Visit the Watermelon Swim Pumpkin Patch this Season and Help Make a Difference.
Pumpkin spice is back, Halloween is on the horizon, and Team Melon is ready to celebrate our favorite season of the year! 
From October 2–31, visit our annual Pumpkin Patches at our Lutz, South Tampa, and Brooksville locations, or stop by the festive indoor pumpkin displays at our Riverview and Wesley Chapel locations. Open daily from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., it’s the perfect place to pick out your family’s pumpkins, snap fall photos, and get in the fall spirit.
The best part? Every pumpkin makes a difference.
Every pumpkin purchased helps provide life-saving swim lessons for local children with physical and cognitive disabilities through our Students with Disabilities Scholarship Fund. Together, we’re helping ensure every child has the opportunity to become safer and more confident in the water.

More Than a Swim School
For nearly 50 years, Watermelon Swim has helped generations of Tampa Bay families build confident, safer swimmers. Today, we’re proud to be Florida’s largest independently owned swim school, serving thousands of families each week across five locations in Greater Tampa Bay, with locations in Brandon and Zephyrhills coming soon.
Our mission is simple: to create a community of safer swimmers and reduce the risk of drowning while increasing confidence in and around water.
Drowning remains the leading cause of death for children ages 1–4 and the second leading cause for children ages 5–14. Research shows that formal, continuous swim lessons can reduce a child’s risk of drowning by 88%.
Everything we do, from swim lessons to our free water safety presentations to community events like our Pumpkin Patch, supports that mission.
So come pick out a pumpkin, enjoy an unforgettable day of fall fun, and while you’re here, stop inside to learn how Watermelon Swim can help your family build confidence and survival skills to last a lifetime.

We can’t wait to celebrate the season with you!
