Summer Waves Waterpark on Jekyll Island

The Two RV Gypsies: Full-Time RVers

spent a day at Summer Waves Waterpark
on Jekyll Island, Georgia - Monday, May 24, 2010

Summer Wave Water Park had more than a million gallons of splashing water fun with 11 acres of water slides, water thrills, and food. Not a real big park, but it was a nice, fun park.


Below: Frantic Atlantic - The Rolling Waves Pool

Below: The Kiddie Pool with only 12 inches of bubbling water	Below: The Lazy River on Turtle Creek

Below: Pirates Passage: Riders can go single or double on a tube in a totally-enclosed speed flume that jets riders in darkness over three breathtaking humps. Then land in the shallow pool at the bottom and discover your bathing suit gave you a wedgie. Karen Duquette did this, but Lee Duquette did not. He has never been a big fan of waterslides.

Below: See all the people going up the stairs carrying the tubes. A great ride, fast, but short - and lots of stairs to climb while carrying a tube.

Below: Nature's Revenge no tubes on this slide and not quite so many stairs

Below: A giant tipping water bucket in the Splash Zone

Below: Lee Duquette got drenched by the giant water bucket

Below: Karen Duquette rode down the Force 3 inner tube flume (the fat white slide) as well as on the blue slides. The blue slides are completely in the dark and went very fast. One of the blue slides had one straight drop, the other blue slide curved on the way down. Both were very fast and gave Karen Duquette a big bathing suit wedgie when she hit the shallow water at the bottom.

NOTE: You cannot bring food or drink into the park, but they sold soda, water, salads, hot dogs and pretty good subs, etc. Life Jackets were provided free of charge, but not mandatory. Do NOT bring your own tubes. This is a total non-smoking park.
