PARK INFORMATION

When you think summer, think Wet ‘n Wild. The largest water park in both the Carolinas is the place to cool off, get sun and have fun. With over 36 rides and attractions, there's something for everyone…from mild to wild…from tots to seniors. It's family friendly and the young kids (and mom and dad, too) will have a great time in Splash Island and Happy Harbor, our two large children's areas. When you're ready to kick back and relax after enjoying the over 5 million gallons of water fun, Wet ‘n Wild Emerald Pointe offers an abundance of lounge chairs and shaded areas.

Rain Check Policy

When you go to Wet'n Wild Emerald Pointe you know you are in for the absolute wettest thrills you can find anywhere in the Carolina's. Sometimes it storms at the park. And when that brings lightning, the park closes the rides and pools. But, if that happens and you decide to leave for the day, you get a rain check to come back for another visit to the park. If the park closes after 4pm, you will recieve a PM raincheck.

So if it was me, I would head out to Wet'n Wild Emerald Pointe today. Then, I would hope it storms before the day is out. That way, I would score another visit to a world class water park.
