Dry Town Water Park

Dry Town Water Park, Water park in Palmdale, California.

Dry Town Water Park is a six-acre water park at 3850 East Avenue S in southeast Palmdale, on the grounds of the Palmdale Oasis Park & Recreation Center. Its four main attractions are Tower A, a 35-foot structure with three slides emptying into a three-foot splashdown pool; Tower B, holding the four-lane Dusty's Mine Shaft Racer; Little Miner's Camp, a 6,000-square-foot children's water playground; and the 925-foot Big Rock River, also called The Lazy River.

Dry Town Water Park opened in 2006, operated by the City of Palmdale on the grounds of the Palmdale Oasis Park & Recreation Center. Tower B, home to Dusty's Mine Shaft Racer, was not part of the original opening; the slide encountered problems during its 2011 debut and became fully operational in the 2012 summer season. The city canceled the 2020 season due to COVID-19 restrictions and reopened in 2021 for the park's 15th anniversary season.

The slides carry names from the park's mining theme: Rattler's Revenge, known locally as the red slide, The Wildcatter or yellow slide, and the Devil's Punch Bowl or blue slide. Tower B's racer is Dusty's Mine Shaft Racer, and the children's area is Little Miner's Camp.

The park opens annually from Memorial Day weekend in May through Labor Day in September, with normal hours of 11am to 6pm. Water is heated to 80 °F, which feels cool against Palmdale's high-desert heat, where August highs average 96 °F. Lightning closes the park immediately, and high winds or wildfire smoke can shut attractions or the whole site.

The lifeguard team undergoes evaluations twice each summer by the National Aquatic Safety Company to assess their readiness and attentiveness. These regular inspections reflect the park's commitment to visitor safety.
