Pin It
I've been to Tan Tar A as a waterpark guest. This is an AWESOME place for any family on a budget. Small enough to allow the kids a little freedom but large enough to keep them busy for the entire day. Lockers are available and the snack bar isn't to pricey. We went in March and it wasn't over crowded. Can't wait to go back!
