FUN FACTS

Water parks have grown in popularity since their introduction in the late 1940s and early 1950s. The United States has the largest and most concentrated water park market, with over a thousand water parks and dozens of new parks opening each year. The tallest free-fall water slide on record is the 120-foot (37-meter) “Summit Plummet” in Walt Disney World’s Blizzard Beach.
