As the temperatures heat up, Orlando offers many cheap and fun places to cool down. A local splash pad is a perfect option when you have little kids in tow, and there are plenty of splash pads near Orlando.
Most of the free splash pads are open year-round unless the temperature drops significantly. Check with each park for the venue’s seasonal schedule and operating hours.
Some splash pads are open for Spring Break while others wait until May to open for the summer season.
Parks are free of charge or up to $3 each (usually cash only) and most offer resident pass deals.
