In 2001, the 15-acre (61,000 m2) park (6 ha) Schlitterbahn Beach Waterpark opened in South Padre Island, Texas. Schlitterbahn Beach was the second waterpark in the Schlitterbahn famliy. It is located between the dunes and wetlands on South Padre Island. It is accessible from Padre Boulevard and via a footbridge from the beach. The entire site is approximately 26 acres and the waterpark covers about 15 acres with approximately seven acres of parking - all designed around nearly four acres of protected wetlands. The park includes 11 attractions, and 13 water slides. The centerpiece of the park is a highly themed, five-story Sand Castle with six turrets connected by ramps, stairs and netclimbs. The Sand Castle was named the Best New Kid's Ride/Attraction by the International Association of Amusement Parks & Attractions.[4] Another central feature of the park is the Boogie Bahn2 where guests try their skills during the day and the Schlitterbahn Surf Team performs after park hours. Sea Trek is an underwater helmet diving experience were guests can view the ocean without ever leaving the park. The park also features a wave pool, five beaches, sand volleyball courts, and the Transportainment river system. Transportainment [transportation + sport + entertainment = Transportainment®] This park features the first installation of the Transportainment river system that transports guests around the park on water. The attraction is designed to minimize the time park guests spend standing in lines. Shrimp HausT Full-Service Restaurant The Shrimp Haus is adjacent to the waterpark and is open year-round with beach-to-bay views. During the waterpark's season, guests can have a front-row seat from terraces overlooking the park's Boogie Bahn surf machine.
