Swimming pool – the main attraction
The swimming pool is the main attraction of Spring Valley Beach Park. The main pool is one of the largest you
will find anywhere. The depth does not exceed 5 feet. And there is a special pool called kiddie pool where kids of
all ages enjoy the fun with water.
The water slides have something for everyone. While the Sidewinder is for daredevils, the Chiller is for speed
lovers. To ride the Sidewinder, you have to climb a four-storey tower. The ride is thrilling, zigzagging and make
sure you scream while riding. The Chiller is actually two water slides built into the side of a hill. It is always
advisable that you wear helmets for your safety while taking Chiller water slides. There is also an aboveground
slide called the Circle-S, which is undoubtedly a fun-ride.
You may ride the water slides as many times as you wish since the price of riding is included in the cost of
admission. An air pump is also available to inflate your rafts and floats. Lifeguards are also there on duty and
they always watch you and your children for your safety.
Price of admission
