Knott's Soak City

Knott’s Soak City Waterpark reopens its gates for another wet and wild summer during its longest season yet, on select dates through September 18th. Catch a ride down 23 different speed, tube and body slides or take a relaxing trip down one of the longest lazy rivers in the country. The 15-acre water park has something for each member of the family.

Relax in the one‑third‑mile Sunset River. This is where you can find me spending most of my time at. On this classic lazy river, you can nestle down into a colorful, cushy inner tube, put your shades on, lie back and let the gentle current do all the work of advancing you down and around the river. You’ll meander down the 1,780-foot long waterway to a destination of pure relaxation and enjoy some delightful scenery along the way. Sunset River is an excellent way for everyone in the family to cool off and chill out.

For the kids there’s a super fun three‑story Beach House, featuring 200 interactive water guns, nozzles, faucets, sprayers and other interactive surprises. Exclusively for tomorrow’s surfers, the Beach House offers three stories of hands-on water fun. And beware! Every five minutes the water bucket unloads 500 gallons of water on anyone below!
