Wet 'n' Wild Water World
What is it?
Wet'n'Wild Water World is a large water park situated in Oxenford, Gold Coast, owned by Warner Village Theme Parks. The park is Australia's, and the world's third, largest water park. Wet'n'Wild Water World, or just Wet'n'Wild is located adjacent to Warner Bros. Movie World, a movie-related park also owned by Warner Village Theme Parks. While the park remains open all year, all pools and slides are heated during winter.
History
The park opened in October 1984 as Cade's County. The name was later changed to Cade's County Wet'n'Wild, then simply Wet'n'Wild in 1987 after a licensing agreement was reached with the Six Flags chain of water parks in the USA.
In 2005, the Double Screamer waterslide was knocked down and removed. In it's place now stands Buccaneer Bay, a large pirate-themed play area. The Mammoth Plunge slide was also removed, but not demolished. Intstead, it was moved to Sea World, where it now operates.
In 2006, the Extreme H20 Zone opened at the park. The new section of the park featured one new and two second-hand rides. The Blackhole and Mach 5 were bought from a Brazilian water park during its demolishment. The Tornado was built at the park.
In 2007, the park introduced the SurfRider, an Intamin built half-pipe rollercoaster. 2007 also saw the demolishment of the WhiteWater Flumes slide complex, during a massive expansion to WhiteWater Mountain. The River Rapids replaced the Flumes.
In 2008, a half-pipe waterslide was announced to be built at the park, similar to the Shaka waterslide at Hawaiian Waters, also owned by Warner Village Theme Parks. The project is currently titled the Sidewinder, but due to the fact that there are already the Sidewinders waterslides operating at
the park, the name is not final.
