CULLMAN — It’s extra hot outside this summer, but now there’s a new way to cool off: WildWater in Cullman. With something for just about everyone, North Alabama’s newest water park is the perfect place to make a summer splash.

The 12-acre water park features RipTide, a 22,000 square-foot wave pool, 18 water slides, and a splash area for younger visitors. WildWater also has four splash pad stations throughout the park, 15 cabanas and 9 extra-large funbrellas to provide shade, and a giant LED wall.

Guests can also float down the Drift River for some relaxation.

WildWater offers full-service lunch and dinner options at the Oasis Bistro; quick service items at The Gully; frozen treats from Iceberg, a refurbished 1973 Airstream Sovereign; and refreshing adult beverages at Breakers.
