Do not like that they close the pool for an hour and if you want to come back you are required to pay the full admissions fee again.

What an absolute BLAST of a waterpark!! Highlights: really…read moregreat staff/lifeguards & very clean. Summer 2026 the rate for four adults, two children under 5 and cooler for $126. Came here on at 11am on a Friday into the afternoon and we all had so much fun. There were some school trips there and all the chairs were taken but it still didn't feel crowded. Short lines, if any, for the lazy river and short lines for the slides. - The lazy river was a hit! 2'5" makes it easy for everyone to enjoy. You have to stay in your tube and the kids complied, mostly, LOL. My 5yo nephew quickly found his element and must've went around 50 times. When it gets busy and the line reaches a sign, you can only go around once. We did have to do that twice but the line getting back on was quick and eventually died down when the school kids left. By 1pm it was smooth floating. - They have four waterslides. Two of them are drop slides (just learned the term). The longer ones were so fun! You can even catch some air on the right slide haha. I think they're built more for the adults than the kids! The two drop sides are also so fun and give you that adrenaline rush. Or at least for me! I did unfortunately fall pretty hard into the water on the left drop slide and have regular issues with my ears as it is. I should have prepared myself better and am still suffering the consequences of not acting my age I guess HAHA. I will say the manager Jason Mata was incredibly helpful. He was able to put some alcohol drops in my ear to relive the fluid from my ear. However it came right back a few minutes later, no fault to him. Either way, it was so much fun and didn't ruin my time one bit! They also have a large pool with a partial deep section and a splash pad area for younger kids. There's also a beach/sandlot playground to enjoy. Lots of fun for everyone!! And the best perk is being able to bring your own food and drinks. This excludes any glassware or alcohol. I honestly think that's a clutch option and so awesome! Did I mention the place is clean and the staff is great?? Cheers to summer!!

Nice water park. A bit expensive in my opinion for 1 day.... $17.75 for 1 kid…read more There's a lazy river, two areas for slides and a pool. It's nice but, just seems expensive. Plenty of chairs. Pretty clean. Basic food in the mini cafeteria. Pretzels and nachos and pizza etc.

The water park is wonderful and that's why I'm a pass holder. However I would question some of the…read morechoices by management in its daily operation. Specifically, I forever feel like we're being told to exit the pool for things like adult swim and swim lessons. During July 4 weekend, for example, for all practical purposes, only pass holders could reach the water park due to the city's carnival. The pool was mostly empty. And yet, adult swim continued! The shallower portion of the pool had precisely one swimmer for one session, and -- get this -- none in the next. It's simply bizarre. They kept evacuating the pool. And today, on the day of this writing, if you call the daily update line, it says nothing about swim lessons, yet during lessons, you must again leave the pool. (There are lessons today, BTW.) While I understand wanting to give adults some time, it seems downright authoritarian and overbearing sometimes. Why not just close off the deeper section? If you come for a visit with young children, be ready for the blaring whistles and obediently head for your towel. No questions asked.

Dear Sea lion. I am a season pass holder but this place has had some rough patches like this one…read moretime I went with my camp we were stepping on broken glass and one kid had to go to the ER and I cut my foot. They have a huge space of empty land where they can make a good water slide like maybe a water Coaster but Sea Lion acts so cheap when they charge like 3 million dollars for a day pass so theres no reason to not make a good ride. But it gets worse when I was at the snack shack yesterday I spent 4 dollars on a damn snow cone and we got pizza. We got our pizza right away but then they started scrolling on YouTube and then after 10 minutes we told them we were waiting for a snow cone and then it took them 5 minutes make a snow cone. I'm very disappointed Sea lion. In conclusion you guys need to hire better staff, make better slides and clean the park more. My rating 0/10 Don't come here

I had been to the Aquatics Center for a seminar in one of their meeting rooms, but never the pool…read moreitself. Recently my cousins rented the whole place out for a birthday party. I was impressed. We had the entire pool room to ourselves, with two giant pools, one shallow for the kids with a slide, and the other with lanes for more serious lap swimming. They also have a large hot tub which I enjoyed immensely. There was room for our food, gifts and seating all in view of the pools, and their locker rooms, showers and restrooms were well maintained. The doors lead out to a nice patio area in the back, where there are outdoor pools and beautiful scenery. I'm sure we were inside because it had rained that day. I don't know what my cousins paid for this private event on a weekend, but it was worth it. Fun was had by all.

This review isn't about amenities--it's about safety and accountability…read more There has been a longstanding, repeated issue involving a member who has engaged in inappropriate and harassing behavior toward underaged lifeguards over multiple years. According to staff reports and community awareness, these concerns have been raised more than once and are not new. What's deeply troubling is the pattern of response. Instead of a permanent resolution, the approach has reportedly been temporary suspensions followed by reinstatement--after which similar concerns continue to surface. If accurate, that is not a meaningful safeguard but rather a cycle. When an organization is aware of repeated allegations involving minors and continues to allow the same individual back into that environment, it raises serious questions about judgment, oversight, and priorities. At a minimum, it suggests a failure to put adequate protections in place for staff. This is not about one incident--it is now a repeated pattern with clear evidence that the executive director and board do not care about the safety of the young women they employ. Anyone considering employment here, or parents with kids working here, should be asking very direct questions about how harassment is addressed and what protections actually exist in practice. The parl district's mandated sexual harassment training for their staff while doing nothing to protect them from harassment from their precious paying members. Until there is clear accountability and transparency, this is a concern the community should take seriously.
