Knott's declares the start of the summer with the season opening of Knott's Soak City Waterpark. The 15-acre water adventure park is adjacent to - but a separate admission from - Knott's Berry Farm theme park.

Guests can catch a ride down more than 20 different speed, tube, and body slides,v catch a wave at Tidal Wave Bay, a state-of-the-art wave pool where the surf crests over four feet high or dare to take a rip-roaring raft ride on The Wedge.

The water park also features Gremmie Lagoon, a hands-on water playground for younger kids and families. Those just looking to relax can float down Sunset River, a 1,780-foot, slow-moving waterway that is one of the longest lazy rivers in the country.

Knott's Soak City Waterpark is open for the Summer 2025 season from May 17 select dates through September 1.

 See Waterpark Information for guidelines.

Please note that Knott's Soak City Waterpark is a separate admission from Knott's Berry Farm.
