Rides On Opening Day
Every major water ride except one is in place when White Water opened in 1981 is still operational today. The only exception to the rule is the Caribbean Cruise which was replaced by The Big Kahuna in the mid 1990s. Some aspects of the rides (particularly changes at what is now Shipwreck Island) have changed over the years. Below is a list of the names of the rides on opening day, and what they are currently named.
- Great Sea Wave, now known simply as The Wave Pool.
- The Twister and The Sidewinder, now known collectively as Swashbuckler Flumes.
- Pirate's Cove, currently known as Shipwreck Island.
- The Rapids, now known as Keelhaul Falls.
- Little Squirts Island, now known as Kids' Kove.

“The lariat snaps; the cowboy rolls
His pack, and mounts and rides away.
Back to the land the cowboy goes.”
