One of Water World’s most iconic and popular areas will close this month for rebuilding, but fans still have a chance to say goodbye at a public celebration for the decades-old fixture.
The 50-acre water park in Federal Heights will close Calypso Cove on Monday, Aug. 25, and rebuild it for future seasons. The themed area, described by Water World as a Caribbean Family Adventure, is aimed at young kids and their parents with attractions such as Pirates Plunge, Wally World, Screamin’ Mimi and the grass hut-themed Caribbean Family Adventure play structure.
For those nostalgic about its four-decade history, a “farewell celebration” for Calypso Cove will be held from noon to 4:30 p.m. on Sunday, Aug. 24, after which it will close for good in its current form.
The current area will “make way for an exciting new chapter at Water World,” officials said in a statement. “These changes will bring fresh attractions and modern amenities that will better serve families, groups, and guests of all ages for years to come.”
More details on the rehab and its new attractions will be announced in the fall, the company said. There is no planned reopening date at the moment.
