Big Surf Water Park Overview:

A good-sized water park, Big Surf jam-packs over 15 slides into its 20-acre facility. Highlights include the Hurricane Falls body slides, The Abyss enclosed (and dark!) tube slide, and Kilauea Cove, twin enclosed slides that can accommodate single or double tubes. Toddlers can play in Captain Cook's Landing play area while slightly older kids will enjoy the Bora Bora Bay play area.

The park also features Waikiki Beach, a huge wave pool. In addition to body surfing during regular hours, Big Surf also offers special boogie boarding sessions at its wave pool. Check the website for dates and times.
