Located within the JW Marriott Miami Turnberry Resort & Spa in Aventura, Tidal Cove Waterpark is celebrating its fifth anniversary with entertainment and activities during a summer kick-off event on June 1. The outdoor recreation and entertainment venue opened in 2019 and has since won multiple awards for its state-of-the-art facilities, including the first-ever FlowRider Triple facility in the nation. Guests and members can enjoy three surfing areas 42 feet wide, a Lazy River, a Water Slide Tower featuring seven slide experiences, private cabanas, poolside dining, and much more.
“Tidal Cove has been a popular and beloved destination in and of itself since opening as part of the property’s $300 million renovation five years ago,” says JW Marriott Miami Turnberry Resort & Spa Vice President and General Manager Shane Allor. “A favorite amenity for our hotel guests and members, Tidal Cove has also become a community destination for South Florida, and we’re excited to kick off this incredible celebration of its first five years!”
From 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., the June 1 event will be a day filled with fun and excitement. Guests can look forward to an abundance of party favors and decorations, including limited edition Tidal Cove floats. The festivities will also include all-day entertainment, with live broadcasting by DJ Drew from Miami and DJ Amelia from a specific plate number. iHeart Radio will be present throughout the day, offering merchandise and prizes, such as Tidal Cove tickets for future visits, food and drinks, and experiential offerings from select partners at the water park. Additionally, Vacation Sunscreen will sponsor a sunscreen station where guests can sample fashionable new sunscreens like Classic Whip SPF. Maui Jim sunglasses will also be available, showcasing new sunglass models and distributing fun handouts to guests.
The 4,000-square-foot separated family-friendly “Kids Cove” poolscape and play structure is designed to entertain younger children at the park, while seven water slides, including the Aqua Drop, cater to thrillseekers of all ages. The Aqua Drop provides a thrilling vertical drop experience with its disappearing floor. The first-ever FlowRider® Triple surf & bodyboard simulator in the nation is a major attraction for riders and spectators, operated by local surf pros. Tidal Cove will also host a bodyboarding contest organized by iHeart Radio, with prizes awarded to the top three winners, adding to the excitement of the park.
The event will feature Teddy, the Tidal Cove Mascot, for meet-and-greets, along with various other activities, such as âme Jr. Spa offering poolside spa services all day, face painting, hair braiding, a petting zoo, a bounce house, and a special Kids Cove DJ playing music from 11 a.m. onwards.
