Splish splash is located in Riverhead, New York. This was park opened up in 1991. At this time it only had 3 body slides, 2 speed slides, 2 tube slides, 2 children’s play areas and a lazy river. In just twenty short years Splish Splash Water Park has built itself up to be one of the top water parks in the United States according to the Travel Channel. During the summer of 2008 the park announced that it would be adding 7 new rides over the next few years. Their latest ride that they added was Dr. Von Dark’s Tunnel of Terror, in 2009. This ride is a longer winding slide that you go through in total darkness. People get on this slide with either a one or two person tube. They will then wind back and for a experience a drop of 40ft. Quite a bit has happened to the water park in just a short amount of time.
This park is spread out over 96 acres and has tons to offer. It features over 30 slides and attractions for people of all different ages and swim skill levels. In addition to what was mentioned earlier the park has also added a wave pool and 2 more children’s play areas.
If you need a break for the water you can always enjoy one of the dining areas or the spectacular Bird Show. During this show you will watch 4 parrots compete for the title of Pirate Weldon’s Parrot. This show is fun for the whole family and is bound to have everybody laughing.
Tickets are available for this park at a price of $37.99 for regular admission, $28.99 for those under 48” or over 62, and children 2 years of age and under are free. For more information about this park you can visit its website.
