About the Venue

Florence Family Aquatic Center is the region's most fully featured outdoor water-play option in this part of Northern Kentucky, pairing two spray grounds with a zero-depth accessible pool, lazy river, competition pool, and major slides. Families with mixed ages get the most value here because younger kids can stay in the spray-ground and entry-level water areas while older kids have more to do than at a typical municipal splash pad. The facility also adds shelters, concessions, family restrooms, and paved circulation around the grounds, making it easier to stretch a quick splash into a longer summer outing.
