St. Pete's flagship splash pad features whimsical animal fountains and tunnel sprays inside a park that also offers a large playground, picnic pavilions, a fishing pier, and a free golf driving range. It is the city's main seasonal water playground on the south side.
What's on site. OpenStreetMap maps toilets on site, drinking water, playground alongside, parking at this location.
When to go. Peak summer highs in St. Petersburg average 91°F. Mornings and late afternoons are far more comfortable than the middle of the day, and shade is worth planning around.
How long it's open. Roughly 30 weeks a year, from April to October. Seasons shift year to year and municipal pads often close early for maintenance, so check before a long drive.
