What do you wear on a universal water ride?

You can always use a poncho, either to wear or to keep things dry. On floorless coasters, like Dragon Challenge, flip flop type footwear is not recommended, but there are storage racks to store your shoes while on the ride.

Don't wear sneakers on water rides. That seems obvious right? But on rides like Popeye and Bluto's Bilge-Rat Barges you will get soaked and you have to wear shoes. So even if you just bring a cheap pair of flip flops in your bag, switch out your shoes before the water rides.

Yes, but you have to pay for them ($6 as of 2023). So take your own to avoid having to rent Volcano Bay towels. Hotels don't want you to take their room towels to the water park, so I highly recommend traveling with thin linen towels. I talk more about these in my packing post.
