Best TimeIn midsummer (June to August), enter right at the 10:30 a.m. opening. That way you can quickly get through the queues for the most popular rapids slides, then lounge in the Lazy River at midday to beat the heat
Getting ThereLocated in the Adobe Dam recreation area in northwestern Phoenix. Drive along I-17 and exit at Pinnacle Peak Road to arrive directly; the park has a huge dedicated paid parking lot
Travel Tips
- This is Arizona's largest, top-tier hardcore water park, part of the Six Flags group, with dozens of world-class thrilling water slides and a giant wave pool inside
- The park is an extremely popular seasonal site, usually open only from mid-March to early October each year, so be sure to verify the exact seasonal hours on its official site before your trip
- Because the sun on Phoenix's surface is extremely fierce, the open-air ground in the park gets scorchingly hot on your feet at midday, so it's highly recommended to wear professional anti-slip water shoes throughout to protect your feet
Reviews
Positive
- The ultimate lifesaving spot in a Phoenix summer! The big funnel slide (Bahama Blaster) is so thrilling it makes you scream like crazy, and the large wave pool is also perfect for the whole family to play in the water—first-rate cooling effect
- The rides are very abundant, with hardcore slides for adults chasing an adrenaline rush as well as gentle water castles designed for young children; there are plenty of lifeguards, giving you peace of mind
Heads up
- In peak season, buying sunscreen, renting lockers, and buying drinks are all very expensive. Also, weekend queue times are extremely long; without a Flash Pass, queuing under the blazing sun is miserable
