This national chain of water parks has a
great location on International Drive. You'll pass it on the way to Universal studios and
the other attractions on I-drive. Wet n Wild offers a wide array of water based rides and
attractions, a food court and retail swimwear at the Trade Winds Surf Shop. Staffed
by certified lifeguards, the park is a great place to cool off during Central Florida's
hot & humid afternoons.
You'll see one of the park's most popular
attractions from the street. The Black Hole is a massive structure made
of twisting black tubes that looks like a huge spacecraft. 1,000 gallons of water per
minute flow through the tubes to propel your two-man raft through 500 feet of
twists and
turns in thirty seconds. You shoot through the tubes in complete darkness for a ride
that's really out of this world.
Other tubing attractions include The
Fuji Flyer, a 6-story toboggan ride and The Surge, one of
the longest and fastest water tube rides in the Southeast.
Another hot attraction at Wet n' Wild is
the Hydra Fighter. This fun attraction places you in a swing that is
equipped with water cannons. By manipulating the direction and pressure of the water
cannon, you can control the velocity of the swing. This is a new attraction to Wet n
Wild, so be prepared to wait.
If all these rides sound too wild, there
are plenty of more sedate options. You can take an inflated tube ride around the park in
The Wild One or splash around in the playground. There's even a video arcade for
land-lubbers.
