Is The South Park Wave Pool Open? [Updated!]


Sharing is Caring


Yes. It’s still open. The wave pool at South Park is still open. It’s been open since last summer and we have all the details on when it will be closed for the season and for good.

When Is The Pool Closed For The Season?

The season at South Park is from mid-May to October. The pool is open all year round but it’s normally closed in the winter. Check-in early in the season to make sure the pool is open and prepare to be bored (or amused) by the cold.

When Will It Be Closed For Good?

The wave pool at South Park will be closed for good after the current season. Though it’s open all year round, it’s normally closed in the winter. After the season, the water in the pool will be drained and stored for the winter.

Because the water is drained, it’s not safe for kids or pets to swim in the pool. This also means it’s not safe for water sports or tours. After the season, you’ll have to find something else to do with your family.

Why Is The Pool Closed In Winter?

Every season has its perks. Believe it or not, one of the best perks of summer is that it’s hot. While it’s still pretty cool around the pool at South Park, the temperature can reach highs that you might not experience during the rest of the year. The water is also a lot less stagnant in the summer. There are fewer germs floating around, making it more pleasant for swimmers.

In the winter, the pool is closed because the water is drained. This means there’s no point wasting water to keep the pool open all year round. It also means there’s no aquatic activity going on in the pool. You’re not going to be able to play in the pool or go on any underwater adventures. This may be a downside for some but for others it might be a good thing. Who knows, maybe it’s time for a summertime vacation to the sea, or at least the nearest lake. At least you’ll have somewhere to swim. And it’s still pretty cool during the day. Maybe it’s time to dust off those old bathing suits again.

What Else Can You Do At The Pool?

Besides swimming, the other major activity going on at the pool is floating around on a tube. You might think that the tube is just for show, something to make the water look more exciting. Truth be told, the tubes can be quite tricky to master. If you want to pass the time at the pool, you can take a lesson from us and try your hand at floating around on a tube. Though it’s not something you’ll want to do every day, it’s certainly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Plus, there’s always the inflatable kayak to try out. You can also rent kayaks from the concessionaires on the beach. You might want to try out a different activity each day if you can. There’s a lot more going on at the pool than meets the eye. The wave pool is a lot of fun when the water is crashing down around you but it loses its charm when you aren’t in the water. We’d recommend trying out a new sport or activity each season. It’ll change the vibe of the pool. You might even find that you like a change of pace once in a while. Though the season is still young, it’s time to start preparing for summer. Make sure to check out all the activities at the pool and don’t forget about those little things called inflatable kayaks. Those things are tricky to master. And, at the very least, it’s something different to do on your days off. If you want to make the most out of the pool, make sure to check out all the details before the season gets too hot. You’ll have a lot more fun if you know what’s going on. The South Park wave pool will be closed after this season but it’s still one of the best pools around. We highly recommend it. Just make sure to check the details before you go. And try out a new activity each season. Have fun!
