least 5.


I would say that if he is over five he shouldn't have any problems with it at all, but some of the younger kids do get a little spooked by it. Just depends if he likes that type thing.



Have a great time!

Answer 2

I am not sure about a height requirement, but if you go and do the SAS program...you have to be atleast 5 years old.

What is Shark Reef like?

Shark Reef is one of the most unusual water park attractions you will ever come across. As you enter the area, CMs behind the counter will hand you a face mask, snorkel and life vest. (No extra charge!) You pass around the reef and along a rock cliff wall. At the entry point, you sit on the ledge and are given instructions on how to use the mask and snorkel. Then its into the chilly salt water to ogle the tropical fish and yes, live sharks. (They're small and harmless.)

Unfortunately, lingering is not encouraged here and you will probably be required to swim straight across the 60-foot pool -- and out. Less hardy souls can view the goings-on from the portholes of an old, upside-down freighter that conveniently sank right in the middle of the pool.

To document your encounter, you may want to consider bringing one of the relatively inexpensive single-use underwater cameras (about $10) that are widely available.

Shark Reef gets crowded quite early, so try to visit first thing when the park opens.

What is the SAS program at Shark Reef?

For those who want to spend a little more time "swimming with the fishes," Shark Reef now offers a longer program called the S.A.S. Adventure. It's a chance to learn Surface Air Snorkeling, involves using a "pony" tank and a small regulator as in SCUBA diving, as well as a buoyancy vest. There is an instructional overview and then you may spend a half-hour snorkeling. The fee is $20 per half-hour. Participants must be at least 5 years old. To sign up for the S.A.S. Adventure, and for more information, visit the kiosk near the entrance of Shark Reef.

Answer 3

I do not know for sure, but I do not think so. When we were there small children were in water diapers. Now either their parent of a cast member helped them swim the legnth of the pool. You may want to bring his own snorkle that cover his mouth and nose. The only problem I observed was getting the mask to fit the small children. The water is highly salty, much worst than the beach water.

Answer 4

Well there isnt exactly a height but it is recommended for BIG KIDS and TEENS.

Answer 5

you have to be at least 4'8 i think. but i wouldnt go on. there is a possibility the shark may attack you
