Splash ‘N Play at Pinecrest Gardens

Located in one of Miami’s most beautiful botanical gardens, this splash park is a colorful, whimsical water area where dragon fountains, towering mushrooms and flower-shaped showers abound. After playing in the water, families can extend the fun with a walk through the botanical trails, time at its ADA-accessible playground and a visit to its mini-zoo. General admission is $5 for adults and free for children under 2. Splash ‘N Play is open 10 a.m.–4 p.m.

Jungle Splash at Jungle Island

Packed with adventure, this inflatable water park invites kids to climb and slide across giant splash structures, race down tall water slides, cool off in shaded wading pools, and more. And for parents? They can relax with food and drinks at Pink Flamingo. Private cabanas are also available for rent. Jungle Splash is included with general admission to Jungle Island, which also boasts TReewalk Village, Guardians of the Jungle animal show, and chances to spot animals like lemurs and capybaras.

 

Jungle Island’s Splash & Play also has a special offer available through Aug. 31. Visitors can enjoy lower prices and unlimited Jungle Splash access, as well as a free bag of animal food to feed wildlife on your first visit.
