Atlantic City's first year-round indoor water park opens this month with high ticket prices

Bart Blatstein spent $100 million to build Island Waterpark, an indoor aquatic recreation facility in Atlantic City designed to attract families and provide non-gambling entertainment options.
The waterpark includes 11 slides, a surf simulator, a lazy river, a Kids' Cove, cabanas, and an adults-only nightlife section.
Tickets to the waterpark range from $69 to $119 per person, with discounts for some groups.
The waterpark is set to officially open on June 30 in an effort to appeal to family tourism and offset Atlantic City's reliance on gambling.
Previous proposals for indoor waterparks in Atlantic City never came to fruition, making Island Waterpark the first successful venture of its kind in the resort city.
