Paradise Beach Waterpark 2026 Season: Reopening Dates, New Rides, and Pass Rates
By Robert Thorne
The gates swing open for the 2026 season on Saturday, May 23, 2026, initiating the annual Memorial Day kickoff weekend. The park operates under a dual-phase calendar to balance regional school breaks and seasonal staffing shifts.
During the early season window from May 23 through June 5, the park welcomes visitors exclusively on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. Full-time summer operations begin Monday, June 8, with gates remaining open seven days a week through August 16. After mid-August, operations revert to weekend-only schedules through Labor Day, Monday, September 7, 2026.
Standard park hours of operation run from 10:30 AM to 6:00 PM Sunday through Thursday, with extended twilight hours stretching until 8:00 PM on Fridays and Saturdays. Twilight hours feature evening wave sessions and discounted admission for guests arriving after 4:00 PM. Operational management cautions that mechanical maintenance windows or severe regional thunderstorms may prompt temporary pool clearances, though weather-check vouchers apply if operations pause for more than two consecutive hours.
