There are some great spots guaranteed to let you have the best tan, and the best time; and a lot more than that. This article will tell you of amazing spots on Long Island, in New York.
Splish Splash waterpark is located in Calverton, New York, which is neighboring Riverhead, is a definite stop on this drive, through of incredible waterparks. Park hours vary day to day, with the park being open ten in the morning until seven at night. Or, the park is closed. Check out the website for park hours because dates are subject to change without notice. An event and promotion that they are starting May twenty-ninth, which is opening day for the park season; will let a friend get in free for one day. They must chose the day from a list of dates provided on the website. All you have to do is buy a season pass for $69.99. However, you must buy your season pass, and have it processed by June 30, 2010 in order for your friend to get the “bring a friend free ticket”. Season pass holders may also buy 37% off parking tickets. You must buy them at the season pass window, prior to coming to the waterpark. No adjustments will be made if you show up at the park without the discounted parking ticket. This is a hot deal that you wouldn’t want to miss out on so make sure you get your discounted parking ticket while you grab your season pass.
The park atmosphere is one of the reasons you wouldn’t want to miss this park. They have beautiful tapestries, and clean sidewalks. Everyone seems to be in a good mood when I go there. You have atleast one park worker at every attraction. The service is great, because they will hand you things, and you aren’t forced to get them yourselves; inner tubes and all. They carry an assortment of food from snacks to meals. Pizza has to be one of the favorites at the park. Reservation of tickets isn’t possible, unless you are in a corporate party. Parking gets to be pretty packed on nice days so you will definitely want to arrive early on beautiful, warm, sunny days.
General admission costs you $36.99. It is free for children under three years of age. However, if the guest is under 48″, or is weak or a non-swimmer, they must wear a Coast Guard approved life jacket at all times, where it is considered appropriate. Life jackets are available in the guest services kiosk. A forty dollar deposit or valid photo identification is required. Locals like this waterpark because it’s an affordable waterpark that has great rides and slides, including a giant wave pool. Everyone loves it because of their rainy day policy. If the park is closed two hours after you purchase your ticket, and they decide not to reopen it that day, then your ticket can be used for an exchange and you will receive a rain check in place of your ticket. Exchanges can only be made on the day of this occurence.
Water Safari Enchanted Forest, located in Old Forge, New York is supposedly New York’s largest water theme park. To me it also seems that way. They have over fifty rides and attractions including thirty-one heated water rides. The park will be open for the season on July 16, 2010. Park hours vary day to day, and the park opens as early as 9:30AM, and closes as late as 7:00PM. They have an offer called the Siesta Savings Plan. If you enter the park at 3:00PM on days that they open at 9:30AM, and 2:00PM on days they open at 10:00AM, with any type of ticket then your next day is free. However, this offer isn’t valid when you are redeeming a Siesta Park Pass. Once you enter the park you can get a Paul Bunyan Club membership.You can purchase this membership for a small fee. This entitles you to come back to the park for half price as many times as you want for the balance of the current operating season. If you purchase a season pass you can come to the park all summer long. The season pass will pay itself off for around the price of only three park visits. So, if you decide to go more than three times this season then it is worth it to just get the season pass.
The park is very scenic and has beautiful pine trees, and the park workers are always in a good mood. They also have a Storybook Lane which is houses from the different fairytales such as Little Red Riding Hood, Hansel and Gretel, and so on. Pizza Hut Express is across the street at Calypso’s Cove. They also have different types of snacks ranging from popcorn to ice cream, and then food from fries to actual meals. Ticket prices for parking and children under three years of age are free. You can buy tickets at the park or off of their website. Children ages three to eleven cost $23.95, and if you buy that ticket off of their website it will cost $22.95. Adults ages twelve and over cost $26.95 at the park and $25.95 off of the website. A season pass for a child or adult costs $69.95 at the park if it is purchased before June 30, 2010; and the same price if you purchase it off of their website. The locals love this water park being close to home since it is the largest water park in New York, within their arm’s reach. It’s a place you can go to for the day to have a blast.
