    Wet n wild is not what it used to be back in the day's... but for the pass 2yrs before Pandemic & this year half of there rides are always "CLOSED" why pay that type of money when you can't even enjoy all the rides "RIDICULOUS" I only go there now just to take my toddler for the kiddos area..

    AMAZING FUN FILLED Water park! The life guards and staff were so diligent in ensuring the safety of all visitors at the park. The rides were LOADS OF FUN!!! #1 water park in all of Las Vegas!

    Got here and the concrete was hot everywhere. The old wet n wild had water emitters along the sidewalk. To make that worse, they had a scale at the top of a ride that was made of stainless steel and it was in the hot sun. Easily 150°. I burned my feet and hopped right off in pain. The attendant splashed the scale with water but it was still incredibly hot. Most of the day they played mariachi type music that I found to be repetitive. When we ate lunch, they told us it would be an extra ten minutes for one of the combos we ordered. So we sat and waited but ate the food we received already. The pizza was cold and the fries were stale as cardboard and similar in taste. The wait for the last combo ended up being 25 minutes. I was thoroughly disappointed with this place and don't plan to return. I had been here before and had been disappointed but my sister had convinced us to go again. That's two strikes against this place. If you do come here, bring flip flops or aquasocks because your feet will surely burn.

    Yaaaaaayy!!!! Had a great time! If you are a local, buy the season pass, if you can. It's double the price of the single day pass; for an additional price, you can add an endless drink cup that you bring with you every time. So you can definitely make the most of it. And you can use it at both parks!!!! Good eats and fun time for all!

    Wet n Wild Christmas Town. Wet n Wild puts together a little Christmas Town while they are shutdown for the winter. We were pleasantly surprised how nice it was. The lights were beautiful and they had other nice things to do. They had a an inner tube slide, a train, a light show, climbing wall, ice skating rink, and a paint ball shooting gallery. Everything was included in the price of admission except the paint ball. We had a great family time and enjoyed the lights!!!

    We had so much fun there and will be returning weekly. We bought the season passes and they are definitely worth the money if you're going to come and visit more than twice. I had not been to this new Wet and Wild and only had memories from the one on the strip as a child. It was really need to take my kids here and it's all updated and new and clean. The staff was friendly and helpful, the rides were so much fun, and the food was good too. I will definitely recommend this place to all my friends.

    So many rides and attractions! This is now called Cowabunga Canyon but it's amazing! One day is 45 dollars or the whole season is 100 dollars. Highly recommend the season pass! Then you have access to the Summerlin and Henderson locations all the way through part of September. It's wonderful!

    Great memories at Wet n Wild Orlando, unfortunately they closed down so it was great to make a trip to Wet n Wild Las Vegas. Small crowds and great prices on the food! However, their lines can be handled better and their tubes were mostly deflated. All in all, my husband and I had a fun time and were pleased with our trip :) do be careful when getting in the slides (especially in the kids section) sometimes they aren't leveled and your toes can get caught.

    I do not recommend eating and especially feeding children here in food truck!!!! unless, of course, you want to end up in the hospital with food poisoning! take a look at the fries. It smelled awful. The fries show that the oil in the fryer hasn't been changed for a very long time. Also, the fries were covered in ashes and tasted like a coal. We didn't allow children to eat. When I asked to change the oil, clean the fryer and stop poisoning people and kids, the manager said that they closed one compartment. But we still were sitting and we saw that people were taking to same kind of food from that truck! She also started lying. that they change the oil every other day. then she began to say that they change the oil every day, but new staff came and they did not have time to train them to change the oil! Few people know that in addition to the food poisoning that my friend earned with my mother, it is also dangerous with carcinogens that provoke cancer! My friend had to go to the urgent care! Oil has to be changed min twice a day!

    Cowabunga Canyon is one of the funnest Water park out there. Location is great (easy to get there) very welcoming staff, be ready to bring lot’s of sunscreen. Very important. They have a big variety of pools and water slides. The best is the DJ and live bands they had last summer on the weekends. The Pizza is great as well, lot’s of desert choices as well. Don’t forget to bring flip flops because in the Summer the floor is very very hot (this is an important tip!) better to arrive early in order to get a good spot under the shade. Enjoy

    Bought the season passes for my kids and I while we stayed in Vegas for 3 weeks. It was totally worth the money. The rides are fun for both adults and kids. Chicken strips and fries were really good. Churros need some improvement though. I would definitely recommend it. Even with 118 heat, it was quite cool with the water plays.

  • 4/5 WithWil 5 years ago on Google
    This place is definitely really fun for the kids. It's large ...so there's a lot of room for them to run around and the rides can definitely be exhilarating as well. A bonus to the place being so big and there being so much for the little ones to do is that they can tire themselves out. I have witnessed some arguments there, but have yet to see anyone get physical. The food is pricey, so make sure everyone eats beforehand and/or pack food. There are usually some places with shade available if you get the at a good time.

    We visit Cowabunga Canyon almost weekly!! The season pass is a great value. We love all the slides, the lazy River is my favorite and the wave pool is always a good time. Highly recommend to anyone looking to escape the vegas heat and seeking family fun!

    Water shoes, definitely. Otherwise, the scalding hot pavement will take away from your fun. Also, lockers are worth the price.. very convenient. Gift shop is small but there is a lot to choose from. The refillable big cup is a life saver. The employees are very helpful.

    Where do I even begin? Was over charged for a cabana, had to call them from inside the park to ask for a cabana host to service all of the cabanas in our area (most cabanas just went and got their food themselves). The lazy river is chalked full of roaches. But outside of that, the this is a great way to spend a day with the kids at the water park!

    Whole family had a lot of fun! All of the slides exciting most surpassed my expectations. Growing up in Las Vegas and spending plenty of time at the original Wet n' wild, I was hoping to see of the classics like the willy-willy, the bomb bay and Der Stuka👍 nothing really compared to the originals but that being said I didn't leave disappointed... There is a great variety of rides and slides at cowabunga canyon, including some slides all 4 of us could ride at the same time. Great for families! Looking forward to this summer

  • 3/5 sydney r. 10 months ago on Google
    Fun, but there were a few drawbacks. The lines for food got out of control fast and they did not have thier main food area open. The kids play area was for kids of all ages but not meant for kids under 5. It was just too aggressive with the water spraying from every angle and too overwhelming for the small kids.

    We reserved a cabana for $200 that was occupied by squatters when we showed up and had a mess of greasy food all over. The safe didn't work and none off the employees could fix it. We had no safe place to put car keys, purses, or wallets. It took over 3 hours to ride 2 tube rides. No managers or staff over 18 years of age were available to talk to for hours. The kids had fun on the rides but we will never be back. The management is wholly to blame for how the children run this park.

    We had a great time today! The staff was super friendly, it wasn't too crowded, lines were short and our cabana was amazing. There was lightning for a little bit, so we had to get out of the water, so the lifeguards set up and played a bunch of games in the grass with all of the kids. So fun and great customer service!! We will definitely be back!

  • 5/5 Sarah Van R. 8 months ago on Google
    Fun, clean, organized, well-run, and our grandsons ages 8 and 10 had a blast! We had a cabana we book online prior to our visit and made the 112 degree heat completely bearable. Our cabana server Johanna was amazing. Very attentive with such a beautiful smile. Five star service for sure! The food was hot, fresh, and delicious. We bought the handmade dipped chocolate frozen bananas yummy and such a treat! We like how fast the lines moved and how the lifeguards were attentive to giving us the rafts. You are able to bring in factory sealed water bottles, and noticed there was plenty of shaded areas with umbrellas and even behind our cabanas a nice grass area where people brought in pop ups. We been to both Cowabunga Bay and Canyon on our visits to Las Vegas and we had great experiences at both! Incredible to see, especially today businesses that do it right! Bravo to Cowabunga! Don’t hesitate to book your family will thank you! Just remember your sunscreen, hats, water shoes, and water!

    Love the park been coming to this one and Henderson pass holders every year. Today we got a funnel cake on the way out as we always do,and it was burnt, so I said this is burnt can I get another one the girl originally said "it is not burnt" and I said "yes it is" and she replied "that's how we were trained to make them". So I found a manager and she said can I please make you one. I said yes please,but it was no better than the first. Funnel cakes should be light and fluffy,some parts a little crunchy. This is the second one they made.

    Great fun for the entire family! Prices for snacks are reasonable, staff is helpful. If you're able I recommend showing up as the doors open to get a nice sitting spot. Definitely recommend.

    My family and I recently visited Cowabunga Canyon on Fort Apache, and overall, we had a great time. However, I must admit that renting a private cabana turned out to be a waste of money. The cabana host was nowhere to be found when we arrived, and it took almost an hour for us to get water delivered to our cabana. To make matters worse, when we asked for more ice, we had to wait over an hour, and it was eventually brought by another host whom we had to flag down ourselves. We even had to walk to the restaurant to order our own food and refill our water container, not once, but twice. It's frustrating to have paid for a service that wasn't properly provided. Throughout our 7-hour stay, I only saw our cabana host about three times. On the positive side, the water in the park was nice and cold, which was perfect for the Vegas heat. Moreover, since it was a Thursday, the place wasn't as crowded as it could get on weekends, which was a pleasant surprise. Overall, while we enjoyed our time at Cowabunga Canyon, the disappointing cabana experience was a downside. Hopefully, they can improve their cabana service for a more enjoyable visit in the future.

    Great water park. Clean, we’ll staffed, organized. We got a cabana which was fantastic. My only caveat is that I wish the slides would have more tubes available and that the staff would move the riders along faster.

    You're getting a one star review because my family just drove all the way over here because your Google profile says you're open and you couldn't have one person mark it closed. This is a very simple task to complete and it's unacceptable. So if you are reading this review they close in October I believe I even checked their phone system that stated they would be open.

    Close fun for kids and adults in the city. Price is a little over the top for each head, price of food is normal about equal to the airport. But the kids loved ❤️ it!

    I think the other Cowbunga bay is great, but this was fantastic. A lot of rides A lot more places for you to sit, and honestly all of the rides were open making it easier to not have to keep going to the same ones.

    Opening Day! There's still a bunch of leafs and sticks in the pools! Can tell the pools need some TLC, not enough rubber tubes for lazy river. Staff (lifeguards) clearly need training. People horseplaying with toddlers around in Lazy river. Definitely prefer Henderson location

    Beautiful and clean park. Parking is close and not too far of a walk to the park entrance. Food and beverage options are relatively high given the quality (just snack bar food items). The staff is helpful and kind (given their young ages lol) Getting there earlier in the day (before noon) would be highly recommended, after noon it seemed like the park got a lift more crowded, and it’s not the biggest of water parks. So gettin in earlier and claiming some good shaded real estate to keep your things at would be ideal.

    Good fun for a great price. The cafe ran out of most foods. And the line to get what they had left was very long. Probably better just to leave and go eat then come back till they figure out a better system for the cafe. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Over all had a very good time.

  • 5/5 Wade R. 7 months ago on Google
    Okay, listen, I wanted a lazy river and I got exactly what I wanted. Other than adding more shade to the river itself, this thing was perfect for a trip into or through Las Vegas. I can’t speak for the rides. I arrived around 2PM, hit the lazy river after applying some much needed sun screen for the day, and because it was summer there was late hours! I entered that lazy river and only got out once to eat. The rest of my time was floating around, relaxing, do the occasional swim to break away from the pack to enjoy some extra space, and chatting with a friend. The food is good for where you are, but you’re not writing home about it. Every encounter with an employee was courteous while a bit more professional and service-oriented than I might have expected. Overall a pleasant surprise for this water park. There are plenty of lifeguards on duty, and they let the little things slide in an attempt to let you have fun. Just don’t take it overboard with the rough housing in the water, and you’ll have a great time.

    Hello , Just wanted to share our experience here in this scorching 115-degree afternoon. It's been so hot that we haven't been able to fully enjoy ourselves, but the place is absolutely stunning with its summer color theme. It truly makes you feel like you're already in Hawaii! This is a spot that girls and women would love, especially for capturing some amazing pictures. It's definitely a great place for summer hibernation for all Vegas folks. Stay cool and take care! 😎🌴📸

  • 2/5 Casey M. 2 years ago on Google
    We drove 2 hours from Utah for our son’s birthday, payed $200 for 5 of us to get in (advance online) and arrive to a piece of paper saying attractions will be alternating closed for staffing. We would have rethought our plans if they would at least update the website to inform people. The experience WAS NOT WORTH full price admission plus $8 parking and astronomical food prices! Will not be doing this again! Photo is wave pool after being closed for an hour, open for 30 min and closed again!

  • 5/5 Jacqueline H. 4 years ago on Google
    Great place to take the kids while in Vegas! Clean, reasonably priced, and so much fun! Rides are appropriate for older youth and teens! Wave pool, slides, loops, and lots of water!!!!

  • 4/5 Lateshia B. 1 year ago on Google
    I Don't Understand why this water park isn't open. I use to take my son and Nephew here in the summer and we would spend the ENTIRE day here. It was loads of fun for the boy. I wish Wet N Wild would Re-open.

  • 4/5 Diane R. 8 months ago on Google
    It is a great place for the family to enjoy water activities for all ages. The ladies' bathroom states that no one over the age 3 is allowed due to showers, but there's also family bathrooms available with showers. Now, it didn't have any toilet paper in it, and it's not the cleanest. Some people also do not have common courtesy when it comes to feminine products and just dispose of it anywhere. They provide lockers as well. You pay either by card at the kiosk by the lockers or cash at the general store. I was a little confused about the size I needed but figured it out. It's not good for storing lawn chairs, big umbrellas, or strollers. But bags of clothes, towels, and personal items can be stored there. And you can access it all day long. Now, when does that all day acess expire is questionable. Overall, my son loves this park, and we didn't have to rent the tubes. I would recommend a cabana if you don't want to carry an umbrella and want a little designated area and privacy. They also have fair-like foods like funnel cakes, pizza, and more. If you go more than once, a season pass is highly recommended!

  • 3/5 Mikaela A. 9 months ago on Google
    Nice small local water park. The water temp was great in all but the center kid area. The little kid area was the warmest and most comfortable. Great atmosphere during the week, short lines, and good rides. We sprung extra for one of the standard cabanas and wish we hadn't. Not worth the money. $160 during a weekday got us guaranteed shade and that's really it. Our attendant didn't show up for the first 1.5 hours that we were there, until my husband literally chased her down as she was leaving a nearby cabana. We had to ask for a menu at that point but it was another 30-45 minutes before she came back to take our order. The website says you are given 6 bottles of water with the price but instead we got 2 pitchers of tap water, not really the same value. Our pitchers of water didn't show up until about 3 hours after we arrived, another 60-90 minutes after we chased down our attendant asking for any service. Even so, they brought the pitchers but no cups. Those came about 20 minutes later. We were all sitting in the cabana through much of this time as it was raining, so it wasn't that they just missed us. Generally nice place to cool down in the desert, but don't spend the extra money on any upgrades, at least not during the week when the park isn't as full.

    I myself did not go my kids went to a birthday party. That was there first time going and they loved it. They didn't want to leave so I give it a great review. 4 kids age range 8-13

  • 5/5 melesio j. 1 year ago on Google
    Now is named cowabunga canyon. That's great because with one pass you can go to both parks. Season pass is really worth.

  • 3/5 Yvonne M. 1 year ago on Google
    It's a very small water park. 1 food source maned very little labor, took 45 mins standing in line. No healthy food selection. For the price, your better off going to the local swimming pool!

    The shower in the bathroom the water is very hot it’s impossible to regulate the temperature! The Ac in the bathroom Is way too cold , with the hot water and cold Ac makes me kids sick every time I went there! The kids slide is not very safe either my son almost fall from it ! The life guard didn’t move a finger to help him! I will never buy the season pass ever again!

  • 5/5 Julie D. 9 months ago on Google
    Wow, what a great kids area and lazy river. The staff were all nice, too. Super helpful. I'm so glad we got season passes. This was our first visit since the ownership changed, and it's nicely done.

  • 2/5 Jason S. 9 months ago on Google
    Purchased entry and cabana for 8 people. Really some of the worst service I've ever had. It took almost 2 hours to get the food we ordered and they forgot our drinks. We didn't get them for another hour despite reminding our server three times. I ended up having to call the sites phone number to ask them to send the drinks we ordered at which time someone did bring us water, but not what we ordered. I gave the server a lot of leeway st the beginning because she said she was slammed and the only one working, but thr cabanas weren't full and the park not very busy. And we saw several other staff servicing other guests.

  • 5/5 Whit G. 9 months ago on Google
    Fun place! I went there for my friend's birthday and enjoyed the heck out of there. They have food there, and although I didn't try any of it, it looked really delicious. All the rides were very enjoyable and my favorite one was Deuces Wild, which is almost just an 8 story drop. It's also great for family. I've gone there with family multiple times and there is so much to do for the whole family to enjoy. I recommend.

  • 4/5 Wendy K. 1 year ago on Google
    It will be better when they get their liquor license:) My kids loved the slides. My youngest was 41 inches and they all are 42". She couldn't go on most slides,so she was bummed.

  • 4/5 Daylise B. 9 months ago on Google

  • 3/5 Deirdre B. 10 months ago on Google
    Charged me twice for parking. Took an 1.5 hours for them to figure it out. All I had to do is go to my car and get the tag and then it took 5 min. One cashier for the ticket line One bag checker who made me remove all of my stuff out and took my water, small pkg of cookies. I was waiting in ticket line and noticed that 3 customers after me she only place her hand on the side and their belongings remained in tact.. later on the got away with bringing in items. That is illegal.... to pic and chooses who she searched!!!! Ridiculous

  • 5/5 Chastity C. 1 year ago on Google
    We went on a weekday which was awesome. Not alot of people. We able to get a covered table with chairs so we could use throughout the day. We didnt have to wait long in line for the rides. It was a great day to spend with my daughter and her friend.

  • 4/5 Jessica E. 1 year ago on Google
    Mt first job was at the original Wet 'n Wild on the strip and it was REALLY big...I just feel like this is such a small park with new heavy rafts to carry ask the way up the stairs. LOOVVVEEEEEE most of the rides...I just wish there was an easier way to get the rafts up!
