Description

Ever needed a beach getaway in the middle of finals week?  The Mizzou Aquatic Center's new purely recreational facility, Tiger Grotto, offers just that right here on Mizzou’s campus!

Amidst palm trees and other tropical flora, the sound of waterfalls and fountains give Tiger Grotto an atmosphere of complete serenity.

There is a world of activity at Tiger Grotto.  Its Lazy River allows you to float along without any effort while you watch ZouTV on the big screen.  Additionally, the new 101° Spa hot tub is big enough to hold you and more than 20 of your friends.  In the Vortex, you can swim against the current or let it simply spin you around.  And don’t forget: sauna and steam rooms are also available to make your tropical experience as authentic as possible. 

Tiger Grotto is a great experience even if you don’t get in the water.  In addition to its relaxing atmosphere, Tiger Grotto also offers almost a dozen beach-style rocking chairs in its overlooking balcony, making it possible to enjoy the surroundings without ever stepping foot in the water! 

Whether to simply relax, cool off in the water, or soak up the heat in the sauna, Tiger Grotto is sure to provide an enjoyable atmosphere for all swimmers and visitors!

On Friday evenings from 6:00-9:00P the Mizzou Recreation Complex hosts Family Night. During this time members of the facility may bring their families to include children under the age of 18 to use the facility. Please keep this in mind as you plan your use of Tiger Grotto as it is a popular amenity of Family night.
