Summer at the water park is about to get even more exciting for San Luis Obispo County residents of all ages.

The Ravine Waterpark in Paso Robles just announced new attractions and special deals for the whole family in honor of the park’s 20th anniversary.

Come summer 2026, the park will include a new Splash Lagoon in the kids pool area, featuring an eight-slide play structure, tipping buckets, a leisure pool and cabanas, according to a news release.

“The new additions enhance The Ravine Waterpark’s offerings for every age group, giving families and adults alike more ways to enjoy the park all season long,” the release said.

The park will also offer limited edition season passes to celebrate its 20-year milestone.

The anniversary pass, priced at $130, includes unlimited visits, one free ticket for a friend, a souvenir cup with discounted refills, a free round of mini golf and more, a Ravine social media post said. Season passes went on sale Nov. 15.

The park will host a summer kick-off party on May 17, according to events coordinator Vickie Werling. Other season events include a Labor Day luau and a Christmas in July celebration.

“Our guests have made the past 20 years amazing,” general manager Steven Gifford said in the release. “This anniversary is a celebration of all the memories shared here — from the first thrills on the slides to family days in the sun. We’re thrilled to add something completely new for all ages while bringing even more excitement and value for every visitor.”
