Local Spotlight: The Best $3.00 You'll Spend all Week

CB Smith Park & Paradise Cove

Tucked right in the heart of Pembroke Pines, CB Smith Park is one of those rare places that’s got something for literally everyone — from paddle boats to pickleball, BBQs to batting cages.

But the real gem, especially once the heat kicks in? Paradise Cove Water Park.

Why Locals Love it

• 🛝 4-story water slides that will make your kids (and probably you) scream

• 🧒 Shallow splash zones for the little ones

• 🏖️ Cabanas for rent = all-day hangout goals

• 🚴 Miles of trails, a huge campground, and mini-golf

• 🎯 Archery, tennis, and a massive lake for fishing or chilling

Insider Info:

• Weekends get packed fast, especially during summer — go early or book online

• Annual park passes are a steal if you're a regular

Mike’s Take:

If you’ve got kids or just need a nature reset that doesn’t involve I-75, this place is clutch.

Most families live here for years before realizing how much CB Smith actually offers.

Paradise Cove is basically a mini water park in your backyard.
