If you're looking for something fun to do this holiday season, why not head to Schlitterbahn Water Park on South Padre Island?

Even if temperatures take a little dip, there's no need to worry, the park has you covered with special amenities.

Mike Bigelow from Schlitterbahn was live with Action 4's Hannah Linn on Tuesday morning, talking about what you can expect from the park.

The new year-round, heated, indoor water park currently features: two large 70-foot-tall intimidating tube sides, two tidal wave rivers, a whimsical kids area with several slides, a giant heated pool with swim-up refreshments, a saltwater beachfront pool, several wave beaches and a 1950's Grand Carousel.

The park has three on-site eateries as well with delicious food and entertainment from the Seaside Grill, Loblolly Grill and the Sea4Ever Rooftop Bar & Grill.

The all-new 221 room Schlitterbahn Beach Resort and heated indoor water park are open year round.
