Rapids Water Park, Water park in Riviera Beach, US.
Rapids Water Park is a water facility in West Palm Beach offering multiple attractions for swimming and play. The park features numerous water slides of varying heights, a slow-moving river channel for relaxation, and a wave-generating pool for different preferences and ages.
The park opened in 1979 as a small facility and grew gradually over the following decades. A major expansion in the early 2000s added new areas and contemporary attractions to meet visitor demand.
The park appeared in the 1997 film Donnie Brasco and was used as a filming location for a music video by rapper Trina. These connections to popular entertainment have made it known as a place for recreation and leisure over the years.
The park is best visited during the warmer months from March through November when all areas are open. Visitors should arrive early to enjoy the most popular attractions before peak crowds arrive.
A special attraction is a water coaster where two guests can race side by side down the slide in competition. This ride offers a thrilling racing experience that is uncommon in most water parks.
