Shark Wake Park is the ultimate family-friendly, crew-approved water sports destination in West Palm Beach. Located in Okeeheelee Park, SWP features one of the largest floating obstacle courses on the East Coast and a cable system for wake boarding, knee boarding, water skiing and more! For the young and young at heart, Obstacle Island is a massive inflatable, floating playground covering an acre of water featuring monkey bars, climbing towers, slippery slides, and more! Thrill seekers age seven and older are encouraged to splash and dash during 45-minute sessions on the course. No gear, no experience, no problem at the Cable Wake Park! Just show up and they'll take care of the rest. The high-tech cable system makes it easy for beginners to learn how to wake board, and allows advanced riders and pros to go as big as they want. At the end of the day, cool off in the shade at the Shark Shack with cold beer on tap, ice cream, snacks and other refreshments to watch the pros ride.

I took a trip with a few friends to Shark Wake Park to get a better grasp on cable wakeboarding, We had a phenomenal time got everyone up and around the cable. the Operators were extremely helpful and friendly, and the line moved surprisingly quick! I will definitely be coming back for more!

My son (59) and I (85) went to Putt'n Around yesterday. I had misgivings about going, but I had a vey enjoyable time. There are 2 courses - Everglades and Ocean. I had read that Everglades was easier and expected to play on that course. It was a holiday weekend so there were many parents and children on Everglades. We decided to play on Ocean. It was really not that difficult. I was having so much fun that after 18 holes on Ocean we played 18 holes on Everglades. I was afraid it would be too hot, but the landscaping provides cover and it was very pleasant. Go! You will have a good time.

We enjoy bringing our grands here for the day. If you can splurge for a cabana it offers respite and allows for naps and space to rest. The rides are fun and offer teens thrills as well as a lazy river for younger ones.

First, this is one of the better 'yesteryear' villages that have sprung up as variations on the theme in several cities - it is less kitsch than most, more authentic than many and there is some actual cohesiveness and sensibility to the narrative - credit its creator; who also constructed a modern plantation building replica on premises to house his early American(a) collection. You are free to wander at will, and there is no sense of the 'this is sacred' that you do find in some other village experiences. Yes, many objects are 70-100 years old, but these are still items some of us live with and use daily - they are not relics. I visited on a drizzly December day and was treated to basically a private, extremely comprehensive tour, meeting three or four absolutely charming women, several of whom had comprehenisve knowledge of the area, the collection, the local history, etc. My 2nd planned stop of the day hadn't panned out and I extended this visit for several hours - much more than planned - and found things to interest all along the way. (You could capture the flavor in a much shorter time, but if interested you can absorb as much information as you're willing). Really it was a delight to meet with these dedicated women who enjoy preserving their past and bringing it to life again.
