Overview
When the former Escape Theme Park ceased operation on 26 November 2011, the site was used to make way for a bigger Water Park and Costa Sands Resort. Wild Wild Wet was closed from 23 July till 1 November 2012 for renovations that includes new rides and attractions.[1] Wild Wild Wet was expanded to 3.8 hectares, approximately the size of five football fields which will double the original size and feature six new rides and attractions which will open in the end of 2016. NTUC Club said admission fees are expected to go up slightly due to inflation and increasing operational costs.[2] The new rides have since been opened up to the public. This site won the prestigious award Best Family Attraction by Tripzilla magazine.[3]
