The 27-acre waterpark – named one of the 10 Best Waterparks to Visit in 2016 by Fodor’s Travel magazine – includes mroe than 20 attractions. Among them:

▪ Blackbeard’s Revenge, a six-story tall waterslide complex

There’s now a separately gated entrace for the waterpark, too.

It’s also easier and more convenient for park goers just wanting to visit Carolina Harbor! We’ve added a new separately-gated waterpark entrance- all part of a best day ever experience! What makes it even better? Entry to the waterpark is included with the price of Carowinds admission!
