The EA Guide to Arlington-area Splash Pads & Water Parks

The Everything Arlington girls are so ready for some water fun in the Texas Sun for Summer 2020!

We rounded up all the splash pads and water parks in the Arlington area- and let you know which age of kiddos we think each spot is perfect for!


SPLASH PADS
Splash pads in Arlington are free, and they have no standing water, meaning these spots are great for the tiniest water babies! Grab your sunscreen and towel and head on over to one of these spots!

California Lane- 2001 California Lane, 76015





 Brantley Hinshaw Park- 2121 Overbrook Drive, 76014

**Don Misenheimer Park- 201 E. Lonesome Dove Trail, 76002

**Misenheimer is an EA FAVE splash pad! Complete with bathrooms and an adjacent play area, this spot will keep your kiddos happy for hours!

Splash Pads outside Arlington

Clayton Chandler Park- 1530 N Walnut Creek Drive, Mansfield. This spot has a play area and bathrooms!

Safari Splash at the Fort Worth Zoo- Spend a day at the FW Zoo and don't forget your swimsuit! Safari Splash is great for the 8 and under set- and it does require an additional fee.



We are SO bummed to see that Splash Factory in Grand Prairie is closed for the season due to construction. We love this spot- but the Website says see you in 2021.

POOLS
Arlington has some fantastic pools for kiddos of all ages.
Don't forget- you MUST sign up on line this year to reserve your time! All pools are linked below.
Tuesday is TWO FOR ONE admission! That's right... Get in two swimmers for the price of one at all open pools every Tuesday this summer!

Allen Bolden Outdoor Pool- 2800A South Center Street, 76014

**BK Family Aquatic Center- 2800 W. Sublett Rd., 76017

**BK Pool is an EA favorite! This pool has slides, a splash pad, a shallow pool and deep pools for diving. This spot literally has something for everyone!

Helen Wessler Play Pool- 2310 Greenway Street, 76010

**Howard Moore Play Pool- 1999 Bever Blvd, 76013

** Howard Moore is an EA favorite for the 5 and under set! This pool has a large play structure in the center, a beach entry and is only 18 inches deep at the deepest point. Perfect for littles!

Hugh Smith Indoor Pool- 1815 New York Ave, 76010

**Randol Mill Family Aquatic Center- 1924 Randol Mill Park, 76012

** Randol Mill is an EA Favorite! The girls love the lazy river and slide, and the froggie-focused little kid area entertains the under 5 set for hours!

Pools outside Arlington

WATERPARKS

**Hurricane Harbor- Park Reopens June 18 for members and June 22 for everyone- 1800 E. Lamar Blvd, 76006

** EA Favorite waterpark because it is close to home- and if you purchase a season pass, you can go all summer long for a relatively inexpensive price! We pay for our passes in 3-4 visits!

Waterparks outside Arlington

Hawaiian Falls Mansfield- 490 Heritage Parkway South, Mansfield

**Epic Waters Indoor Waterpark Grand Prairie- 2970 Epic Place, GP

**EA Favorite Waterpark!! We love that this park is indoors- so we don't need to bring sunscreen! (Although, if you want to check out the new outdoor wavepool, we highly recommend bringing sunscreen! But this spot is open year-round, meaning the EA crew can enjoy the pool even in January! The slides and lazy river keep us busy for hours!


NRH2O (opens today, 6/15)- 9001 Blvd. 26, North Richland Hills
