About the Venue

Jones Park Splash Pad is a city-operated splash area inside one of Gulfport's best-known waterfront parks. Families get a simple free spray-pad stop plus a playground, concrete walking paths, a comfort station, and reservable pavilion space nearby. It works especially well for mixed ages because younger kids can cool off while older siblings spread out across the larger park. The downtown setting and adjacent event spaces can make it feel busier than a neighborhood splash pad.
