There’s no question that The Waterpark is one of the best places to spend time in the summer. Central Indiana’s premier waterpark is a part of the Monon Community Center in Carmel.
The Waterpark in Carmel
The park-like atmosphere at this waterpark is one of the unique features that sets The Waterpark apart from others. There are trees and native plants growing, butterflies flittering from bloom to bloom. Beyond the beautiful setting, there are so many things to do.
Things to do at the Carmel Waterpark
Design rules at The Waterpark—there are many unique activity areas throughout the venue.
- The waterslide zone with two large waterslides—one body slide and one tube slide.
- A deep pool with the super fast, short slide that plunges riders deep underwater and a super fun aquatic climbing wall.
- A kiddie pool area that’s fenced in. This area has a small activity playground and splashing sprinklers.
- An activity pool area with a giant water playground with slides, games and water spraying everywhere.
- The lap pool is great for practicing those swimming skills or just relaxing with your friends.
- FlowRider: This hot spot is where guests can learn to surf on a simulated experience. Sign your FlowRider waiver in advance.

Waterpark Cabanas
The cabanas at the Waterpark are a comfortable space to set your things down, relax in the shade, store food and drinks, and just enjoy time with your friends and family. Each cabana is equipped with a ceiling fan, radio volume control, a cushioned chaise lounge, three cushioned chairs, electrical outlets, end tables, a cooler, and a lockable cabinet. When we have a cabana rental, we place a catering order with Chik-fila and bring fruit trays and veggie trays and fill the cooler with Capri-Suns and soft drinks. It’s so much fun!
