Gravity Park
Gravity Park is an amusement facility on South Padre Island featuring rides, arcade games, and interactive activities for all ages. The park includes a Ferris wheel overlooking the island, a climbing wall, a Skycoaster, go-kart racing tracks, the Rocket reverse-bungee tower, and attractions like mini-golf for younger visitors.
The park opened in 1993 and has become a favored destination for families visiting South Padre Island. Over the decades, it expanded its rides and attractions while maintaining the welcoming spirit that defined its early years.
The name reflects the physics-based thrills that define the rides and attractions. Visitors experience a casual, welcoming setting where families spend time together and escape from the bustle of nearby streets.
The park sits near the main beaches and busy streets of South Padre Island, making it easy to reach. Rides are paid individually with no separate entrance fee, and visiting in the evening is best when all attractions are operating at full capacity.
The Rocket is the world's tallest reverse-bungee tower, propelling riders upward into the sky rather than dropping them downward. This inverted concept creates a memorable experience that sets it apart from typical bungee attractions.
