Zoombezi Bay is a 22.7 acre water park that features a multi-level play structure, 17 state of the art water slides, a wave pool, an action river, a lazy river, private cabanas, a kiddie play pool and more.
Our favorites are the Tide Pool with the little water slides, Breakers Bay wave pool, and the Rushin' River. The little guy also enjoys the Otter Trotter for some basic water play. The massive bucket of water that dumps at Pup's Pier frightens my children, but the big kids love it on a hot summer day!
