Editor's Take

A very practical family pick because the splash pad is only part of the draw; the broader park setup makes it easier to turn a quick visit into a longer outing.

About the Venue

Catherine Strong Splash Park is one of the most complete neighborhood splash-park setups in the Palm Beaches, combining free water play with a playground, basketball courts, pickleball, walking paths, and pavilion rentals. The City of Delray Beach lists daily public hours from morning through evening and describes both a splash-side pavilion and a separate sports field pavilion. For families, it is especially appealing because the splash area sits within a broader park that supports longer stays, birthday meetups, and mixed-interest sibling outings.
