Knott's Berry Farm announces a massive expansion to their waterpark, Soak City!

Knott's Soak City OC 2017 Expansion
An exciting expansion, renovations and new state-of-the-art additions are coming to Waterpark next summer. The expansion project will introduce two new water slide towers.

Shore Break- Four of the slides on the 60-foot tall tower will start with guests climbing inside an Aqua-Launch chamber where they will wait anxiously for the floor to drop out from underneath their feet, sending them into a high-speed, almost vertical free fall through a series of flat loops and S-curves in a translucent flume. Shore Break will also feature dueling tube slides that will zip riders through an enchanting series of drops and turns.

The Wedge- An open air family raft ride fitting up to six people navigating twists, turns, and surprise drops.
