One of the Chicago area’s most popular water parks will open for the season this weekend.
Hurricane Harbor Chicago, located on Six Flags Great America property in suburban Gurnee, will open for the 2024 summer season Saturday, a spokesperson said.
The 20-acre water park features more than a dozen rides, a lazy river, a “surf rider” pool, kids splash zones and more. It also includes Tsunami Surge, the World’s Tallest Water Coaster, the spokesperson added.
