Break out the swimsuits and sun block.
The heat is on and if you and the kids are ready to get wet, you have numerous options on how and where to cool off for the summer of 2021, including two brand-new water parks.
There is no need to sweat the relentless heat when there are plenty of places all over the city and surrounding areas for water fun in the hot El Paso sun. Just pick a pool, pad, or water park from the list below, pack up some snacks and sunscreen, and get to splashing.

City Adjusts El Paso Spray Parks Hours, Now Open Longer
Just in time for Memorial Day weekend and the inevitable super-hot days that are coming, the City of El Paso has updated the hours of operation for all of the spray parks. According to a social media post on the El Paso Parks and Recreation account, all nine spray parks are now operational from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m.
Effective immediately, the water-splashing fun is no longer being broken up into two segments as the extended break between segments that was being used for disinfecting and trash cleanup has been done away with. No word on if or when those functions are now being performed. The post announcing the change advises guests to call 3-1-1 or email the department “for non-functioning spray parks or maintenance.”
