Beat the Arizona Heat at This Yuma Water Park With an Epic Lazy River

Summer days in Arizona are incredibly long and also quite hot. Under the scorching heat of the relentless sun, cooling off is necessary. So, when you find a place to hang out during these hot-weather months that's incredibly fun and where you can cool off, well, that sounds like a place I'd like to be every day! Welcome to Waylon's Water World. Featuring the longest lazy river in Arizona, you'll want to spend as much time as possible here this summer.

Whether or not you live in Yuma or plan to visit, you should spend some time this summer at Waylon's Water World. Not only will you cool off under the super hot Arizona sun, but you'll have fun, too!

This super fun water park is located at 4446 E County 10th St. in Yuma. It boasts having one of the largest lazy rivers in Arizona.

You can literally spend the entire day in a tube floating along the lazy river. It pretty much never ends as you float around and around and around as it curves through the other water park attractions.

You can also grab a drink from either the Lunchbox concession stand or the Splash Bar to enjoy as you float along the river. And while the river is our favorite part of the park, there are many other attractions here for summer fun.

For the littles, there's Tot's Swimming Pool with shallow water and a shorter water slide. There's also Syd's Zone, a watery playground of sorts.

And then there are the long and fast water slides along with the Super Bowl Attraction in which you spin around and around until you drop into the water below. It's quite exhilarating!

You can also rent a cabana while you're here to get some shade from the sun. And, perhaps, you'll head on over to Z Fun Factory next door for mini golf, batting cages, bumper boats, and more. This sounds like some epic summer fun to me!
