Fun For the Whole Family at Uncle Bernie's Amusement Park
There are some things that you can't do in FL. You can't take the sun for granted, and you can't ignore the fantastic beaches. But you'll never forgive yourself if you don't head to Uncle Bernie's, located at 3291 West Sunrise Boulevard in Lauderhill, and enjoy a day at the best park around.
They have rides for everyone, toddlers and young kids, rebellious teenage teens, and even rides for young adults who are too old to be in amusement parks but just love riding roller coasters as much as they did when they were a kid.
The park has excellent food and fun games (like ring toss) with prizes that you can use on more games or buy a t-shirt. Not only do they have the most thrilling rides but a fantastic water park where you can start with the slow, gentle waters before moving on up to the fast-raging ones.
Fun for Kids and Adults
Kids can enjoy rides, carnival games, cotton candy, and all the other things that children love. Adults also have a full range of thrill rides, from roller coasters to "bungee" plunges and everything in between. Both sides of the park feature shopping and dining options and live entertainment throughout the day.
Tickets
Uncle Bernie's offers both single-day tickets and season pass at different prices. If you think you might come back more than once, consider buying a season pass at a discount so you can return as often as you like all summer long!
When to go
Uncle Bernie's Amusement Park is open daily (except Tuesdays) from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m., but we recommend you arrive as close to opening time as possible. This will allow you to avoid the worst crowds and enjoy cooler weather during the hottest summer months.
What to pack
Don't forget sunscreen, a hat, and comfortable shoes. Bring a backpack with snacks, bottled water, disposable cameras, money, and other essentials. Umbrellas are handy if it rains and can also provide shelter from the sun on hot days.
Roller Coasters
There are many roller coasters at Uncle Bernie's Amusement Park to keep you screaming for more.
With various heights, twists, and turns, it's impossible not to enjoy the roller coaster rides here.
The roller coasters are ranked on how high they are and how fast they go — so if you're a first-timer or just prefer short and sweet, they've got something for everyone.
The Big Thunder Coaster is one of the largest roller coasters in Florida and goes over 60 miles per hour. This coaster will keep you screaming for hours.
Water Park
If you want to get wet but don't want to worry about sunburn, then go early before they open.
They have a range of water slides that are suitable for all ages.
An example is the famous "Blue Wave" two stories high. For smaller children just learning how to swim, there are kiddie pools that are only one foot deep.
Their water park is open during certain times of the year, so please check their website for opening hours before your visit.
