Calypso Waterpark near Ottawa, Canada was named the World’s Best Waterpark by MSN Travel. The park is splashing into headlines as it rose above Schillerbahn Waterpark, which has a long-standing reputation as the best.
This past summer, Calypso expanded their waterpark with a brand new addition from WhiteWater West Industries. The newest addition, Summer Tower, is complete with 10 brand new slides: 4 high speed slides, 2 Aqua Loops, and 4 “coiled” waterslides. The tower is the only in the world to feature dueling Aqua Loops.
“WhiteWater is a proud Canadian company, so it is a great accomplishment for us to have been integral in the creation of Calypso Waterpark- not only the nation’s best – but now the world’s best waterpark according to a prestigious source like MSN Travel!” Says Geoff Chutter, WhiteWater’s CEO. “2011 has been an exciting year for WhiteWater as we’re celebrating our 30th year anniversary and this announcement makes it that much better”.
