Splash Around at Hurricane Bay May 29

Are you ready to cool off yet? When temperatures rise, so do tempers! You might feel tired, aggravated and annoyed, and that's before you even get out of bed on a hot day. But there is good news, Hurricane Bay is open again. Head out to enjoy opening day and splash around in the cool water. Because if you can't beat the heat here, you can't do it anywhere.

Splashing Around

Hurricane Bay is packed with different rides, attractions and areas. Hurricane Bay is well-known for being part of Kentucky Kingdom, but this is a very large and jam-packed water park that's worth visiting even if you never go to Kentucky Kingdom.

There's a ton of stuff to do here, from the winding Adventure River to the thrilling Deluge water slide. Head to the wave lagoon for a gentle swimming experience or see if you've got what it takes to brave the big drop on Deep Water Dive. Head into the splash zone or the tornado to get shaken up or chill out at Big Surf. Hurricane Bay has more than 70 rides and attractions, including six roller coasters for the thrill seekers out there.

With the park officially open, you can come back to see it all whenever you want. So be there on opening day and start to cool off. Hurricane Bay is at 937 Phillips Lane. That's just minutes away from Audubon Park. This is a much quieter place than Hurricane Bay but it's also a pretty good place to cool off. Find out for yourself this May.
