California has some of the best beaches but Waterparks appeal to those who want quality recreation time in a fun and family safe controlled environment.

Waterpark

DROPZONE is Southwest Riverside County’s very own water amusement park that features water play areas such as slides, splash pads, water playgrounds, a lazy river, as well as areas for swimming, a wave pool and volleyball court.

There is a fast-food area called The Fill Station where you can buy burgers, hot dogs, chicken, nachos and other snacks. You can also bring your own food, but you will be required to pay a fee based on the size of your cooler.

The waterpark also offers something called Camp Zone, which is a day camp for children ages 5-12. Camp Zone includes daily swim and water safety lessons, weekly themed activities, and crafts, plus access to the full waterpark.

Other aquatics related classes you can take at DROPZONE are -Jr. Lifeguard Training, which focuses on preventing injuries and ensuring safety in and around the water, and an American Red Cross Lifeguarding training course which teaches rescue and surveillance skills, first aid, and CPR.

You can also catch a workout in the Aqua Aerobics Class if you are inclined to burn some calories while you’re at it.

Attractions

The Experience

The Park appears clean and well maintained. Food sells out towards the end of the day, but we had some pretzels that were really good. Unfortunately, we didn’t get to experience the Terminal Velocity Slides as they were down at the time of our visit. Kids favorite seemed to be the wave simulator and overall the park was fun for both kids, and adults.

Tickets and passes can be purchased online, and I suggest you visit the website for requirements and hours of operations as they are going to a weekend only schedule starting next week. DROPZONE is located at 2165 Trumble Road in Perris, CA 92570.
