Shark Park: adrenaline and water fun one hour from Miami
About an hour from Miami, in West Palm Beach County, Shark Park 561 is a water park that offers one-of-a-kind attractions.
To begin with, what one imagines when you hear "water park" are the typical water slides and wave pools that can be found in most places of this type. But this is not the case.
When you arrive at the place or look for the park on the Internet, the first thing you see is the "Obstacle Island", which are inflatable games on the lake that simulate a parkour experience where the whole family finds their way to have fun. However, despite the fact that this type of game is already quite new in its kind, they are not the main attraction. First there is the "Shark Park Cable Park".
The "Shark Park Cable Park" is an attraction rarely seen in an amusement park. Here, the "waivers" will get on a water ski board that will take them to ride on the lake while holding on to a cable. For those who do not understand what it is about, it is the same activity that is carried out in the water while being carried by a boat, only in this case it is a cable.
In addition, this art of the cable has different levels, both for the difficulty and for the way of carrying out the activity. There is a part for beginners and another for more advanced people, where what changes are the different obstacles that the skier performs. Those who cannot stand up on the ski can also do it kneeling.
Regarding prices, they are divided into three: the pass for the "Obstacle Island", the pass for the "Cable Park" and the combo. Also, all prices vary depending on the amount of time, but generally range from $30 to $60. For more information, you can consult the park's website.
