water rides

Wet amusement features

Water rides are amusement park attractions that involve getting wet—log flumes that plunge down chutes, rapids rides that spin through artificial whitewater, or boats that float through themed scenery.

The appeal combines the thrill of the ride with the refreshment of getting splashed: We saved the water rides for the hottest part of the day.
