Clementon Park is one of the oldest operating amusement parks in the United States, with origins dating back to 1907.
The park was originally established as a picnic grove and lakeside resort by the Clement family.
The park's signature roller coaster, the 'Hell Cat', is a wooden coaster known for its steep drops and intense lateral forces.
The park grounds contain a natural lake that was a central attraction for early 20th-century visitors.
In 2021, the park was acquired by Indiana Beach Amusement Park's parent company, ending a period of permanent closure speculation.
Clementon Park & Splash World is a combined amusement and water park located in Camden County, New Jersey. It features a mix of traditional dry amusement rides and a dedicated water park section known as Splash World. The park is situated around a lake, which historically hosted recreational activities long before the current amusement structures were developed. It offers a variety of attractions ranging from roller coasters and thrill rides to wave pools and tube slides. The facility has undergone multiple ownership changes and periods of closure throughout its history. It operates primarily as a seasonal destination for families in the Delaware Valley region.
The viewing area overlooking the lake provides the best vantage point for capturing the contrast between the amusement rides and the water.
Check the official website before heading out to confirm if both the dry rides and water slides are operational on your chosen day.
Wear water shoes, as the concrete paths between the water park and amusement rides can become very hot in the summer sun.
Bring your own towels and waterproof phone pouches to avoid high rental or retail costs inside the park.
Do not assume all rides will be open during the early or late parts of the season, as staffing often dictates attraction availability.
Operates as a seasonal park, typically opening in late spring and closing after Labor Day weekend.
Proper swim attire is required for all water attractions, and shirts/shoes are mandatory when walking through the dry ride areas.
