WACO, Texas – As many Texans know, the summer’s heat tends to linger for a while. So for those who are looking for a place to cool off, there’s a waterpark in Waco, Texas that features an 80-foot waterslide and the world’s longest lazy river.

Waco Surf -- formerly BSR Cable Park -- located at 5347 Old Mexia Road, features everything from water slides to a surf lagoon. With four royal flush water slides, the tallest slide stands 80 feet tall, which was built in 2014.
