Aquarena Springs was an amusement park located in San Marcos, Texas. Opened in 1951, it offered underwater shows in their famous Submarine Theatre (featuring mermaids, diving ducks, and “Ralph the Swimming Pig”) as well as an Alpine Swiss Sky Ride, Glass Bottom Boats, and arcade machines that pitted players against live chickens in tic-tac-toe and other games. Postcard views of Aquarena show the park from its earliest days right up to its closing in 1985.
