The Atlantic Ocean isn’t the only aquatic getaway that North and South Carolina share. Carolina Harbor Waterpark is nestled right between the two states at Carowinds. Opening for the season on Saturday, May 20, the waterpark boasts a six-story water slide, two wave pools and a two-acre family area guaranteed to cool guests off in the summer heat. Nominated as one of USA Today’s Top 10 Best Outdoor Water Parks in the US, Carolina Harbor has attractions for every water lover. Guests can spend the day enjoying thrilling water attractions and mouth-watering food, or basking in the Carolina sun.
