Historic Route 66
Blue Whale, OK
One of the most recognizable icons of Route 66, the Blue Whale in Catoosa was built by Hugh Davis in the early 1970s as an anniversary gift to his wife Zelda, who collected whale figurines. For family use, it didn’t take the Davis family long to realize that everyone around would want to enjoy the pond, diving boards, and slides that the Blue Whale had to offer. The park includes great photo ops, small picnic tables, a few boats, public restrooms, and a concession stand.
