Hulk Hogan stated in an interview that he did not get to keep the Thunder Scarab boat used on screen, but he had one built. Hogan said he made the decision when he was heavily medicated following a surgery.

Chris Lemmon credits his decision to work on this series as the reason casting directors stopped hiring him, effectively ending his acting career.

Producer Douglas Schwartz said in an interview that Hulk Hogan would often spend his Friday nights at Hooters restaurant, after that week's episode had concluded filming. Thunder in Paradise was one of the first acting gigs of Heidi Mark, who started out as a Hooters girl, prior to her acting career. Schwartz himself owned a Hooters restaurant, along with his wife.

The Scaraab boat used in the TV series, 'Razzle Dazzle' was purchased and used by Richard Hammond in The Grand Tour special, 'Seaman'. This episode aired on Amazon Prime December 13, 2019. The boats name was changed to 'Jizzle Drizzle' as a joke by Jeremy Clarkson.

Several of Hulk Hogan's wrestling colleagues make appearances throughout the series, including Jimmy Hart (Jammin' Jimmy), Ed Leslie (Brutus/The Beast), Jim Neidhart (Norman Kowalski), Jorge Gonzáles (Terremoto/Mortador), Ray Hernandez (Herc), Fred Ottman (Youssef), Steve Keirn (Leavit), Terry Funk (Amarillo Doaks) and Steve Borden (Hammerhead).
