This Old School Water Park In Missouri Is The Best Place To Spend Your Summer

We all deserve lazy days, especially during the summer. But, sometimes we crave more than relaxing in the air-conditioned indoors. Scorching summer days just go hand-in-hand with staying cool in the water. Fortunately, we have plenty of natural and man-made water parks at which to play all summer long. Like this old school water park in Missouri that promises to keep us cool all summer long.

Stay cool in the pool or sunbathe poolside at Cape Splash Family Aquatic Center, in Cape Girardeau, a neighborhood water park that...

Promises plenty of fun for the whole family. Love the breathtaking excitement of zipping down water slides?

Then, slip down one of the nine water slides, the tallest of which drops a stunning 259 feet. How does a slide down an enclosed flume sound?

Or, perhaps you just want to relax a little bit while dangling your feet in the water? Meander down the 700-foot lazy river.

Watch the kiddos play at Shipwreck Island and the Splash Pad.

Of course, Cape Splash also offers programs throughout the summer, including how to swim classes and adult-only swim days.

Admission is $5 for kids between one and 13 years and seniors 60 and older. Adults, between 14 and 59, pay $6.

Stay cool all summer long at Cape Splash Family Aquatic Center, open daily from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. (The water park will only be open on weekends beginning August 2, 2019.)

Address: 1565 North Kingshighway Street, Cape Girardeau, MO, 63701
