It's the end of the summer and what better way to celebrate it than with a Family Day at the
Gulf Islands Waterpark (located in Gulfport, MS)
You can buy a 1 day admission for $29.99 - BUT
Season Passes have been reduced to $34.99
so for $5 more you get unlimited admission through the end of the season!
SOAK THIS IN! I am giving away TWO 1-day passes -
scroll to the bottom of this post to enter to win!
WHAT YOU CAN DO...
The park has a Wavepool - Lazy River - Kiddie Splash Park area - mini-water slides - BIG BIG water slides - every time I turned around there was another slide!
My kids could hangout in the LAZY RIVER and Wavepool ALL DAY long...Ok, ok I really enjoy lounging in the tube and just floating along too:)
Earlier in the summer, I posted info on the BIG water slides of the park (you can see this info here)...On our last visit, we spent a lot more time having a Lazy day on the Lazy River - the music is fun and upbeat and you just simply grab a tube and start floating along...
There is LOTS of fun spray areas for the little ones, even a few mini-water slides for them too! My kid's favorite is the Pelican Bay bucket drop - the alarm sounds - everyone runs over - and SPLASH!
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW...
Besides the fact that you are guaranteed a day filled with WATER FUN - they are all about the deals! As a Mom of 3, this is something I truly appreciate!ADMISSION - prices are reasonable for 1-day admission ($29.99 and $21.99 for under 42"- Weekend price is higher at gate, so buy online!)
BUT the SEASON PASS IS THE WAY TO GO!!! Reduced now to only $34.99 - this pays for itself in basically 1 visit - and you can go back as many times as you want! Get yours here!
The park is open EVERY DAY thru August 10 - then weekends only thru September 13 (and September 7 Holiday too!) See the entire calendar of dates HERE
I upgraded one of my season passes to PREMIUM (for $36.99) - I got (2) free guest admissions (worth $60!) - a FREE cabana rental (worth $50!) - a FREE Refillable Sports Cup (worth $10) AND (2) free drink refills (worth $4) - and discounted swim lessons onsite! I saved over $100 with this upgrade! NOTE: No longer offering the upgrade as of 8/1/15:(
Rent a locker to store your valuables for $7 - and get $5 back when you return the key - Super easy to use and access- and only $2 at the end of the day!
COUPONS - With every season pass purchased (I got 4 of them) - you get a COUPON book good all summer long with over $1,000 in coupons that you can actually use (I have 4 books = $4,000 in coupons!)
For instance, I used these coupons on our last trip:
Used (1) Family 4 pack hamburger combo meals for only $20 (reg price $7.75 each)
Used (4) upgrade the chips to fries coupons (worth $2 each) = FREE
Get a FREE refill for your water bottle (reg price $1.99) = FREE
So in coupons alone - I saved $21 on lunch!
The coupon book also includes Buy one Get one FREE Guest Admissions (so 2 guests for $29.99= $15 each!) $16 friend admission after 2 pm on Sundays (with a season passholder) - and a TON Of other great deals that are good ALL summer long!
WHAT IS FREE...
- Parking is FREE!
- Life jackets are FREE to use (especially helpful for the little ones! Limited supply)
- Tubes are FREE to use!
- Arrive early and grab a table/umbrella and chairs for the day (it's FREE too!)
- Season pass holders get FREE admission everyday
- Kids under 2 are FREE everyday!
The prices were totally reasonable - where else can you get 4 hamburgers, 4 fries, and 4 drinks for only $20? (see coupons used above!)
Note: If you buy the Refillable Sports Bottle for $9.99 you can get refills for $1.99 (or after 3:30 pm they are only $1.00!) - ask for a cup of ice or two and you can share with the kids!
No outside food or drinks allowed (and they do check your bags at the door) - but you can bring your Gulf Island Sports Bottle back every time!
Here is an idea of food/prices - they also have pizza (whole or by the slice)
