1 / 2Runaway Rapids Waterpark
π Keansburg, NY
A family-friendly waterpark designed for younger children, featuring slides, kiddie areas, and hot tubs. Parents praise the clean facilities, attentive lifeguards, and safe environment for ages 3-10.
What an amazing park, a great experience , specially if you take your little ones with you . The park sells fast food, hamburgers, hot dogs, fries, chicken sandwiches and soda. Bathrooms were pretty clean and the whole area in general was clean. Lots of employees everywhere. When it comes to safety , I felt very safe, there are plenty lifesavers everywhere. Surprisingly all employees look pretty young, there were very respectful and well manner (the few I spoke to) . The beauty of this park is that there is something for everybody. There are plenty lifejacket vest , for kids. Meter parking around it, make sure you bring enough quarters its $1 for 32min . Thank you all for this great time provided.
π Family Action Verdict
This is an excellent waterpark for families with young children (ages 3-10), offering a safe, clean environment with attentive staff and plenty of lifeguards. While adults can enjoy it, the park is clearly designed with kids as the priority. The $40 admission feels steep to some, but the quality experience and option to combine with the adjacent amusement park provides good family value.

βHad a wonderful time at Keansburg water park with my son. I ended up choosing this place because reservation was not needed which gave it a big +. Got here at 9:45am , the water park didnβt open until close to 11. Lines were short. The staff were helpful and friendly. They had some good rides and most of all my son enjoyed himself. Will definitely come back and I definitely recommend. Update 7/2022 Went back again and I had a great experience. One thing I realized this time around, itβs mainly for the kids. Youβll have fun as an adult but the kids will enjoy it much more.β

βGreat place I wish it was 30 bucks instead of 40 bucks not too long for the slides and a great place to bring your kids come when they first open up so you can really get your money's worth and right across the street is the amusement park awesome place to bring your family πβ

βWe really love bringing our little one here. Weβve been multiple times, and she loves it (5 yo). The park isnβt the biggest, and the attached theme park has seen better days, but the one price on the weekdays for access to both canβt be beat. The kid doesnβt care that some of the rides donβt work because she just moves to the next one. Looking forward to another trip!β
