Dash N Splash was a water theme park located in Chennai, India. It was opened in 1995 and was the first exclusive water park in Chennai and South India. The idea of opening the water park was to get rid of the heat, sweat and dust of the city. The motto of the water park was "Refresh Yourself". Indian actor Suriya inaugurated this theme park. The park was shaded with coconut trees for refreshment and relaxation. Dash N Splash had a number of water reservoirs and slides for adults, kids & senior citizens.{{cite web|title=Chennai: Dash 'N Splash, Chennai TOurist Places to Visit for Amusement Park|url=http://www.mustseeindia.com/Chennai-Dash-N-Splash/attraction/13793|publisher=Must See India|access-date=22 December 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120717001042/http://www.mustseeindia.com/Chennai-Dash-N-Splash/attraction/13793|archive-date=17 July 2012|url-status=dead}} It was permanently closed down in 2012.
