Water jets shoot from the ground around a Georgia granite sculpture at this southwest Atlanta sprayground, with mature oak trees providing natural shade for parents. The surrounding park adds a playground, disc golf, tennis courts, and restrooms.
When to go. Peak summer highs in Atlanta average 89°F — warm enough for a splash pad through most of the season without being punishing at midday.
