Where the action leaps off the screen. Literally!
In our new 4-D theater, the fun comes at you from every direction. You’ll feel every splash, duck for flying objects, even smell what’s onscreen. Part eye-popping movie, part hair-raising ride and totally unforgettable fun for the whole family!
Now playing in 2011: the family favorite “Pirates!” starring Leslie Nielsen™ 4-D Movie!
The lazy river with a few added surprises.
Ahh, this is the life… drifting gently along on an inner tube, soaking in the warm sunshine. But don’t get too comfortable. There’s no telling when you’ll encounter a pesky geyser or a cascading waterfall along your journey. And yes, there’s a good chance you’ll get wet. Enjoy the trip alone, in a single-person raft, or experience it together on a family-size tube.
Game on!
Hey, you can’t spend the whole day in the sun, right? That’s when it’s time to head into any one of Noah’s THREE great arcades to battle Space Invaders, show off your mad Skee Ball skills and maybe even win some prizes. Who knows? The kids may even let you win a game.
A Floation of Education.
Ever wonder how we create the waves in our wave pools? Want to see the truly awful 80’s hairstyles in our showcase of “historic” Noah’s Ark TV commercials? Head on over to the Ark-ology 101 building. It’s a great place for your group or family to meet and learn about Noah’s Ark history, the physics behind some of our rides and so much more. Not to be missed!
Take a ride on the mild side.
Not a thrill-seeker? Or just prefer a comfortable cruise to the latest hair-raising, white-knuckle screamer? No problem. Simply head over to Bahama Falls and take your pick of three tube slides that offer a slightly milder ride. All three slides also empty into Adventure River so you can continue your relaxing journey as long as you want.
Many enter. Few return.
The questions surrounding the Bermuda Triangle are as ancient and mysterious as time itself. Questions like “Which of the three thrilling tube slides should I choose to go down?” And “Do we want to ride alone or on a double-rider raft?” Compelling questions, indeed. And though there’s no telling what you’ll encounter around each winding turn, one thing is for sure… it’s gonna be a blast!
Surf’s up! Actually, here, the surf is always up!
In the Midwest, it’s not easy to get to the ocean. So we brought the ocean to the Midwest! In the Big Kahuna Wave Pool, you can bodysurf ocean-sized waves, peaking every 10 minutes. Tubes are also available for those who prefer to soak in the rays as well as the waves.
Big Kahuna knows what the little ones love!
Slides. Swings. Water cannons. Fountains. Kid-sized tube rides. The Big Kahuna Kiddie Area is like a waterpark within a waterpark, designed just for the younger ones. And parents will love it, too, because the area is ringed with comfy beach chairs that offer great views of the entire playground.
You Can’t Scream Long Enough!
At over 1/4-mile long, Black Anaconda is America’s Most Thrilling Watercoaster—a diabolical combination of water slide and rollercoaster. Stare pure terror in the eye before Black Anaconda swallows you whole, sending you spiraling down at 30 miles per hour. Then defy gravity as rushing waters push you up the creature’s six humps and lash you about in its dark coils. Black Anaconda lets you experience thrills on a whole new scale!
One more reason to be afraid of the dark.
If a waterslide with mind-bending twists and turns have you a little concerned, don’t worry. You won’t even see them coming inside the total darkness of Black Thunder. Of course, that’s the fun! Choose from four different slides, including the Twin Twisters and Witches Gulch, each offering their own unique thrills. And be sure to watch for the special effects, waterfalls and other surprises along the way!
There’s no telling who you’ll bump into.
When you board the Bumper Boats, it’s every Dad, Mom, child and friend for themselves. Because once the bumping begins, all rules are off—sneak attacks, head-on collisions, it’s all fair game here. Just remember, payback is a… blast!
The family adventure with a twist. Several, in fact.
Round up the family and set out for adventure on your circular 5-person raft. Everyone can clearly see everyone else, so do your best to hide that look of surprise when the raft turns and you go backward into that hard turn in the rapids! Offering more than 700 feet of twists and fun, Congo Bongo offers an unforgettable ride for the whole family!
Noah’s Haunting Adventure. You’re not a scaredy-cat, are you?
For thousands of years, the crypt of a cruel ancient king has remained sealed inside a foreboding cavern. In search of his fabled lost treasure, a team of archaeologists has discovered the entrance before disappearing without a trace. Do you dare follow in their footsteps? Once you’re inside, you may find there’s no getting out… and eternity is a long time to scream!
Team together. Then scream together!
Want a ride your whole group or family can go on together? Embark on Dark Voyage. Set off on a 4-person raft into total darkness to encounter the twisting, turning, mammoth rapids and other surprises within. And don’t be afraid to scream all you want—it’s not like anybody will see you!
The hardest ride in the Park to leave behind.
Round and round you go where you stop… well, that’s up to you. Just settle into your personal tube and let your worries drift away as you gently wind along this twisting circular river. There’s even a current to move you along, ‘cause you know, actually having to paddle along would just be too much effort.
Here, the fun is endless, too!
Located adjacent to the Endless River, this shallow water area just for younger kids offers special kid-sized swings and slides that will be sure to keep them laughing.
Will you get wet? Oh, yes. Very, very wet.
Ever wonder what it would be like to go over Niagara Falls with 20 of your closest friends? Well, apparently our ride designer did. Flash Flood will send you and your friends over the edge and plummeting down into the water below, creating a mammoth wave that sprays out in all directions. After the ride, don’t forget to watch it again from the bridge… it’s a great way to “soak it all in!”
A mini-rollercoaster that’s still big on thrills!
Go Gator offers real rollercoaster thrills at just the right size and speed for the little ones. Be sure to have your camera ready— Go Gator offers lots of opportunities to take the perfect snapshot of your wee one as they go around time and again!
New in 2010!
Arrrrrrr you ready to captain a pirate ship?
Then step right up to the new Hooligan’s Harbor, matey! You and your kids can choose your own remote-controlled pirate schooners, then battle it out on the high seas. Of course, win or lose, you’re still the one who’ll be buying the ice cream later! Requires token purchase, not included with admission.
Where the fun just jumps out at you.
In the Jumping Waters area, located at the base of the Sting Ray double slide, the fun comes at you from every direction. That’s because you never know where the next stream of water will leap out at you. But you can be sure of two things—you will get wet and you will have a blast!
Mini-golf that’s big on fun.
Wanna grab some shade and dry off for a while? Try hitting the links over at the Jungle Mini-Golf Course. You’ll find 18 challenging holes waiting for you to test your skills. Just remember—high score buys the ice cream! Putters available in all sizes.
Welcome to the Jungle… It’s all fun and games!
It’s the combination mat and tube slide complex so fun, there’s even been a song written about it (at least we like to think!) On Jungle Rapids, you’ll experience winding twists and turns, fast accelerations and gentle cruising stretches. Yep, this one’s got it all.
Another reason good friends are great to hang on to!
Grab your friends or family, pile into the 4-person circular raft and hang on tight…to each other or to well, anything! Kowabunga sends you all plummeting down more than 500-feet over three stomach-dropping humps. At least you’ll all feel a lot closer by the time you reach the bottom!
Part octopus. Part submarine. All fun.
We know one thing your little explorers will discover while playing in this unique kids activity center—FUN! Kids can climb the tentacles of the octopus, peek out the portholes of the submarine, frolic under the water geysers and more!
One pool. Dozens of ways to have fun.
2 lily pad walks. 2 cable drops. 3 cannonball chutes. 2 body slides. A jumping rock. A shallow swim area. Get the idea? Yep, there’s a whole lot to do in just one pool area. That’s why we call it “Paradise”.
10 stories up. 5 seconds down.
By the time you realize what you’re really in for, it’s already too late. The Point of No Return offers a jaw-dropping, hair-raising, nearly-vertical plunge that literally blurs the line between “thrill” and “pure terror”. Yeah, it’s that good.
New in 2010!
The ride that will turn your idea of waterslides upside down.
Ten stories high. 400-feet long. An initial drop that sends you plummeting down at more than 50-feet per second. Oh, and did we mention America’s first nearly vertical waterslide loop? Meet the Scorpion’s Tail. Yeah, this might sting a little.
Kind of like the “bunnyhill” of waterslides.
Got a young one who’s a little beyond the kiddie slides but not quite ready for the big monsters? Slidewinders is just the ticket. You can choose from five different body slides, each offering its own gentler twists and turns. And because double-riding is allowed, you can go along for the ride right next to your child… until, you know, they’re too old for that.
Like its namesake, this one may surprise you!
Sting rays are known for blending into their surroundings, then getting you when you least expect it. Similarly, this ride may look on the gentle side. But when you experience that first vertical drop… well, there’s a reason it’s consistently ranked as one of the scariest rides in the Park! As the only double slide of its kind in the country, you can choose to ride single or double, facing your partner (so you can watch each other scream!)
An island of fun for the little ones!
Noah’s also offers big thrills for the little squirts! The Tadpole Bay Kiddie Playzone features a giant 8-foot dump bucket, 4 kiddie water slides and over 50 different swings, dancing springs and more! And because all the action stays in one area designed for maximum visibility and safety, parents will love Tadpole Bay as much as kids!
When it comes to thrills, why not dive in head-first?
Going feet first? That’s kid stuff. No, for real thrills, it’s time to face your fears and take The Plunge– the only extreme head-first waterslide in the Midwest. Race a friend or go it alone on one of two side-by-side slides that will leave you screaming for more!
Our second wavepool. Because one just isn’t enough.
If Big Kahuna is the “East Coast”, The Wave is the West Coast. Our second wavepool, The Wave offers more relaxing waves along with our very own Swirl River—perfect for soaking in the rays while just drifting gently along.
A Whole New Dimension of Fun!
Are you prepared to slide through the portal into the World’s Largest Bowl Ride? Time Warp is the thrilling water ride that throws time for a loop. Several, in fact.

After all, this is one experience where time definitely flies.
