Come and enjoy our Splash-down Family Slide, Sandcastle Beach or simply relax in our lounge chairs. We have shaded areas so you can take a break from the summer heat. Interactive water play Discovery Fountain will bring loads of water fun to our Sandcastle Beach area. Children can choose from the bubblers, the flushing funnel, flow gates, and the paddlewheel to enhance their day in the sand, which is from the Lake Michigan Dunes. With umbrellas, lawn chairs, picnic tables, and a sun hill, there’s a place for everyone. So, come out to Dolphin Cove – it’s like taking a vacation without leaving home!
