Snow tubing is a winter staple. There's nothing like the rush of the cool wind as it whips across your face and the smooth feeling of freshly packed snow flying out from underneath you.
Actually, there is - summer tubing, which gives you the same thrill without the frostbite. And thanks to Amesbury Sports Park, which will open Memorial Day weekend, you can enjoy that same adrenaline rush of snow tubing, sans the snow, all summer long.
We scored you three hours of heart-pounding, thrill-inducing summer tubing at this spot near Newburyport for just $7 ($17 value). Whether you need a fun family day out, a unique date, are looking for something different to do, or are celebrating a birthday, summer tubing is the ultimate summertime adventure. They're open Saturdays and Sundays from 10 am to 7 pm until June 24th and Thursdays through Sundays from 10 am to 7 pm until Labor Day, so it's the perfect way to fill your weekend. Your voucher's good until they close for the season, which depends on the weather, but is usually in September.
The best part is you’ll never have to trudge back up the hill, because Amesbury Sports Park features a conveyer lift to bring you back up for another run…and another and another. Trust us, you won't be able to get enough and luckily you can combine your vouchers for as many hours on the hills as your heart desires.
Once you've had enough thrills for one day, pop into the Amesbury Sports Park’s Corner Kick Pub where you can grab lunch, a beer, and watch the action on the hill from the giant windows.
