Splish, splash, and laugh your way through the ultimate water wonderland—Otter Cove Aquatic Park, where every day is a wet and wild adventure! Themed around the playful escapades of river otters named Ollie & June along with their spirited friends, Otter Cove offers a water-filled escape that caters to everyone from tiny tadpoles to full-grown water lovers.
Whether you’re a daring diver, a laid-back floater, or a sandcastle architect, Otter Cove has a place just for you. Race your friends down the twisty-turny salamander slides, take a tube ride down Turtle Creek, or explore the splashing sprays and spinning features of the newly-renovated splash park. Little ones can make a big splash in the zero-depth activity pool and the shallow toddler pool, designed just for pint-sized paddlers. And when it’s time to dry off a bit, the sand and water play area and volleyball courts offer sun-soaked fun on dry land.
Feeling whimsical? Visit the Dragonfly Den or bounce around in the Frog Bog, where giggles and joy ripple through the air like summer sunshine. For those who like their workouts with a splash of fun, float or walk the Crayfish Canal during the “Not So Lazy River Walk”, held multiple times a week to keep your heart pumping and your feet moving.
Every week brings new surprises, like Float Nights on Sundays, where families can drift peacefully as the sun sets. Tuesdays and Thursdays are abound with energy in the water with invigorating morning walks through the lazy river, and Volleyball with a Lifeguard spices up your Thursdays in June. Got a creative streak? Deck Art Days in July are perfect for little artists looking to leave their mark.
Mark your calendars for unforgettable themed events! Dress up for Princesses & Pirates Night (June 11), celebrate summer with a Luau Party on June 20, and don’t miss Lilo & Stitch Night on June 25. For the safety-savvy, Swim Safe Weekend (May 24–26) and Shadow a Lifeguard (June 26) offer interactive, educational experiences that blend fun with valuable life lessons. More events are planned for July and August. Visit ottercove.org for details.
Hungry? Re-energize with a snack from The Dive, or bring a blanket and enjoy a picnic under the open sky. With plenty of green space, it’s easy to find a peaceful spot to relax between dips.
So grab your goggles, rally your crew, and head to Otter Cove Aquatic Park—the coolest place to beat the heat and make memories that will last long after your swimsuit has dried. Whether you’re splashing, sliding, or simply soaking up the sunshine, Otter Cove is the place where summer lives and laughs echo from every pool.
