Summer is the season for adventure, and there’s no better place to get your fill than Mississippi’s combination waterpark and adventure park! At the waterpark, there are slides, rides, and plenty of other ways to keep cool. On the adventure park side, there’s a towering treetop obstacle course that’s sure to deliver its fair share of thrills. It’s truly the ultimate summer day trip destination.
Gulf Islands Waterpark in Gulfport features miles of slides, wild rides, and cool summer fun for all ages.
It’s not just a waterpark, though. The grounds are also home to Zip ‘N Fun Adventure Park, a high ropes course with dozens of obstacles!
With two parks on one site, there are nearly endless opportunities for amusement.
Delivering adrenaline-pumping fun, the waterpark features a giant wave pool and lots of slides with twists, turns, loops, and more.
And for those who prefer to move at a slower pace, there’s a leisurely lazy river and comfy cabanas.
The waterpark’s attractions might vary as far as the adventure factor goes; however, they all have something in common. They’re named after local landmarks.
Zip ‘N Fun Adventure Park offers just as many thrills as the waterpark. It not only has 50 obstacles, but it features two different courses: Tree Top Adventure Course and Junior Adventure Course.
Thrill-seekers can take on ziplines, rope bridges, swinging logs, and more.
The best part is that you don’t need any prior experience to climb, swing, and zip your way through the obstacle courses.
Only a basic level of fitness is required to tackle each course. There are a couple of restrictions, though. For instance, participants must weigh below 275 pounds. Also, there’s a minimum height requirement. You’ve got to be at least 54" to do the Tree Top Adventure Course and 36" to do the Junior Adventure Course.
Two great parks rolled into one amazing attraction, this Gulfport gem is sure to become a family favorite! Gulf Islands Waterpark is open seasonally. For more information, call (228) 328-1266. Have any questions about Zip ‘N Fun Adventure Park? Call (228) 206-7056.
