Wild Rivers Waterpark - (949) 788-0808

I write this review purely as a warning. WR is a great place to enjoy your summer. We have been season pass holders for years. Lately, the customer base has changed drastically. Crime within the park has started occurring. The security staff is ill equipped to handle it. Do not for any reason leave unattended bags in the children's area of the park(river area), This is where the thieves are targeting. It is not just petty theft. They steal the obvious.......wallets, ipods, cash,etc. THEY ALSO STEAL CARS. The cameras in the parking lot don't work. They take the car keys out to the lot and just start pressing until they find it. They took mine one afternoon between 3 and 5 PM two weeks after stealing four or five other peoples personal bags. My car ended up stripped in Santa Ana. SAPD does not even print the cars when recovered so the thieves can steal with impugnity. I grew up in SA so I can tell you that the gang tattooed guys I saw at WR that day were from Santa Ana. Use a locker even if you only bring car keys into the park. My bag only had a small amount of cash and car keys. They like Chevys.....big ones,....trucks, suburbans, avalanches and tahoes. Good Luck and stay attentive.

I take my children to Wild Rivers almost 3 times a month if not more! I know I can take them there and we are guaranteed a safe and fun time. The rides are great the water is clean the lines aren't too long and the staff there is soo helpful!

A small step up from Hurricane Harbor and a giant step down for mankind... err... from Raging Waters. There are some good slides, but overall, it's pretty dinky and by the scent of the lazy river, it seems as though some intertubed guests got a little too lazy.
