That’s why, I was pleasantly surprised to hear years back that they were planning on bringing a water park to Las Vegas called Wet’n’Wild in the summer of 2013. Located in Southwest Las Vegas at 7055 S Fort Apache Rd., the park was essentially just down the street from me and I made sure to buy my season passes ahead of time for my family.
