Summer in Niagara Falls is full of sunshine, adventure—and the occasional heatwave. But don’t sweat it! Whether you’re looking to make a splash, enjoy a cool treat, or take in the iconic mist of the Falls, there are plenty of refreshing ways to beat the heat right in the heart of the action.
Here’s how to stay cool while making the most of your Niagara Falls getaway:
🌊 Splash into Fun at Fallsview Indoor Waterpark
There’s no better place to cool down than Fallsview Indoor Waterpark, where the fun never stops and the weather is always just right. With 16 waterslides, a wave pool, a giant tipping bucket, and even an outdoor activity pool with basketball nets, it’s the ultimate way to chill out while still keeping the excitement level high. Even better? The Waterpark is just steps from the Falls, connected to three great hotels via indoor walkways, so your cool escape is always close by. To make the most of your visit, reserve a Niagara Falls Hotel Waterpark Package with one night hotel accommodation and up to four Waterpark passes which gives you access to the Waterpark for two days (from 1:00pm on day of arrival to park close and from park open to 3:00pm on the second day)!
