    My 2 year old absolutely loving it!

    My 2 year old had such a great time!! I was able to go on the big slide with her as well!

    I'm like the Mommy Poppins of events and venues for a day with the kiddies. Recently I did some research on spray parks throughout the tri state area and came across this treasure in Bay Shore ! This is a great idea for a DayCation on Long Island. You get the feel of being outside of New York in Suffolk County. We had such a beautiful day here. We spent our Friday afternoon basking in the sun and ocean breeze over at the Bay Shore Marina. My daughter really enjoyed this little spray park. It features 2 small water slides, a tipping bucket, spray cannons and splash pools. Great for the tiny tots and children up to ages 10. Adults can even get in on the action here. There are several lounge chairs and umbrellas to relax under while supervising the kids. Arrive early or close to closing to enjoy. The staff are professional and really monitor the children and surroundings. They even reminded me that there was no eating on the premises. They run a literal " tight ship" here. Lol. There's also a cute little snack bar called " Sea Toys" next door near the bathrooms. Ship Wrecks Cove is located near the entrance and it's 15.00 for admission each person plus parking fees. 50 Cent each hour to park. There is a beach, playground, basketball court and pier to enjoy while viewing the Ocean candy. We will definitely be back!

    My 2.5 year old son had the best time. The half an hour drive was definitely worth it. The water temperature was just right for a hot day. It gets pretty crowded, we were able to get chairs and an umbrella when we went 10:30 am on a Sunday.

    Excellent place to bring the young kids. Parking is $.50 a hour and $15 to get in for people 3 and up. If you're a Town of Islip resident it's free. They have about 20 tables with umbrellas so if you want to sit you have to get there early. Bathrooms are easily accessible and very clean. The only thing I don't like is kids aren't allowed to wear puddle jumpers or life vests. I understand it's against code but some kids wear it for security purposes.

    A lot of fun for young family. Slides aren't to much. After a few minutes you are comfortable with water. Bring cash for food. Parking good.

    I had heard about this sprinkler park from others and decided to take my son on our way home from being out east.

    Super clean and spacious public pools. Large outdoor family…read morepool with lap lanes on one side, big open pool area on other. They even have a big funneled swirling water slide. Wish the public pools i went to as a kid had a water slide like that. No need for an expensive trip to a water park when you can affordably use your seasonal pool pass or pay $5 a person as a resident to get in here. They even have a very a super large baby pool with shower waterfall items to walk through or sit teaching the baby how to swim safely. Plenty of lounge chairs and large lockers rooms. Can't wait to come back again as this is a great place to catch some rays and cool down safely.

    Where I live (Babylon Village) has a very popular pool, but this is my favorite. It has…read morewaterpark-tier slides that are incredibly fun (and I'm old enough to have survived Action Park). The pool is very clean, and both of the times I've been there recently (including today) there were "possible thunder" closures, which is fairly standard for pools. I'm pretty sure I spotted a Town of Babylon SPF dispenser which is nice. There's also a very robust splash area, and what I think is a baby pool or kids' pool, plus several lap lanes with diving platforms. Another reason I like this pool a little better is because you don't turn blue and freeze to death with the bay breezes. I wish I could get here more often.

    We bundled tickets to the water park and amusement park and spent one day here. We arrived around…read more10:30am (they opened at 11am) and there was already a line. We were let down around 10:55am and let into the water area promptly at 11am. We easily got three seats right in front of the wave pool. We had myself and a 36" tall kid and a 48" tall kid. 48" could ride all water slides. The 36" year old was relegated to the kiddie slides in the Kung Fu Panda area and the Arctic Zone slides but she still had a blast. The highlight was probably the hot tub. The kids loved that they could go in too-we made several visits throughout the day. The lazy river was also fun but the kids preferred no tube. There are two paths and one is less lazy than the other. The wave pool was fun without a tube and, actually, most people didn't have one. My youngest loved the dance party with King Julian from Madagascar. The Arctic zone has 6ish slides for 36"+. The Kung Fu Panda area has 5-6 slides also 36"+. We also spent some time in the Gabby's Dollhouse splash pad. This is for the VERY youngest guests. My 7 year old went on some 48"+ slides right next door and my 4 year old was done in 15 minutes. We also had lunch at the burger shack and it was decent for an amusement park burger and hot dog. We also secured a locker but could have in retrospect kept everything at the towels as long as I kept my bank cards/phone in my watertight case. I really look forward to returning here in the future and so do my little companions!

    My honest opinion- I hate waterparks. Period. But for the sake of my kids, I decided to come here…read moreand rented their skybox suite thinking it'll be nice to have a little privacy.. Park is only opened for certain hours of the day. If you show up as soon as they open, you'll wait in a huge line waiting to get in. Those who reserved skyboxes check in and wait for a staff member to bring you to the skybox, which gets complicated because they're stopped every couple of feet to get asked questions by other people. Idk if it's cuz we went in the middle of a heatwave, but our skybox was HOT AF. I mean no AC and the heat from the pool + the glass windows, it was a total greenhouse effect. You're sweating the minute you walk in, your kids are hot, youre hot- you can imagine the frustration building up to dropping your things off and going straight to the water. We immediately hit the wave pool and with a one year old, the skybox isn't the best when they need to nap and you don't have anything to keep them comfortable, other than the wagon we came with. The waterpark itself was surprisingly clean. I was expecting the strong chlorine smell but shockingly, there wasn't any. A LOT of people but didn't feel like I was crowded over unless you're in the lazy river. We stayed the whole day but I went out with my 1 year old so we can get some AC and air. I would keep in mind that if you're getting the skybox suite, this would be best in the fall/winter time. The skybox was clean-ish but I know it's anything but. They have cushioned furniture and who knows how often that gets cleaned, our soap dispenser wasn't working, and our fridge just water and a few cans of ginger ale. You can request to have it refilled but we really weren't trying to stay In the room for long. I would come back but only for a special occasion. Definitely bring water shoes cuz you can bust your ass on the floor here. Water shoes and towels are available for purchase but def bring your own to save money.
