White Water Bay is totally a life saver from the Forever Summer Texas heat as it's a decent sized…read morewater park that's right inside Six Flags Fiesta Texas the best part about it is that you can get into it for free with your season pass or payed park admission! On the day I visited it was 103 outside by mid day I couldn't take the heat anymore and came here to cool off and get my hair wet I must say it was a totally refreshing way to escape the heat of the day! They have a good number of waterslides here as well as having all of them be completely different from the next one definitely the highlight of the slides has to be Thunder Rapids Water Coaster as it's the first of its kind in North America and wow is it fun I've never ridden a slide like this before and I found it to be super fun as well as Wet and totally unique to anything I've ever experienced before as the technology that created this is totally rad and a great way to knock out those huge stair cases! The ground here can get super hot I mean super hot and that's coming from me someone who's always barefoot at waterparks so make sure you bring some sandals or something to keep your feet cool from the burning cement or just try to walk in the shade and water spots to keep them from burning! As anyone who visits waterparks will tell you coming to one can be a great workout as well as a rewarding time as your climbing lots of staircases and getting some swim action in if you choose to do that wile your inside their huge State Of Texas shaped wave pool. The waterpark opened a bit later than the park but it was all good as it was super hot by then and this was much needed the best part about this is that Gold Pass members can get into the Water Park 10 min early so that will definitely save you a bit of time and get you on a few more slides! Overall I really enjoyed my time here at the waterpark as all the slides were fun and I thought it was cool that their wave pool had its unique Texas shape to it as it made for some fun waves and splashes! Stay cool Wet and amazing good people of the Yelp Community in the Forever Summer sunshine!

Food is WAY overpriced, not just standard amusement park overpriced. Chicken strips are $20, no…read moresides or drink included. There are tons of gnats. People leave their stuff all over the tables and then disappear, so you can't sit down anywhere to eat. There is no shade anywhere over water, so you can't wade unless you are directly in the Texas Sun. If you want shade, you have to pay for it by buying lounge chairs or a cabana. The kids waited in line for about 25 minutes for the ride to breakdown; when this happens, they do not accommodate them by fast passing them later or anything like that, they are basically just told tough luck, try again later. A locker big enough to fit a backpack will run you $17.

My sister, her kids, and I all wanted to go swimming in the lake but all the parks we knew either…read morehad really rocky beaches or didn't have easy access to the water. We finally settled on West Lake Beach. WLB isn't actually on the lake; it's on the Colorado river. It's got a really nice park that not only has easy water access, but it's also got lots of shady spots to cool off. They also have BBQ pits for cooking, picnic tabels for eating, and a vollyball court; they even have water volleyball! We all spent a really nice day at WLB and wouldn't hesitate to go back another day :-) Tip: Be forewarned; while there are rest rooms here, they're not particularly clean, they don't have toilet paper, and they don't have doors.

We learned of this beach from several guides that listed places to go swimming around Austin…read more Their website says they open on Memorial Day Weekend. Their Facebook page doesn't mention that they're closed and neither does their voicemail message on their listed number. Unfortunately, when we went on Memorial Day Weekend, there are signs everywhere that say they are closed. There is a Marina there and that is still open but unless you want to reserve the entire place for your party, the park area is closed to the public. If anyone knows the owner tell them that they should update their information to say Beach and Park Access by Reservation Only.
