description Cedar Point Waterpark Overview

Cedar Point Shores is an outdoor waterpark located adjacent to the Cedar Point amusement park in Sandusky, Ohio. Operated by Cedar Fair, the facility was formerly known as Soak City before being rebranded and renovated to integrate more closely with the larger resort complex. The waterpark features a variety of water slides, a wave pool, and designated splash areas for children. It operates seasonally and is aimed at families and park visitors looking to cool off during the summer months alongside the main park's roller coasters.

help Cedar Point Waterpark FAQ

Is Cedar Point Shores included with a regular Cedar Point admission ticket?

No, the waterpark is separately gated, so you either buy a Cedar Point Shores ticket, a combo ticket, or a Cedar Fair season pass that includes both. Check the current pass tiers, since which ones include the waterpark can change year to year.

What was Cedar Point Shores called before the rename?

It was called Soak City until Cedar Fair rebranded and renovated it as Cedar Point Shores in 2017. The renovation tied it more closely into the larger resort complex next to the main amusement park in Sandusky, Ohio.

What's the best place to stay near Cedar Point Shores?

Hotel Breakers is the classic option — the historic lakefront hotel dates back to 1905 and sits between the amusement park and the beach, a short walk from both parks. There's also Castway Bay's indoor waterpark option next door for cooler days, plus Sawmill Creek and standard Sandusky hotels.

How long is Cedar Point Shores open each year?

It's a seasonal outdoor waterpark, typically operating from late May or early June through Labor Day weekend, often with limited midweek hours early and late in the season. Because the schedule shifts, check the Cedar Point calendar before planning a trip.
