4 Epic Waterparks in Delaware To Take Your Summer To A Whole New Level

During the summer, thousands and thousands of tourists come to Delaware to enjoy our amazing beaches. Of course, Delawareans join the crowds, too! Delaware's beaches are among the best in the world, and we don't want to miss out. Half the fun of living in the First State is access to sand, salt water, and a sea breeze.

But... sometimes, you want to splash and play away from the sand! Whether the ocean is a little rough or you just want the thrill of a great waterslide, these Delaware water parks are the key to making your beach vacation complete.

1. Whitewater Mountain at Midway Speedway Park

18645 Coastal Hwy, Rehoboth Beach, DE 19971

The best part of Midway Speedway is the water park, White Water Mountain!

The slides here might be the fastest water slides in Delaware.

There's also a great lazy river, and a kid's pool for smaller thrillseekers.

2. Thunder Lagoon Waterpark

38960 Island St, Fenwick Island, Delaware

The 2800 square foot Activity Pool, plus an additional 800 square foot Kid's Pool, makes this the best family water park in the state.

Six lightning-fast slides include a black hole slide and a double slide, so thrill-seekers will have the time of their lives.

Everyone loves the tipping Viking Ship, though... watch your back or the next 250 gallons will be dumped on you!

3. Jungle Jim's Waterpark

36944 Country Club Rd, Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, DE 19971

Jungle Jim's is Delaware's largest water park.

The Wave Pool "Sprayground" is one of the main attractions! Guests love the family-friendly activities.

And, well, Jungle Jim's has a lot more than just water slides going on.

Visit the park on Wednesdays from 11am-3pm to check out the mobile petting zoo and meet Roodini, the baby Kangaroo! I don't think he's a fan of the lazy river.

4. Killens Pond State Park

5025 Killens Pond Rd, Felton, DE 19943

Killen's Pond State Park offers hiking, paddling, a nature center, and, you guessed it, a large waterpark.

They've got big slides, small slides, and a great activity pool!

This waterpark is a quiet escape from the heat in Kent County, so be sure to visit this summer.

These great Delaware waterparks are some of the best spots to cool off from the summer sun! If you need to cool off but don't want to dive into the water just yet, you might want to check out our Delaware Ice Cream Trail! Chill out while you enjoy some of the First State's finest frozen treats.
