We had the best time celebrating a birthday weekend at Wet "N" Wild. The premium deluxe package includes the locker, souvenir towel, da flowrider, soft drinks all day and a delicious buffet lunch which I definitely would recommend. No outside food or beverages are allowed in, they check bags! Da flowrider was so fun, it was hilarious watching my friends on it! Will definitely go back, Can't wait to spend another fun filled day at Wet "N" Wild.
