“Muito” is correct but changes the nuance; learners sometimes replace “super” with “muito” without noticing the informal tone.

Cultural Tip
In Brazilian Portuguese, “super” is a very common informal intensifier, similar to “really” or “super” in English. It works with adjectives and adverbs, but avoid overusing it in formal contexts. Also, use “é” (ser) because the fun quality is seen as an inherent characteristic of the activity, not a temporary state (which would require “está”).
