Places to eat

After burning some energy sliding, swimming, and diving, the family can grab a bite to eat from Zak’s Snack Shack which sells anything from hamburgers and pizza to chips and ice cream.
Hours for the park vary over the course of the year. During June and July, and until the 14th of August, it is open daily from 10 am to 5 pm.
