In a state where water park competition is fierce, Wet ‘n’ Wild SplashTown, one of the brand’s many parks, has flourished by updating and expanding its offerings. The latest ride to open here is the six-story Alien Chaser, which takes two riders through dark tunnels and around alien-themed saucers. Other options include the Big Kahuna raft ride, an interactive children’s section and a FlowRider. Stay until dusk on select Fridays to catch a free movie at the Wild Wave Pool.
