Making its modest little flight nestled between Stealth and The Swarm and accessible to thrill and fun-seekers of all ages, Flying Fish is a welcome break between larger coasters and the perfect introduction to coasters for younger guests. With a minimum height restriction of just 0.9m, fresh-faced adventurers can enjoy their adrenaline apprenticeship on this wave-surfing powered coaster.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>With riders seated firmly on the back of the Flying Fish, the ride takes off! At a modest pace, the famed Fish swims through helixes and turns comfortable for all the family. Depending on the busyness of the queues, the train will go around the circuit two, three or four times. So whilst it may look short, there\u2019s plenty of reason to hop on board!<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243;
