Think it’s possible to enjoy the adventurous waves of the ocean without all that meddling sand? Absolutely! Tidal Wave delivers all the excitement of the high seas straight to you and all your friends when you come to Michigan’s Adventure.
This large wave pool at WildWater Adventure (we have three wave pools, you know) varies in depth from zero to a whopping six feet, so everyone can join in the fun. Make sure to listen for the buzzer because that’s the alert that our massive wave generators are cranking up to deliver fantastic fun! Want to body surf on the waves? Check! Even little ones can enjoy the action when the waves make their way to the shallow end of the pool as playful ripples. With lounge chairs and cabanas nearby, everyone can enjoy a relaxing time at Tidal Wave.
