Insider tips

Purchase a wristband rather than individual tickets if you plan on riding more than four attractions.

Arrive early in the morning to beat the peak heat and maximize your time in the water parks before crowds accumulate.

Wear comfortable, waterproof footwear, as the wooden boardwalk can become hot and splintered during midday sun.

What to avoid

Do not attempt to walk the entire three-pier stretch in flip-flops if you have sensitive feet, and avoid purchasing food at the busiest main-entrance stands during peak lunch hours.

Good to know

Operates seasonally from early spring through mid-autumn; closed completely during winter months.
