Just across the river from Louisville, Atlantis Water Park has a wave pool, four thrilling waterslides, and a splash area with fountains for younger children. Located in Clarksville, Indiana, Atlantis is a great destination for an affordable, relaxing, and fun summer day.
Wet and wild fun for all ages
The slides (known as Mount Olympus) at Atlantis Water Park come from a ladder. Once you get to the top there are four options; two body slides and two tube slides. One of each is open to the air while the other two are enclosed, adding a dark and suspenseful twist to the excitement. Red inner tubes with slide handles are provided. The height limit is 48 “, so you must be 4 feet tall to ride the slides.
Although inner tubes are provided for the slides, they stay in the games. If you want a tube for the wave pool, single and double tubes are rented.
All ages enjoy playing in the large wave pool (called the Tsunami Sea), which gradually deepens to 5 feet. Every 10 minutes a bell rings, alerting the crowd, as well as the attentive lifeguards, and the waves begin. Moving water is fun with or without an inner tube. Some participants even sit on the shallow end, waiting for the waves to hit them. For young children, life jackets are available for the wave pool, free of charge.
With a maximum depth of 18 “, the children’s area (known as King Neptune’s Cove) is ideal for young children. There are five slides, a crawling tunnel, and cartoon whales and dolphins spraying water. There are sun chairs around the child. area, as well as along the wave pool.
Grabbing a bite to eat
There is a snack bar with hot dogs, pizza, ice cream, nachos, and other delicacies, which vary in price (but nothing too expensive). If you’re trying to keep the cost down, there are picnic tables right outside the door, but be sure to stamp your hand to ensure you can get back inside without paying admission. The packed lunch option is another reason why Atlantis Water Park really is a low-priced option for family fun.
