Six Flags Kings Island

Soak City
Soak City opened in 1989 as WaterWorks, 17 years after Kings Island opened. In 1997, Kings Island expanded the water park to 15 acre by adding the wave pool (Surfside Bay; now known as Breakers Bay), and a new children's water playground. The following year, the FlowRider, and Pipeline Paradise opened as Wipeout Beach. Six years later, WaterWorks was renamed to Crocodile Dundee's Boomerang Bay Waterpark (later simplified to Boomerang Bay Waterpark). In 2012, the water park was re-branded to Cedar Fair's Soak City. All of the water slides and the lazy river were refurbished. An additional wave pool was also constructed.
