Wild Wild Wet

Wild Wild Wet is the 2nd largest water theme park in Singapore. It is located at NTUC Downtown East in Pasir Ris, Singapore.

Expansion plans

When the former Escape Theme Park ceased operation on 26 November 2011, the site was used to make way for a bigger Water Park and Costa Sands Resort. Wild Wild Wet was closed from 23 July till 1 November 2012 for renovations that includes new rides and attractions.^[1] Wild Wild Wet was expanded to 3.8 hectares, approximately the size of five football fields which will double the original size and feature six new rides and attractions which will open in end-2016. NTUC Club said admission fees are expected to go up slightly due to inflation and increasing operational costs.^[2] The new rides have since been opened up to the public.

Thrilling Rides

The Waterworks^[3](Dueling Body Slides)

• Slam your way through wacky curves and crazy turnings with The Waterworks, the high-speed flume ride that makes a maze look like  child's play! This twisty ride comes in two flavours: open and covered body slides, each with its own unique route and distinctive angles. With so many variables to play with, The Waterworks is perfect for friendly races to see who can hit the landing pool first! Familiarise yourself with the turnings and develop different techniques to improve your speed! Here's a hint: lying down makes you go faster!

Torpedo^[4] (Body Slide)

• Experience free-falling from four storeys high and twist and turn on Torpedo! You never know G-Force can be this fun! The first of its kind in Singapore, the all-new Torpedo ejects you from an 18-metre-high capsule right into a heart-stopping free fall, which propels you straight into a manic trajectory of hair raising twist and turns at mind-numbing speed of up to 70km/hr. Get set for jar-dropping, hair raising and adrenaline-pumping adventures at Torpedo.

Free Fall^[5] (Body Slide)

• To continue bringing you exhilarating thrills at the next new attractions at Wild Wild Wet, Free Fall will be temporarily closed from 22 May 2017. But you will not be left disappointed as we will continue to bring an overload of fun with The Woosh. An inflatable dual-lane body slide, you can slide down the entire length of 50m from a height of 4.5m, competing with a friend to slide down faster.

Ular-Lah^[6] (Family Raft Slide)

• The first raft slide in Southeast Asia, Ular-Lah is a super flume ride that offers you a chance to brave the rapids with five other companions. Ideal for thrill and adrenaline seekers, it's the closest thing you'll ever experience next to white water rafting! Be the first to race to a spectacular finish in the landing pool, but don't be disappointed if it's over too soon. You can always reward yourself with another ride!

Royal Flush^[7] (Family Raft Slide)

• Asia' first hybrid ride featuring both the Behemoth BOWL40 and TornadoWAVE! Holler your lungs out as you drop into the ginormous bowl and take the curves at crazy speeds! 

Slide Up^[8] (Halfpipe-Slide)

• Imagine plunging down a four-storey ramp, accelerating until you hit the deck and skimming across to soar on the opposite side. Now repeat that several times until your momentum runs out! Ever wished you could skateboard like a pro? Here's your chance to do so on a platform slicked with water for that extra kick! Powered by gravity and kinetic energy, the Slide Up is a cool way to indulge your need for speed. But just remember there's always room for improvement. So grab an inflatable raft, settle in and start shoving off!

Tsunami^[9] (Wave Pool)

• Tsunami combines the best of swimming pools and the sea to give you the excitement of the surf under controlled conditions. Without the hassle of choppy swells or dangerous currents, even kids can feel totally at ease in 

the water.

Take your time to enjoy these waves as you lie back and soak up the sun and fun.

Gentle Rides

Shiok River^[10] (Lazy River)

• Spanning 335 metres in length, Shiok River skirts the perimeter of the park, meandering through a variety of lush landscape that will leave you soothed and invigorated. Take a breather, go with the flow and let the trip wash away your cares. It's a great way to escape from all the commotion and noise of everyday life. Tubes are optional for those who prefer to travel at their own pace. You can snooze your way through a dream-filled journey that will last as long as you want. Or take a quick dip to recharge your batteries before plunging into some of our more exciting rides again!

Jacuzzi^[11] (Jacuzzi)

• Fluid jets to rub and ease the kinks in your muscles plus a bubbly massage that soothes your aches. Don't recall water ever feeling this good? Unwind in the Jacuzzi, our answer to tired bodies in need of recharging. A good way to stop and catch your breath, it can even be the centre of a family event. The unusual water action goes a long way towards keeping the little ones occupied, while adults can take the opportunity to catch up with one another. So choose a nice spot, sit back and let the water do its work. Literally.

Children's Play Area

Professor's Playground^[12] (Water Playground)

• Looking for a place that will generate hours of fun for your kids? What can be a better way to rivet a kid's attention than the double attraction of a playground located in a swimming pool? Designed around the theme of an experimental laboratory, Professor's Playground packs a myriad of classic fixtures such as slides, ladders, water cannons and fountains. At a comfortable depth of 0.3 metres, it's safe even for the most zealous child keen on exploring and taking charge of his/her surroundings. One thing's for sure, playing in the water has never been this fun!

Yippie!^[13] (Baby Play Area)

• Hoping to introduce your littlest one to the joy of playing with water? Wild Wild Wet has the perfect answer for you! Yippee! is a shallow sloshing area filled with soft play equipment designed to provide a safe and fun environment for toddlers. Other than generating hours of amusement for your kid, it's also a primer course to the intermediate Professor's Playground next door! But don't be in a hurry to decide when your kid is ready to move on, because fun can always be found in the simplest of things!

Kidz zone^[14](Multiple Gentle Slides)

• Give the young ones a taste of a wilder world at the all-new kids' water paradise that is filled with exhilarating pint-sized versions of the big rides!

Splash Play^[15](Children Play Area)

• Families with young ones can enjoy the all-new Splash Play where little ones can slosh around the low water with fun jets and water sprays.
