Islands of Adventure - Park Guide:
Universal's Islands of Adventure opened in 1999 with many famed attractions instantly put-
ting it on the world theme park map - we would argue even more so that Universal Studios
Florida itself. The true revolution for the park, however, came with the opening of The Wiz-
arding World of Harry Potter, andexpansionandinnovationhasnotstoppedsince.Thepark
hosted 8.1 million guests in 2013 making it the more popular of the two Universal Orlando
theme parks.
Port of Entry
Perhaps the most beautiful entrance to a theme park in America, Port of Entry transports you
to a different time and place and shows that Universal really does think about its theming,
despite what some lovers of other theme parks may say. There are no attractions in this area
of the park but rather it acts as an entranceway to the islands of adventure themselves. You
will find shops and few places to eat in this area.
To the right of the welcome arch at Port of Entry you will find Guest Services where you
can get assistance with any guest issues including disability assistance, dining reservations,
questions, compliments and complaints. Lost and Found is also located here.
Lockers , a phone card vending machine and a payphone are all located to the left of the
archway. Strollers and wheelchair rentals can also be found here.
