Park Services!

Do you want to help keep Ocean Breeze Waterpark clean? If something is dirty, unorganized or messy – do you need to fix it?

We are looking for focused and detail oriented people to do one of the most crucial jobs at the Waterparkmaintaining the appearance of the facility and grounds. Park service members responsibilities include cleaning and clearing tables, chairs, restrooms, walkways, windows and floors throughout the day. You will also be asked to return tubes, mats and life jackets to their storage positions. Weeding and raking in targeted areas may be requested. Trash collection is also a primary responsibility.

It does get hot and you do a lot of walking and standing, but it's a great job! You get to learn a lot about the park because our guests usually come to you for information. Previous experience is not required, and this position is open to 15 year olds! If you're 15 and looking for a great summer job, this is it!

Aquatics Positions

When it comes to Lifeguarding, only the most responsible candidates should apply. There is the fun aspect of being out in the sun all day, but it goes hand in hand with the responsibility of saving lives. Guest safety is the number one priority for our Lifeguards. If you apply you can expect rigorous training, which we do ourselves. You will learn safety skills, first aid and CPR. But don't expect that to be the only training you receive. Lifeguarding at Ocean Breeze Waterpark also involves daily and weekly training, but you can expect to have a lot of fun doing all of it!

Junior Lifeguard Camp focuses on teaching kids what it means to be a lifeguard! Junior Lifeguard Camp Counselors must love working with children, be considered highly responsible and dedicated to sharing their knowledge with patience and enthusiasm. Ideal candidates will be able to both perform and teach all lifeguard, CPR, and first aid skills in an engaging manner. Junior Lifeguard Camp Counselors will also be trained on sight, so previous experience is not necessary. We do require counselors to be 18 years old.

Our swim instructors promote water safety by teaching children how to be safe around water and develop their swimming skills. This is a very rewarding job, but it requires a responsible and patient person that is great with children. Excellent swimming ability is required. Experience with swim instruction is preferred, and loving working with kids is a must!
