Entry was $3 each even if you don't swim. Plenty of lifeguards on duty. The deepest area of the pool is 4 feet and the shallowest is 2ft 4 inches. Eases the mind about any drowning accidents. There's music playing the entire time and there's also a cool little water slide that requires a certain height to go down it, so that those will be able to to stand in the water after landing in the water. Being my first time, I had questions and different interactions with the staff and all were kind and helpful. Signs say no food, but there are vending machines with a sign that reads "use at your own risk". It's fitting because my first attempt at buying a bag of chips, I was shorted and the chips never came out. The second time (yea, I really wanted a snack), I went for a Reese's and it was a win. So yes...at your own risk. There's a little outdoor area for you to stand and dry without exiting. May be a cool place to bring the kids for the summer or even a small little birthday gathering. There's a splash pad outside for the littles and some picnic area seating under a couple of gazebos. First come, first serve I imagine. My kids wanna come back, so we we'll be back. A little over an hour was all we needed to enjoy.

I read a ton of reviews prior to my visit so I knew what to expect coming in. This isn't six flags,…read moreso don't go in with that mindset and I think if you do you'll enjoy your visit. Several people told me it's like a permanent fair and I would agree with that. We got there right at 5 o clock on a Saturday night and stayed for about 4 hours total. We rode everything with the exception of a few rides that were down or just didn't catch our interest, all had minimal wait times. My favorite was the ski lift type ride, we went on it twice...I recommend going right at sunset for beautiful views! We had several snacks, pretzel, churros and lemonade and we thought they were all very tasty and well priced. I really enjoyed my time there and a lot of the rides made me feel very nostalgic (Himalaya for example was always my county fair favorite!) overall my little family had a blast and I would recommend going!

It's been quite awhile since I've been back so I'm not sure if it's as green as it used to be. I've brought my son here a few times to run around. It's not our first pick for a park but it isn't bad. I'm sure the people who live off Saul Kleinfeld enjoy coming to take a walk and/or a picnic. I've also seen kiddos have soccer practice here. It's expanded over the years. They added a skateboarding park awhile back. There's also a playground. There's also quite a few trees here. If you aren't looking for too many hills to jog or walk, this park is perfect for you. There's also a basketball court. Check it out if you're in the area. It's close to a gas station and Walgreens, along with a few small shopping centers.

I know some people said it was pricey, but honestly the day-to-day budget to keep this open must be a fortune! It was 4 of us and we spent 90$ but we bought a stuffed animal and we fed a ton of animals! Its 10 for children & 14 for adults. And 1.50=1 token and 1 token to feed animals. I thought it was very reasonable! It could have been a lot less if we hadn't bought the toy and fed so many animals. I really hope this place makes it because El Paso doesn't have a lot like this to offer!!

I wish I could say our trip to Jungle Reef Aquarium was memorable for the right reasons, but…read moreunfortunately it was more like watching a slow‑motion disaster while feeling absolutely nothing. My grandma spent most of the visit loudly pointing out the animal welfare issues -- tanks that looked too small, creatures that didn't seem healthy, and enclosures that felt more like afterthoughts than habitats. She wasn't wrong, but it definitely set the tone. Then my mom went to the bathroom and came out pale, insisting there was an escaped snake curled up behind the toilet. Staff didn't seem particularly alarmed, which somehow made it worse. Meanwhile, I just stood there watching the whole scene unfold with the emotional investment of a houseplant. If you're looking for an aquarium that feels safe, well‑maintained, and properly managed, I'd strongly recommend looking elsewhere.

Let me start by saying that anyone that visits the El Paso Zoo from a larger metro needs to lower…read moretheir expectations. This is the El Paso Zoo, not San Diego. With that in mind, I think that for the size of the city this zoo has a lot of potential for the size of the city and has improved significantly in the last few years. I recently visited the El Paso Zoo for the first time in 15 years and was amazed as how much it has changed. Compared to other zoos, their prices are very reasonable and I like that they also offer military and senior discounts. We visited on Super Bowl Sunday and it was absolutely perfect! The place was not super busy and since it was a little chilly all the animals were super active. Some of our favorites were the penguins and the meerkats. One thing to keep in mind if you visit very early is that all of their stores and vendors are still closed so it does take a few hours for them to open everything up. They also had some sections of the zoo closed up for renovations but not too many. Frankly it was nice to see that they are working to improve the living conditions of the animals. Overall, we had an amazing time and will definitely back next time we are in town.

While this zoo is on the smaller side, I felt like there was enough to see to make it worth it. It's also only $13-15, depending if you're a resident or not! What really stood out about this place were the unique animals - There's a lot to see from the Chihuahuan Desert, and other nearby regions. Each area is also nicely organized by Africa, Asia, The Americas, etc. There were a few places closed due to renovations but I'll assume that's because of the time of year. This zoo is pretty great! And only a short ride from downtown!

Our highlight of the visits was buying an ice cream from an ice cream truck parked there. I'd often park here just to chill and clear my mind or eat a yummy snack in peace. It's also a nice park to take in a beautiful sunset. We have plenty of those in the Sun City! :) It's also a nice park for walking. A lot of sporting events with kids and adults have taken place here...mostly soccer matches and baseball games. There's also basketball courts. I have/had an ex that would bring me here for picnics. I don't want to talk about that. Lol. I want to cherish the nice memories I've had with myself and my son here. This is also a good place for a picnic. Definitely check it out if you're in the area. Bring yourself, the kids or a date. It's close to Steakpedos and Marina's German Bakery is up the street, along with Eastside Choice Meats and Greggerson's Bakery. I'll post photos if I'm in the area again. Lots of grass and trees too! Yas!
