Soaky Mountain is located on 50 massive acres of land. Inside, you'll find a 35,000-square-foot wave pool that can make six-foot-tall waves, aqua obstacle courses, huge slides, and multiple pools to splash the day away in.
The park is also offering a special deal on the season pass in celebration of the grand opening, so you might want to grab your summer tickets if you see yourself as a frequent water-slider.
You can snag a season pass for just under $100 — this will give you access to the park as much as you want throughout the rest of the 2020 and 2021 season. This ticket deal is only available until Friday, June 26.
