This Indoor Beach In Ohio Is The Best Place To Go This Winter

It’s always summer in Ohio.

Well, sort of. America’s largest indoor waterpark in Sandusky, Ohio certainly makes it feel that way when you visit, anyway. Kalahari Resorts and Conventions features a massive indoor waterpark that friends and family members of all ages can enjoy. It’s like a truly epic indoor beach. You can even book a room and make a weekend out of your visit here.

During these uncertain times, please keep safety in mind and consider adding destinations to your bucket list to visit at a later date.

With both indoor and outdoor waterparks (as well as a Safari Outdoor Adventure Park), there's always something to do at the Africa-themed Kalahari Resort.

The indoor water park covers more than 170,000 sq. ft., making it the nation's largest.

With several rides and designated swim areas, there's truly something for everyone. No matter your age, you'll have a blast here.

You can even sign up to try out the FlowRider, which enables you to show off your bodyboarding or surfing skills anytime of year.

The Kids Safari features all kinds of slides and other play equipment the little ones will absolutely love.

Don't forget to take a dip in the 12,000 sq. ft. wave pool. It's the closest you'll get to feeling like you're at the beach in the dead of winter.

Kalahari is located at 7000 Kalahari Drive, Sandusky, OH 44870.
