The sun is shining, the Jersey Shore breeze is calling, and the iconic Wildwoods boardwalk is officially buzzing with the sounds of summer! One of the Shore’s most beloved destinations for family fun, Splash Zone Waterpark, has flung open its gates for the 2025 season, ready to deliver a tidal wave of excitement. This year is particularly special as Splash Zone celebrates its 25th anniversary with a fantastic, interactive new addition that promises to make a prehistoric splash!

Nestled right on the lively Wildwood boardwalk, Splash Zone is renowned for packing an incredible array of rides, slides, and water-soaked play areas into a manageable, family-friendly space. It’s the kind of place where kids of all ages can happily entertain themselves for hours, leaving parents with a smile (and perhaps a chance to relax!).
This summer, get ready for a journey back in time with Splash Zone’s brand new interactive dino-themed attraction! While specific details about this exciting new adventure are making their way to eager visitors, we anticipate a thrilling experience where young explorers can delve into a world of prehistoric wonders, perhaps unearthing fossils, navigating ancient landscapes, and encountering a variety of friendly (or not-so-friendly!) dinosaurs. It’s bound to add a whole new layer of excitement to your waterpark day!
Of course, all your cherished favorites are back and ready for action. Feel the rush of the FlowRider continuous surf wave pool, where you can test your surfing or bodyboarding skills on an endless wave. And no trip to Splash Zone is complete without experiencing the sheer joy (and massive splash!) of The Giant Bucket, which unleashes a deluge of water every few minutes, drenching delighted crowds below. Beyond these highlights, you’ll find everything from thrilling body flumes and twisting tube slides to interactive play structures like Hurricane Island, where kids can control their own water cannons and sprays. For the littlest adventurers, the Zoe Zone offers a gentle, shallow area perfect for infants and toddlers.
Families consistently flock to Splash Zone because of its perfect balance – it’s large enough to offer diverse entertainment but compact enough that you won’t get lost or overwhelmed. It’s the ideal spot for a day of non-stop aquatic fun right on the iconic Wildwoods boardwalk.
