For thrills, spills, and everything cool, your family can’t beat Myrtle Beach and Myrtle Waves Water park.
Myrtle Waves Water Park located on the corner of 10th Avenue North and Highway 17 bypass, features the area’s best water park rides including the “Ocean in Motion” wave pool, the Lay Zee river ride that meanders throughout and around the medium sized park, Saturation Station, an interactive water play structure with a tipping bucket, and an array of exciting water slides. You will find Myrtle Waves near these Oceanfront Myrtle Beach Hotels.
Kids love the saturation station, especially the little tikes between the ages of toddler to nine. Saturation Station is a great place to stay cool as the rain trees cascade water over the entire area. Kid play activities abound and mom and dad can make some cherished memories with toddlers. Make sure to bring your cameras so as to bring back home a keep sake that will last a lifetime.
Some of Myrtle Waves’ most requested rides are the Turbo Twisters. These are the world’s tallest wild enclosed body slides that twist and turn Earthward. The rides are very dark and the rider never knows when the next twist or turn is coming. The one hundred foot tall Turbo Twisters are an imposing sight from the launching area. Its spaghetti-bowl of three interconnecting purple slides look impossibly steep and twisty. As riders walk up the steps to the launching area sounds of muffled screams echoing from inside the slides add to the suspense. Without any visual cues, it’s impossible to get a sense where the ride is heading and hard to determine the speed–but rest assured it’s fast and deliriously fun. From the get-go, riders tear out, but when they navigate one of the tubes’ nearly vertical dips, they REALLY pick up speed. The splash ramp at the end of the ride makes for a soft and slow exit.
The Arooba Tooba at Myrtle Waves is a spinning “toilet bowl” ride. Riders finally get a chance to feel what it is like to be a flushed gold fish. The ride circles in a frantic downward motion in a wet and thrilling fashion. Lines for the Aruba Tooba attraction can get long.
The Ocean Motion water park is a great place to soak up the sun, catch a wave, or just hang out and eat from one of the many Myrtle Waves Theme park vendors nearby. Snow Cones are great in those mid Summer days, and Myrtle Waves Snow cones are a rare blend of sweet that makes the experience all the more memorable.
If you have the heart for it, make sure to roar down one of the major “Free Fall” slides that sit at the tenth avenue side of the theme park. This is a no holes barred, zero to sixty free fall that will leave your heart in your throat and your body soaked. Don’t blink on this one.
The park charges a one day admission and does run many specials with kids getting half off during some slower periods.
