Cooler Sizes & Prohibited Items
Breezing through park entry is as easy as 1-2-3!
For your safety, to expedite arrival & to enhance security screening:
(1) Keep your ice bagged until after bag check. Options include keeping your bulk ice in its packaging (until after Bag Check), placing your ice in bags (such as Ziploc or similar) or using cold packs. For your safety, our Team Members must be able to clearly see all items inside of, and to the bottom of your cooler. If you have loose ice in your cooler, please consult a Water World Team member.
(2) Check your Cooler Size! Cooler sizes are limited and must fit within our front gate cooler sizer units (including wheels and collapsible handles) and must be able to fit inside our security screening equipment. Coolers may be scanned on their side. All coolers that do not meet these guidelines must be returned to your vehicle (Park Re-Entry available).
- Vertical shaped coolers must be no larger than 17″ wide x 24″ tall x 17″ deep
- Horizontal shaped coolers must be no larger than 24″ wide x 17″ tall x 17″ deep
(3) Leave the following prohibited items at home (prohibited items will delay entry due to secondary screening):
- Glass containers or alcoholic beverages.

- Knives or weapons of any kind (including kitchen knives).
