5/7/2023 0 Comments Splish plash ny![]() ![]() But it sounds cool: A tube slide ride with rushing water so you can keep ahead of those hungry prehistoric creatures. Dinosaur Falls – This tube slide ride debuted in 2012 so we haven't had a chance to try it yet. The Kahuna Bay Wave Pool is great for those looking to body-surf four-foot waves. ![]() Surf City Wave Pool is perfect for little kids who want to bob up and down as if they were in the ocean. The kids really enjoyed being able to go together, even though they did need a grown-up to escort them. Mammoth River – This is the only slide in the park that can accommodate a group. Giant Twister – Similar to Splash Down but without the luxury of the blow-up raft. And he even liked it!ĭragon's Den – After a steep and scary drop down a dark enclosed slide, you end up in a giant cylinder where you spin around a couple of times before popping out. Max Trax – I was totally surprised (and thrilled!) when my son decided to do this exhilarating and slightly scary trip straight down a 50-foot slide without a raft. We closed the park, and my six-year-old and his pals have been begging to go back again before the season ends. My son and I recently went on our first trip there with a bunch of his friends, and to say we were impressed is an understatement. The water is pristine and there's a surprising amount of shade. In addition to being super-cool (in both senses of the word), Splish Splash is immaculately clean and comfortable. Plus there are other attractions like two wave pools and a bird show. The 96-acre park has two dozen rides, ranging from tame kiddie pools to dark tunnels of terror. Bonus: You can see it from the the Long Island Expressway, so you can't get lost on the way there! In fact, Splish Splash on Long Island-which is considered by many folks (including my son) to be one of the best water parks in the country-is just a 90-minute drive from midtown Manhattan. There are many water theme parks within driving distance of NYC. But nothing beats the fun of taking a day trip to a nearby water theme park, where families can spend the whole day getting wet and wild. Cooling off in local sprinklers or pools is a rite of summer in the city. ![]()
