Independent Journalism in Phoenix Needs You
We need to raise $15,000 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.
It may be a dry heat, but every desert rat knows that the best way to stay cool is to get wet.
For the past 42 years, Big Surf Waterpark has been helping hot and sweaty Arizonans feel like beach boys and California girls throughout the long, hot summers.

This year, the park will debut new cabanas and revisit one of their original traditions with surfing sessions in the wave pool.
