We had a great day at this water park. The river that transports around the park is very nice EXCEPT it can be hard to get in the current that carries you to the ride you want to actually ride on. My six year old son and I had to go around the wave river TWICE because we could not... more

Schlitterbahn In Galveston Was Okay but it's best to get there right when they open which is 10:00 am.The Line were long but they move fast. The Lazy River Was Okay in the morning but it got a little crowded in the afternoon (not too bad). The New Part Which Features about 6-8 Waterfalls that are about 3 ft down.... more

For the record, I have been a big fan of the original Schlitterbahn in New Braunfels for many, many years. So I headed to the park on Galveston Island with rather large expectations. I have to admit I was expecting a bigger park after the two-park setup along the Comal in New Braunfels. But what this place lacked in quantity... more

We went to Schlitterbahn on Friday July 25. When we arrived at opening the park was fine, but by 11:00 it was so crowded that we spent all of our times in lines or in the rivers which were so crowded you couldn't move and they were dangerous (more about that later). Unlike Disney or Seaworld, where there are always... more

We've lived in the Houston area for 3 years and finally made the weekend trip to Galveston. Spent all day Friday at Schlitterbahn. Packed our rolling cooler w/plenty of drinks and food, and brought our wagon for our 3yr old and gear. We also have 3 other children (12 yrs, 9yrs, 6yrs) We found a table under one of the... more

Schlitterbahn was fun. The wife, son, and I had a good time. Just be careful and go only on the weekdays and avoid the crowds. Don't know why the other reviews were complaining about Safety. It's not like they have rollercoasters in there or something... the worst that can happen is drowning. The lifeguards were ever present and watched us... more

Me, my wife, my six year old boy and 4 year old girl went the ghe Galoveston Schlitterbahn waterpark on Thursday, June 19. We arrived at 10 (opening time) and stayed until around 5pm.

I used to live in Galveston and everyone I knew did not like it. I went last year and will never go back. I flipped out of a tube and cut my elbow, the lifegaurds just laughed. My friend and I left after being there for only 3 hours. If you are going to go to a Schlitterbahn DEF go... more

We went to the park on Wed 6/18/08. Our kids are 6yrs, 11yrs and 14yrs, we all had a nice time on the river and the waterslides, lines were not that bad, maybe 20-mins or so. We left our things at a pic nic table and went back to it on and off all day, nothing was messed with and... more

We went on a Saturday in June and it was wall to wall people. They should not allow that many people to have entered the park. The river ride was like a mosh pit and very unsafe for children. The tubes were so smashed together on the river ride that if someone got stuck underneath it could be disasster. The... more
