This park still has some kinks to work out. The second time I went, only four slides were open in the whole park. Compared to Wet N Wild, I would say this park has a better lazy river and wave pool, it's closer to my house, and less crowded. However, at Wet N Wild there are more slides, overall better rides, and season pass holders get discounts on food. Overall, you get more bang for your buck there. I think the problem with Cowabunga Bay is it isn't finished yet. Give it another year.
