Right across the street from Knott’s Berry Farm in Buena Park, California and only 15 minutes away from Disneyland is the ultra fun, wet and wild Soak City USA water park.  If you or your family is really into water sports, Soak City is the place to be!  Usually open from the third week of May until Labor Day, Soak City is just what you need to cool off from the scorching Southern California summer heat.  This water park is practically it’s own city with high speed water slides, both relaxing and swimming inner tube excursions as well as as gigantic 750,000 gallon Tidal Wave pool where you can body surf and boogie board just like you were at the beach.  Soak City USA is great for kids of all ages.  Children visiting the park may not be tall enough to go on many of the slide attractions (the minimum heighth on most slides is 42 inches and a minimum age of 5 years old), the park has a wonderful pool and activity lagoon area to give them a fun but safe experience.   The water park is reasonably priced at $20 for children 12 and under and $29 for adults.  You will need to pay the admission fee regardless if you are planning on utilizing the park or simply watching your family.  If you are hungry, there are several snack shops and hot dog bars within the park, but you are not allowed to bring in your own picnic lunch to eat inside of the park.  You are allowed, however, to bring in a small cooler with water bottles or hydrating drinks.  There are locker rentals so you do not have to carry your bags and towels around the park all day and so your valuables will be stored safely.  The cost is $22 for a large locker and $7 for a medium sized locker as well as a $5 deposit fee.
