The down-side would be no "lazy-river" type ride for adults (always a favorite when you need to take a break). There seemed to be plenty of lounge-chairs, places to sit and eat in the shade and lockers close to the rides ($8 after the security refund. I'm told), we only waited about six-seven minutes to get on our favorite slides. At it's busiest (an influx after 4:00 pm, when there's reduced admission. The best part about this park when compared to others was the lack of lines. There are lifeguards at every post, most of whom seemed dilligent even though they're all rather young. I steered away from the 'mat' slides after I slipped and fell getting on one, and saw someone else do the same a few minutes later (I guess that will happen in a water park). We had to try it once, but stuck mostly to the tube-slides. The most challenging ride was the Hurricane, which has a similar effect to being flushed-down a toilet into an eight-foot pool. OB was easy to navigate, had awesome water slides, an area for toddlers and babies, and a great wave pool. I think it was only about $45!!? That's less than what I've paid on a daily admission at many other water parks. Residents get a great deal on a season's pass. They obviously make their $ from concessions, as your bags are searched dilligently upon entering for contraban such as food and drink. There's a 15% discount for AAA members and on-line coupons. OB was a great bargain compared to other parks. We had originally planned to visit Busch Gardens, but once down there, we couldn't imagine standing in those long lines dripping in sweat. Beach, and was advised to visit Ocean Breeze by a local.
Let the smokers smoke outside the park so that the rest of us can enjoy all the attractions with a breath of fresh air. My family and I will not be returning to Ocean Breeze water park since its' pro-smoking atmosphere make the entire experience unpleasant. The staff was very friendly and the rides were great but everything was marred by a cloud of noxious smoke that greeted you every time you moved. It is a shame that the rights of addicts trump those of everyone else at Ocean Breeze. To tout this place as kid and family friendly and yet encourage smokers to pollute the lungs of anyone unfortunate enough to be near them is hypocritical. My son, who has asthma, was constantly having to avoid the smokers who had no consideration for anyone but themselves. Even here there were people lighting up next to kids running around. There were smokers by the lockers, by the food venues, by the water rides and even in the kidddie section, the only place I even saw a non-smoking sign. Apparently, Ocean Breeze is a smoker-friendly paradise. While the rides were fun and the staff was friendly we were appalled by the amount of cigarette smoke everywhere. My family and I visited Ocean Breeze Water Park last summer and were sadly disappointed. At many of the food stations there were many workers, it just didn’t seem that anyone was in charge because it was consistently unorganized & a lot of workers just standing around not doing much except talking to one another. We literally ate the salad with a spoon, a knife & our fingers. We also ordered a salad & as we proceeded to sit down to eat, we needed a fork for the salad & no plastic fork could be found. We waited at least ten minutes for a hotdog meal & that seemed ridiculous.
They had many choices on the electronic menu above, but as we prceeded through the short line, not all choices were actually prepared & ready to grab. The issue at the first place was that they could not provide me my order choice because “the cashier was not there yet so they were looking for anothet cashier on site to come & work the register.” Okay… we moved on to the main food are near the entrance. The food was good in terms of quality it is what you expect from reading the menu options on the website, etc. We are a military housing website created by a military spouse for military families.The theme park, itself, is well-staffed, with numerous lifeguards and workers however, the two times we went to get food, it was not a good experience.
