If you’ve ever thought, “I wish I could spend every summer afternoon on a waterslide, eating ice cream and acting 12 years old again,” as most of us have, Tidal Cove has just the thing.
The waterpark, tucked inside the JW Marriott Miami Turnberry Resort & Spa in Aventura, is launching what it calls the Seasonal Passport of Fun, a $595-per-person pass that buys unlimited access from April 30 to August 30. (Minus blackout dates on Memorial Day and July 4 weekends, when presumably all of Miami will be crowding the lazy river anyway.)
The pass includes four guest passes, four ice cream vouchers—enough to lose at least one to a rogue splash—and a “keepsake gift,” which will almost certainly be a cushy towel. You’ll also get 20 percent off cabanas, daybeds, and food. Buying one will require a bit of old-school magic, namely that you’ll have to email to request one because good things take a bit of work.
To kick off the season, on Easter Sunday—April 20—the park will go full pageantry, with a bunny, egg hunts, bounce houses, and face painting, all the sugar-fueled chaos your kids can handle.
Tidal Cove, located at 19999 W. Country Club Drive, is open to hotel guests, members, and day-pass buyers—though if you want to be the kind of person who just drops in anytime, better send that email soon. Summer waits for no one.
