Krabby Land Park, also known as simply Krabby Land, was a cheap, poor-quality kiddie theme park made right beside the Krusty Krab. It was essentially an outdoor playground. The objects in the park were either falling apart or worn down, and it was neither safe nor fun. The cheap park was only seen in the episode Krabby Land.

The Rides
Krabby Land was a park of horrible quality made out of used junk. Here is a list of rides that were seen at Krabby Land:
- Fort Adventure: A pair of trash cans, a piece of wood, a wooden sign and some other parts.
- Hose World: A couple of hoses hung up. One hose dripped water every second.
- Toaster Rodeo: Some toasters without wires connected to springs.
- Rocket Ship Fantastica: Pieces of wood that made a swing hanger. A rope was attached to a piece of wood holding a very heavy tube that was supposed to be the "rocket." The tube fell because it was large and too heavy for the rope.
- Tire Swing: Two planks of wood that looked four feet tall. A rope holding a tire was attached to one wood plank.
- The Slide: An unnamed playground slide that broke easily.
- Pit of Doom: A bashed in dumpster with the name spray painted on it. It was broken by SpongeBob bouncing.
- Kelp Ring Swing O: A swing that was broken by SpongeBob.
- Bowling Ball Pit: An otherwise-unnamed pool with bowling balls in it.
Krabby the Clown
Mr. Krabs hands out coloring books/liability waivers, and if the kids hand them in they get to meet Krabby the Clown. This gets the kids' attention. Krabby the Clown's sidekick is the Krabby Patty Burglar, an alter ego of SpongeBob.
Downfall
When Mr. Krabs announces that "Krabby the Clown" will be coming to the Krusty Krab, the kids (and SpongeBob) get excited. The kids lose their excitement when Mr. Krabs puts on a blue tomato nose and a polka-dotted green and yellow tie, and then claims to be Krabby the Clown, only to encourage the kids to buy Krabby Patties and spend money. This causes Mr. Krabs to get beaten up by the children.
Popularity
There was lots of hype with Krabby Land and lots of kids went there. The low quality, cheapness, and it not being fun quickly caused the popularity to drop. One fish tried out the slide, but the slide collapsed from under him.
Trivia
- It is likely a parody of playgrounds at real-life restaurant chains, such as the indoor and outdoor McDonald's PlayPlaces.
- The fact that a majority of the park isn’t safe may be, likely unintentionally, a nod to the notoriously poor safety record of Action Park, a real water and amusement park located in Vernon Township, New Jersey that operated from 1978 to 1996.
- The difference is that Krabby Land's poor safety record had to do with its already poor quality, compared to Action Park's own safety record, which had to do with different reasons (including staff members not being properly trained).
