SAN ANTONIO — Aquatica, Texas at SeaWorld San Antonio is opening a new water playground in 2024.
Tikitapu Splash has over 15,000 square feet for guests to splash through, get soaked, all while cooling off from the Texas heat.
It's good clean fun for the young and young at heart.
“At Aquatica San Antonio, we are excited to make a big splash with the all-new Tikitapu Splash,” said David Skelton, Vice President of Aquatica. “Our commitment to fun and innovation has resulted in a 15,000 square foot water playland extravaganza that will give the entire family even more ways to get wet and have fun.”
The outdoor playland will feature three giant buckets that will dump over 1,325 gallons of water onto those below waiting to be refreshed. The play area will also feature four exciting waterslides and 104 new spray and play elements including multiple geysers, colorful water cannons, and gushing waterspouts for maximum water fun.
The new playground will be located right next to to Whanau Waters, which is a series of shallow water pools perfect for tiny tots.
SeaWorld is set to open Catapult Falls, the world’s first launched flume coaster in the spring of 2024.
The first-of-its-kind ride will be the perfect combination of a flume ride and a coaster, giving guests the heart-pounding thrill of high speeds with the floating and coasting of a boat on a river.
