Tired of lying in the sun at your hotel? Work on your tan while you zip down a water slide or float along the lazy river at Wet 'n Wild in Cancun. Located at km. 25 of the Hotel Zone, this all-inclusive water park in Cancun offers excitement for all ages.

The Bubble Space Bowl is an elevated chute that you can drop through at 30 mph into the giant bowl below, or you can zoom down the Kamikaze water slide, which is over 18 meters high. If you haven’t had enough of the Caribbean Sea’s waves while spending time at the beach, take a soak in the Wave Pool, where the waves are up to 3 feet high.  Once you’ve taken on these thrill rides, relax in an inner tube on the 320-meter lazy river. There's even a Kids Park with miniature versions of the big Wet 'n Wild rides. Other daily activities may include water balloon fights, volleyball and basketball.

Food, drinks (alcoholic and non-alcoholic), bathrooms and showers are included with the price of your ticket. Food normally includes hamburgers, pizza, chicken nuggets, hot dogs, ice cream, etc. Admission does not include lockers, towels or inner tubes. Wet 'n Wild is open 7 days a week from 9:30 am to 5:00 pm. There isn’t much shade, so bring a lot of 45 SPF sunblock with you. If you go on a weekday, you’ll practically have the place to yourself which means no waiting in line for the slides!
