Knott’s Soak City opened their gates for the 2017 season on May 20, 2017. The park will reopen for daily operation beginning May 26. New for 2017, Knott’s Soak City debuted seven new slides on two new slide towers, Shore Break and The Wedge including; a fully remodeled Longboard’s Grill, additional seating areas and new spacious cabanas.

The 1.8 acre expansion of Soak City took place on the site of the former raft ride Pacific Spin and a section of adjoining parking lot.

We were at Knott’s Soak City for the season opening and had a fantastic time! Overall we were really impressed as everything in the park felt refreshed and new. The landscape department also did an amazing job bringing out the beauty of the park.

Knott’s Soak City also debuted new Coca-Cola Fresh stations throughout the park and a completely new Longboard’s Grill experience.

The new Longboard’s Grill still needs the exterior signage, but the inside is really nice. The menu consists of lots of fresh new options including hand breaded chicken tenders, fish & chips, burgers, grilled chicken, assorted deli sandwiches, wraps and salads.

Longboard’s Grill and various other dining locations are also included in the 2017 Knott’s Berry Farm dining plans.
