Wet’n Wild Cancun reopens as Venture Park after US$6m redevelopment
Wet’n Wild Cancun has undergone a US$6m (€5.5m, £4.3m) redevelopment to officially reopen as Ventura Park and expand its offering beyond water with a host of new features.
The attraction in Cancun, Mexico, which has operated for nearly 20 years, is now run by Ventura Entertainment, which consists of a business conglomerate made up of Selvátia, Dolphinaris and Entreteparq.
Prior to its development, the waterpark received 250,000 visitors annually made up of a mix of tourists and local visitors.
Retaining elements such as the waterpark’s wave pool, slides and lazy river, Ventura Park offers a new Caribbean theme with a restaurant and beach club by the sea for relaxation.
A number of new dry rides and attractions, including go-karts, zip lines, hanging bridge tours, VR games and amusement rides are now included. Split into seven “worlds”, the park also features a kid’s pool, swim-up pool bar and a dolphin swimming experience.
“We want our guests to view Ventura Park as their number one option,” said Guido Benassini, director of Developments and New Projects at Ventura Entertainment. “
“Ventura Park offers all sorts of options when it comes to entertainment: adrenaline, laughs, challenges, contact with aquatic mammals, special moments, a spectacular view of the Caribbean Sea, but most of all it will be a place where unforgettable experiences happen for all visitors, friends and family alike.”
