Changes in the Children's Section

Over the last few weeks we've been making some pretty exciting changes to the Buccaneer Bay childrens' section. The South Seas Silly Slides were professionally landscaped. We added some new palm trees, shrubs, flowers and decorative rocks. It looks fantastic, and the palms will add some pretty neat scenery when the kids are sliding down the slides!

In the past some of guests have expressed interest in having a fence installed around the childrens' area providing greater peace of mind for parents hanging out at the park with their little ones. With that in mind, we've added fencing around the entire Buccaneer Bay area! We're really pleased with how it turned out, and we're happy to bring our guests something that they've requested!

Check out our changes!

The New and Improved Treasure Chest!

Over the last few weeks our candy shop, The Treasure Chest, has undergone some major renovations. There's new paint throughout, as well as a new floor. We've also added a new counter and new display cases. I think I've already mentioned the new addition that is my personal favorite....the chocolate covered frozen bananas.

The new counter
The chocolate covered frozen bananas....YUMMY!

This awesome treasure chest was entirely hand made with jelly belly jelly beans!

Gorillas Can Give Blood Too

Last weekend Ocean Breeze Waterpark hosted a Blood Drive for the American Red Cross in our parking lot! It was the first time we've ever held a Blood Drive at the park and it was a success. I gave blood myself, and I particularly enjoyed the banana I was given after donating!
