Wet ‘n’ Wild was at one time the best and the only major water park in Orlando until the arrival of Disney’s Blizzard Beach and Typhoon Lagoon. Typhoon Lagoon was not a major threat to Wet ‘n’ Wild as it didn’t really feature flumes and slides that much but once Blizzard Beach was built it took a lot of WW customers.
It still draws plenty of people though throughout the hot summer. It’s location is ideal for people based on and around the I-Drive area.
The Rides
The Bomb Bay.
Individuals must be 48" in height or taller
Ranked as Florida's greatest thrill ride in Orlando Magazine, the Bomb Bay is designed to operate like the area in the fuselage of a military plane from which bombs are dropped. Enter a bomb-like capsule and feel the floor drop from beneath you as you take a heart-stopping plunge down a 76-foot high, nearly vertical slide.
Blue Niagara
Individuals must be 48" in height or taller.
Discover the excitement of this slide as you race, turn and splash through 300-feet of intertwined looping tubes that twist from six stories above the park and conclude with a splash landing. Individuals must be 48" in height or taller.
Der Stuka
Individuals must be 48" in height or taller.
Wet 'n Wild's first signature thrill ride, the Der Stuka, is a six-story speed slide which lets you "free fall" down a 250-foot slide, then coast to a stop along a 115-foot long water runway
Mach 5
Choose from three different flumes totaling 1,700 feet that twist and turn over different thrill courses ending in an exhilarating splash below.
Hydra Fighter
The Hydra Fighter is the first water ride in the Orlando area that allows guests to create their own unique water ride experience. Guests are seated in back-to-back swings equipped with water cannons. By regulating the water pressure, guests control how high and fast the swing goes.
There are several places to eat in Wet ‘n’ Wild all are of the fast food variety. There are also some shops for swim wear, gifts and souvenirs.
