Soak City Waterpark in Palm Springs

different water attractions to keep cool, we were thrilled to get one of their
cabanas, which they charge half the price after 1:30 p.m. on any left over. W e went
on a day that just wasn't very busy so they marked it down at 12:30 p.m. to only
$35, and boy was it worth it! This made for a glorious day with the kids. Not only do
they provide nice patio furniture and misters, but there were a couple of comfy cots
to take a nap, full waitress service, bringing meals, snacks and attitude adjusting
beverages, and always keeping your pitcher of ice water refilled when necessary.
Now that you're all taken care of, the park takes care of the kids with thirteen
waterslides including the new Shark Attack, a speeding, twisting three-person tube
ride. There is also a lazy river ride, a wave-pool for a bit of bodysurfing and a water
filled fun house occasionally dumping astronomical amounts of water on those
standing below. There are a couple of age appropriate slides for the little ones as
well as a knee deep water play area.

Open daily at 11:00 and closing at various times throughout the year.

Admission is $21.95 for adults and $14.95 for children 3-11. Prices are discounted
after 2:00pm. General parking is $5 and preferred parking $7.

Palm Springs. We so yearning for the solace of our
