Coral Craze and Kelp Kraze are two interconnected new water slide attractions debuting in 2027 at Knott’s Soak City Waterpark. Respectively the new attractions will be the west coast’s first triple Family Flying SAUCER attraction and North America’s first double Family HIVE attraction.

Here’s the latest you need to know about new attractions coming to Knott’s Soak City Waterpark

What to Expect

Replacing the current Shore Break slide complex, the all-new attractions manufactured by ProSlide promises two innovative slide experiences making their West Coast and North American debuts, respectively.

Coral Craze

Leading the way is Coral Craze, the West Coast’s first triple Family FlyingSAUCER attraction. Designed for up to five riders per raft, Coral Craze will launch families into a high-speed adventure that feel as if riders are on a world-class ski course, which the design was inspired by the manufacturer’s skiing heritage. The attraction’s signature FlyingSAUCER element will feature steeply banked turns that accelerate riders through sweeping, gravity-defying maneuvers, creating a thrilling sensation unlike any other water slide experience.

Kelp Kraze

Just on the other side of the raft conveyor, guests will discover Kelp Kraze, North America’s first double and the West Coast’s only Family HIVE attraction. This immersive five-person, family raft ride will send riders twisting through a revolutionary series of tight turns and spiraling helix elements designed to create the feeling that the slide itself is revolving around them. As rafts race along the outer walls, riders will experience exhilarating G-forces while enjoying panoramic views through the attraction’s translucent walls, offering a one-of-a-kind perspective of the park below. Kelp Kraze will also be the longest Family HIVE ride in the United States.
