Splash pads are abundant in Phoenix! These made-to-play in water fountains can range from simple to almost small-scale water parks that kids (and possibly adults) will love. Finding splash pads can be tricky, however, as not all are located near playgrounds, or even at parks. Some shopping centers in Phoenix even have fabulous splash pads. Below you will find a list by the city of all splash pads in the Phoenix area. There is even a list of favorite splash pads all around Arizona!
