About Big Surf
Surf's UP! On those warm Arizona days, there's nothing better than cooling off with a splash at Big Surf, a water park oasis located in Tempe, Arizona. Spread across a sprawling 20 acres, Big Surf offers a plethora of rides and attractions designed to entertain every member of the family, no matter their age!
Imagine the thrill of riding the waves at the Waikiki Beach Wave Pool, where 2.5 million gallons of water create the perfect surfing conditions. Kids and parents alike can rent rafts and boogie boards to ride the waves or simply float along with the gentle current. It's the ideal spot to beat the heat and enjoy some family fun under the sun.
For the littlest water enthusiasts, the tropical Bora Bora Bay is a must-visit. With playful tipping tree frogs and shallow waters, it's a safe and exciting place for the little ones to splash around. The Otter Slides, especially designed for kids under 48 inches, offer gentler thrills with smaller slides landing into a tropical bay.
Older kids and thrill-seekers will find their match with the Hurricane Slides, featuring three exhilarating body slides that promise a whirlwind of excitement. And for those who dare, The Black Hole offers a spine-tingling experience as you slide through a pitch-dark, enclosed tube. Not for the faint-hearted, this ride is sure to get your adrenaline pumping!
For families looking to relax, Captain Cook's Landing is a serene haven. Toddlers will love interacting with the playful turtle, alligator, and seal figures, while parents can unwind in the calm surroundings. With so many options, Big Surf ensures a day filled with laughter, splashes, and lasting memories.
So gather the family, pack your swimsuits, and dive into a day of aquatic adventure at Big Surf!
