San Antonio has so much to offer, come visit and see for yourself. Below I have listed ten, just ten, exciting places to go in and around this great city.

Ten activities to enjoy in San Antonio this summer #1)

Fiesta Texas! Purchase a family season pass and enjoy! Kids can return repeatedly. Not only is it fun, imagine the health benefits from all the walking and just being outside! Do not forget the sunscreen. The water park can be an all day adventure, as can the rides themselves can be. This is an amusement park that becomes more fun the more you go visit.

Schlitterbahn! Alright, technically it is located in New Braunfels-but that is only a twenty or so minute drive from San Antonio. Water rides! All day fun and free parking! Wanting a water park closer? Splashtown is off Interstate 35 North just past downtown. Moreover, this park offers movie nights! Or you can just go tubing off the Guadalupe River or out at Canyon Lake.
