Columbia Pictures Aquaverse (Thai: โคลัมเบีย พิคเจอร์ส อควาเวิร์ส) is a waterpark themed around Columbia Pictures films. It is located at 888 Moo 8, Na Jomtien, Sattahip, Chonburi, Thailand, approximately 15 kilometers from South Pattaya. The park includes attractions based on well-known movies like Jumanji, Ghostbusters, and Zombieland, and primarily offers water-related activities such as water slides and splash zones.^[1]

The park offers a variety of water activities, including slides and flowriders. One of the key areas is the Hotel Transylvania section, which has nine slides specifically designed for children. Beyond water attractions, the park includes go-karting, a mini-golf course themed around The Emoji Movie, and several themed dining options. Additionally, live performances and concerts are held at the Mega Wave Pool. ^[2]

The park opened as Cartoon Network Amazone Waterpark, which was operated by Amazon Falls Company Limited. The waterpark's construction began in 2012 by the main road in Na Jomtien close to Bang Saray beach.^[3] The waterpark's opening date was scheduled in the Fourth quarter of 2013, but was postponed due to delayed construction. In August 2014 the park was opened only for annual pass members and invited guests. On Friday, October 3, 2014, Cartoon Network Amazone opened to the public.^[4]

The park was temporarily closed during the COVID-19 pandemic and underwent significant rebranding during this time. On October 12, 2022, it reopened under its new name, Columbia Pictures Aquaverse, marking its transformation from the former Cartoon Network Amazone into a movie-themed water park.^[5]

Columbia Pictures Aquaverse spans 14 acres and features a variety of attractions, including multiple water slides, a surf simulator, a water play area, a mini-golf course, a lazy river, and an outdoor go-kart track. The park also boasts a wave pool with advanced audio-visual elements, providing unique and immersive experiences for visitors.^[6][7]
