Looking for your next vacation or fun a day under the sun? Epperson Lagoon is a nice place to visit if you are located or near the Central Florida area. Epperson Lagoon is located in Wesley Chapel, Florida. This beautiful lagoon is built by Metro Lagoons by Crystal Lagoons. There are currently various lagoons underway, but Epperson Lagoon is the first completed Crystal Lagoons amenity in the nation. The Epperson Lagoon is a beautiful 7-acre size pool with crystal clear blue waters. This amazing place will make you feel you are visiting the Caribbean Islands. Not only you can enjoy a fun day in the water, but there are plenty of other amenities and activities you can do and enjoy. It is a great place to enjoy with family and friends for a full day of fun, laughter and great eats.
As mentioned above, the Epperson Lagoon is a great place to visit with family and friends because there is something to do with everyone in your family. Once you buy the General Admission Ticket of the day you are interested in visiting, you get access to the following: tropical beach paradise, swimming in clear water, inflatable slide “Slidezilla“, lawn games, beach toys, beach volleyball, and access to the swim-up bar. The General Admission includes access as well to the beach chairs around the pool. The cost for the day pass will be $24.95 for adults and $22.95 for children 3 to 12 years old + tax. There are additional activities that you can enjoy in this beautiful place but it will be at an additional cost. The additional activities are the following: Water Obstacle Course, Kayak, Paddle-board and VR Experiences, each of these activities are around $10 extra. There are additional sitting areas at a little more expensive rate, these areas are called: Aquabana, Cabana, Mini Tiki and Premium Seatings. These areas are great if you are visiting the lagoon with a big group of friends. There is also a big covered sitting area, a bar, a small stage and food-trucks. The Epperson Lagoon has various changing areas, showers and bathrooms. Lastly, the lagoon is open everyday of the week from 10:00 am until 11:00 pm. The pool is open until 8:00 pm, but the bar and open areas until closing.

My tips to have a great experience:
- Pay Attention to the Weather prior days in advance.
- Purchase the Ticket Online.
- Arrive early to get a nice spot and have access to their Beach Chairs.
- Bring Sunscreen.
- Bring Towels.
- Bring a Hat.
- Bring a Beach Umbrella if you already have one to avoid renting it.
- Bring Noodles Floats/Floating devices to rest and relax in the water (1 per person).
The next time you decide to take a trip to Central Florida, no matter if you are a local, visitor or tourist, I recommend Epperson Lagoon. It is a great place to relax and recharge. You will definitely feel you are on vacation in the Caribbean Islands. You don’t need to bring much because they have everything you will need to have a great experience. As a friendly reminder, try to always get out of the daily routine, explore, explore and explore. Do things that make you happy, relax and full with energy. It can give you peace and that is something we all need in these times. Always, ALWAYS! use your SPF and re-apply every couple of hours, your skin will thank you for it.
During the pandemic/Covid-19 days, always try to keep the CDC guidelines. Please follow the 6 foot distance rule from other families, wear a mask whenever possible and if your health permits it. Wash your hands, take hand sanitizer and go as early as possible to avoid being in big crowds.
