Big Bear Waterpark Opening at Pine Knot Marina

The Floating Waterpark at Pine Knot Marina is making its splashy return and if you’ve ever watched the excitement from the shoreline, you know it’s a must-try. Built and operated by the crew at Big Bear Watersports, this floating playground transforms Big Bear Lake into a full-on adventure zone.

The Big Bear Lake season has officially kicked off, and the energy on the lake says it all: Big Bear Waterpark is back.
