As one of New Hampshire’s newest aquatic theme parks, Liquid Planet Water Park in Candia aims to bring intergalactic fun to the Granite State. Zoom down the water slides, get doused by shimmering waterfalls, test your agility in the wet and wild jungle gym! This park is a perfect place for families of all ages and certainly a cool escape from the summer heat.

What are some of the main attractions?

Here is a short list of what Liquid Planet Water Park has to offer:

• The Shooting Stars: Here are two forty foot vertical drop speed slides that will certainly start your heart racing!
• The Fountain of Youth: This is the largest spray ground attraction in New England. 5000 square feet of interactive water amusements, toys and more will certainly keep any young or old explorer busy.
• Trevor’s Time Warp: This is a 272 foot long body slide that will make you feel as if you are swirling and whirling back and forth in time.
• Haley’s Comet: Quite like the comet that careens around in the sky, this 246 foot long fully enclosed water slide will make you feel as if you too are spinning through space.
• The Splash Down: If you are just looking for a calm place to cool off, visit this 25,000 gallon swimming pool.
• Crater Lake: If fresh, New Hampshire water is more your thing, check out the park’s largest attraction: Crater Lake. It is a fresh spring fed traditional swimming hole. Spread out on over 2000 square feet of inviting beach sand and when you get hot, dive in!
• Rock N’ Splash: On Saturdays, enjoy local bands and a DJ for a 6pm to sundown water park party! The entire park remains open past typical closing hours for extended fun.

They also have a zip line!

If splashing in the water isn’t quite enough for you, definitely consider checking out their amazing Escape Velocity Zip Line! This is Liquid Planet’s most exciting attraction to date! The dual lines are over 1000 feet long and they allow for two riders to zoom through the air side by side at the same time. The aerial path takes you over the entire water park, the fresh water lake and the lush woods at a height of 35 feet in the air!
