Superior Shores is the water park located directly inside Valleyfair in Shakopee, Minnesota. Its history dates back to 1983, when the first water slides opened here. Over the years, the water park became Whitewater Country, later Soak City and eventually the Superior Shores of today.

The park offers a varied selection of slides, ranging from fast body and drop-floor slides to tube, mat racing and family rafting attractions. Lighthouse Landing features several different slides from one large tower, while Breakers Bay and the Ripple Rapids lazy river offer a more relaxing change of pace. There are also several areas designed for younger visitors.

What makes Superior Shores particularly interesting is its mix of older and more modern attractions. Parts of the water park have developed over several decades, while newer slides add plenty of variety to the lineup. With admission already included with Valleyfair, the water park is also easy to combine with a day of roller coasters and rides next door.
