Knotts Soak City – Escape The Heat

The desert is hot.  Really hot.  Really, really hot actually.  As beautiful and as fun as Palm Springs can be, summer temperatures have been known to hit 120 degrees.  The best way to escape that heat is to spend the day at the new and improved Knott’s Soak City.

Knott's Soak City

In March, Knotts Soak City in Palm Springs had its opening day, welcoming crowds of people who were eager to enjoy the cooling waters of this amazing water park.  Not just any water park either, the biggest in the desert.  Make sure you try the Pacific Spin which is a multi-person ride that takes you through tunnels, drops you 75 feet into a funnel, and takes you through 5,500 gallons of water before ending in a waterfall splash. If that’s not enough, there’s also the Tidal Wave Tower with its 7 storey speed slide, the Big Spin, and the Tower of Terror.

Knotts isn’t just a place for kids, it’s a place for everyone to escape the heat.  Adults are welcome.  If you and your significant other are traveling to the area, make sure that after you cool down at Soak City, you warm up at Lake La Quinta Inn.  It’s a beautiful bed and breakfast that provides a quiet, private, and romantic getaway.
