If you’re headed to Big Kahuna’s Destin, prepare for a splash-packed, thrill-filled, sun-soaked day. From heart-racing water slides to chill lazy rivers—even after-hours fun in the Adventure Park, we’ve got everything you need to make memories that last way longer than your tan.
Whether you’re rolling in with your family, summer squad, or camp crew, here’s a sample itinerary to help you make the absolute most of your day at Big Kahuna’s.
10:00 AM: Splash Through the Gates
Rise, shine, and get ready to dive in! Gates open at 10 AM, and early birds snag the best lounge chairs, locker rentals, and cabana spots.
Pro tip: Grab your tickets online ahead of time so you can skip the lines and head straight for the water!
10:30 AM: Slides First, Questions Later
Start your day with a thrill! Race your crew on the Kowabunga Racer, twist and turn on Monkey River, or brave the wild ride that is Jumanji. Feeling a little more laid back? Drift into paradise with a ride down the Lazy River or catch a few waves in the Wave Pool.
There’s something for every mood, every age, and every thrill level—no camper, cousin, or cool aunt left behind.
12:30 PM: Refuel & Recharge
All that splashing works up an appetite. Swing by our food spots for fresh pizza, juicy burgers, crispy tenders, and of course, ICEES, to cool things down. Find a shaded spot to munch, hydrate, and plot your next move.
2:15 PM: Chill Zone or Splash Zone?
This is a “choose your own adventure” moment.
- For littles (or anyone who’s feeling mellow), hit Kids Cove or float the Lazy River one more time.
- For those still full of energy, it’s back to the slides!
Need a little breather? Relax in the shade or rent a VIP Cabana for a cozy spot with extra perks. And don’t worry, parents and camp counselors—Big Kahuna’s layout makes it easy to keep an eye on your crew without breaking a sweat.
4:30 PM: Sweet Treats & Souvenir Stops
As the water park winds down, treat yourself one more time—because no trip is complete without a snack and a keepsake. Whether it’s Dippin’ Dots, a slushie, or a t-shirt that screams “I SURVIVED JUMANJI,” the gift shop is the perfect last splash stop.
5:00 PM & Beyond: Adventure Park Bonus Round!
Just because the water park closes doesn’t mean the fun has to end. Keep the party going at Big Kahuna’s Adventure Park (requires a separate ticket).
Dry off and level up with:
- The Sky Coaster for high-flying fun
- A round of Tropical Mini Golf on our beautifully themed courses
It’s the perfect way to end the day—a dose of dry thrills and even more memories.
Whether you’re planning a full-blown family day, camp outing, or just looking for something unforgettable to do in Destin, Big Kahuna’s is your one-stop destination for nonstop fun. From slides and snacks to thrills and chill, it’s all here—waiting for you.
