Expanding upon Katasan's conclusion...


Water and electronics generally do not make happy bedfellows. Your iPad is not designed to be water resistant. While it will survive being splashed with water if immediately dried, it will almost certainly suffer irreparable damage if it is allowed to get wet, or is submerged for any length of time.


Your limited device warranty does not cover accidental damage - whether by water or otherwise. However, if your iPad has benefit of an active AppleCare+ plan (this being an optional additional cost purchase), then your iPad may be repaired/replaced by Apple for a small service fee.


If you don't have an Active AppleCare+ plan, you will have the full cost of repair or replacement.
