* Attraction has been CLOSED *
My family always had a blast at Splash Island Water park at Cypress Gardens! It is small, but I do not like to wait in long lines such as those at Wet 'n' Wild. It is more of a relaxed environment. I would let my children go play and I would still be able to see them. There is a kids secton, I even went on it, it was very fun. My favorite is the wave pool though! I am very sad it closed down, I lived on thirty minutes from there and I went atleast twice a month, even more in the summer.
Unfortunately, this wonderful Central Florida park has been closed (as of September 2009). It was a family favorite and an old Florida tradition for many. The park land was sold and soon will reopen in October 2011 as LEGOLAND! I will repost a review after we visit!
This water park joins forty rides from carousels to coasters, wildlife, and the justopened Bugsville for small fry with the famed gardens that featured Southern belles.
