nswain1110 Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 From a young age I've been a waterpark fanatic and have been lucky enough to visit quite a few. As I'm sure many of you share my affinity for waterpark fun, It would be interesting to talk about what/where your favorites are and why. Maybe your fav has the most insanely awesome water slide/ride you've ever ridden or is located in the most beautiful setting imaginable - let's hear about it! I'll kick this off with my favorite, Water World in Denver, CO. Why? For several reasons - for starters, at 67 acres it's huge for a waterpark! The grounds are well maintained with hilly terrain which the park takes full advantage of with its many in-house built river rapids style rides. In general, the ride selection is huge and eclectic. Standouts are Voyage to the Center of the Earth and Lost River of the Pharoahs - two amazingly themed raft rides complete with great special effects and animatronics. They also boast an amazing hydromagnetic water coaster and a gigantic wave pool. If you've never been - I highly recommend this place. Honorable mentions: Aquatica - Orlando, FL Kalahari, Sandusky, OH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heth Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Typhoon Lagoon in Walt Disney World - almost entirely because of the massive decorate wave-pool. Honestly when I go there I tend to spend the vast majority of my time in the pool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SFNE Fan Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Water Country-Portsmouth, NH: The slides are AMAZING! If I had to choose, Dragon's Den, The bowl slide, is my favorite. The food is good too, it's difficult to choose my favorite item, though. HONORABLE MENTION: Water Wizz-Wareham, MA:Has a fair amount of slides, some good, some not so great. The food is pretty good as well, the chicken fingers are the best at any water park I've been to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gerstlaueringvar Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Not really into water parks so I skipped quite a lot of decent ones. Schlitterbahn New Braunfels is my favorite, great rides, fairly efficient, nice atmosphere and some old school charm. One thing I don't like is the river water in the old park, it is not fun having all the friends from great mother nature when you are riding Congo River. Honorable mention: Chimelong Waterpark is a pleasant surprise, they run the park very well even though it is the busiest water park in the world. But the rides are too basic and the whole place lacks something special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScreaminNewEngland Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Whale's Tale Water Park in New Hampshire. The perfect line up of slides in the cleanest water park in NE. Plus the mountains surrownding it make the setting a million times better than hurricane harbor or water country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
