This park provides fascinating adventure options - think mini-golf, skate park, and batting cages. What’s not to like? Now, does the phrase ‘outdoor shopping’ give you an adrenaline rush? If yes, then you will love our next stop - the SanTan Village, an open-air shopping center brimming with premium stores. Who wouldn't love a retail therapy in the middle of a vacation?
