Wipeout, Theme park ride in Gold Coast, Australia.
Wipeout is a whitewater raft ride at Dreamworld in Gold Coast, Queensland. The attraction carries groups in circular rafts through an engineered course featuring water channels, rock formations, and enclosed water passages.
The ride opened in 1986 as part of Dreamworld's original Gold Rush Country section. It has remained a key attraction in the park's water ride lineup since its debut.
The ride combines Australian outback themes with water adventure elements, reflecting the regional appreciation for outdoor water activities.
Wear clothes that can get wet, as the ride produces significant water splashes throughout the course. Arriving early in the day typically offers shorter queues than mid-afternoon.
The ride incorporates realistic rock formations that conceal sophisticated water engineering systems beneath the surface. Most visitors do not realize how much technical infrastructure supports the splashing and water flow they experience.
