💬 What Parents Say

• 💡Arrive early to complete all rides within the first hour, then relax for the remainder of your visit. The park is small enough to experience most attractions quickly.
• 💡Buy tickets through Groupon or the official hotel website to get the best price and potentially free parking. If using Groupon, note that the $30 parking fee is not included, so factor that into your savings.
• 💡The park entrance is through the Showboat hotel lobby. If you already have tickets, enter the lobby and turn left—ignore directional signs as they may lead you elsewhere. Drop family off at the lobby entrance, then park on Atlantic Avenue (about 2 blocks away) for free metered spots at $1.50/hour, saving the $30 garage fee.
• 💡Bring your own towels and waterproof phone cases, as these items are very expensive in the park. Pack a good breakfast or plan a late lunch outside the park to avoid the high food prices ($5 ice cream, $16 chicken fingers, $9 for 3 churros).
• 💡The park has dedicated areas for different age groups: Kids Cove with a 3ft pool and slide for little ones (with life jackets available), and a separate Adult Island with a swim-up bar. This layout allows older kids to explore independently while parents can supervise or relax.
