Wahaari te Auk Modu!

It means Welcome to Lost Island in Aukipi, the official language of Lost Island.

Travelers, we welcome you to join us for ACE Gets Lost for a fun-filled day of thrills and discovery.
Not only will you have a chance to ride everything at the Themepark, including Fire Runner,
but you can travel on the free tram back and forth to the waterpark as well
for rides on their water coaster, Wailua Kupua.
Join in on the Video Scavenger Hunt or participate in the Amara Aviators flip challenge. This year, we are partnering with Lost Island to raise funds for Give Kids the World by having a raffle during registration for multiple lift-hill walk opportunities and a special "Danger Zone" experience! (Bring cash for raffle: $2 per ticket, 3 for $5)
We hope you will join us for this exciting adventure!
