Six Flags White Water

Six Flags White Water is a water park located on U.S. 41 in Marietta, Georgia, in the northwestern suburbs of Atlanta. American Adventures was a previous addition to the park until purchased by Zuma Holdings in May 2008.

Six Flags White Water was originally opened as "White Water Atlanta" in 1983. Built and owned by the Herschend Family Entertainment Corporation, it was sold to Six Flags Inc. in 1999.

The large parking lot was used as a satellite parking facility for the 1996 Summer Olympics. In the summer of 1998, the park was the site of an "E. coli" outbreak, which received national publicity because one of the children infected was the child of Atlanta Braves baseball player Walt Weiss.

Six Flags operates another amusement park in the Atlanta area. The park is Six Flags Over Georgia, which is located in Cobb County, in Austell and been open since 1967.
