Located minutes north of downtown Denver, Water World was selected as one of America's best waterparks by The Travel Channel. Here you'll find more than 40 attractions on 64 acres making it one of the largest waterparks in America.
Celebrating it's 30th anniversary in 2010, Water World has 46 attractions, including water slides, wave pools, and more family tube rides than any other waterpark. There are even a few one-of-a-kind, themed, water rides to be experienced.
Besides water slides, Water World has a 1,000-foot lazy river and two wave pools to cool off in. Thunder Bay is a giant 1.8 million gallon pool with a surface area larger than a football field. Captain Jack's is one of the first wave pools built in America and is filled with a half-million gallons of liquid fun.
Water World is known for offering an incredible waterpark experience at a reasonable price. Parking is free, plus inside the park there is a wide variety of food and beverage options, also at reasonable prices.
