Hours will be posted at a later date based on staff availability and weather.
Please note: Check our website as hours and events will be posted daily. Dolphins Cove & Adventure Lagoon require 20+ lifeguards and staff members. Adventure Lagoon and Dolphins Cove will
be open when a swimming crowd can be expected: typically with weather forecasted to be sunny and
74+ degrees. On average weather days, we will only open Dolphins Cove as average weather will
bring a smaller crowd. Opening decisions may be backed up if the morning weather is questionable...
guards are available daily with a one hour notice. The park may close early due to inclement
weather. Hours may be extended on hot days! Mussels Beach will open with temps in the 70’s.
Mussels Beach requires only one guard and may be opened quickly for members. The adult pool will
be open for all ages when Mussels Beach is closed, 14+ when Mussels Beach is open and 16+ when
