Water parks are special places for fun and entertainment, you can visit them together with your family or friends. They offer a great variety of amusements: waterslides, pool bars, swimming pools, restaurants, waterfalls etc. The following list of the top water parks in the USA, will help you to choose the best.

  1. Disney’s Blizzard BeachLocation: within the Walt Disney World resort in Lake Buena Vista, Florida.

    Theme: Melted ski resort.

    Story: This park is a former ski resort so it has its look and feel but actually it is a 66-acre water adventure park and BTW a 100 percent tropical one.

    Attractions:

    With the “snowy” slopes of Mt. Gushmore, this park offers more attractions than any other (just some some):

    • summit plummet – a breathtaking “ski jump” tower;
    • teamboat springs – the world’s longest family white-water raft;
    • slush gusher – a very speed one;

    What is more, Disney’s Blizzard Beach offers a wave pool, children’s play area, lazy river, various snack bars and this list is not full.

  2. Water Slide WorldLocation: Lake George, New York.

    Theme: Slides, SLides, SLIdes, SLIDes, SLIDEs, SLIDES, SLIDES…

    Story: Just the biggest water park on the East Coast, offering a great variety of slides, pools and good mood.

    Attractions: Hurrican Harbor – Wave Pool, Blue Bomber Slide, 2 Pirate’s Plunge Slides, Fantasy Island Activity Pool with Water Volleyball, 2 Tasmanian Twister Slides and etc.

  3. Typhoon LagoonLocation: near Downtown Disney West Side.

    Theme: looks like a ship-wrecked island, the village crowded with numerous cargo, surfboards and other marine wreckage after a great storm.

    Story: it was the biggest and most popular water park on property before the Disney’s Blizzard Beach opening.

    Attractions: (just 3 of them)

    • Humunga Kowabunga (travel through caves at a speed up to 30 mph);
    • Castaway Creek (a 2100-foot continuous river raft with picturesque landscapes);
    • “Crush “N” Gusher” (a brand-new breathtaking ride).

    What I like the most about this water park is its theme, a really nice village right after the storm, everything complies with an overall motif.

  4. Mount Olympus Water ParkLocation: a waterpark complex in Wisconsin Dells, WI, US.

    Theme: ancient times, gods, stones…

    Story: it is the biggest water and theme park in Wisconsin Dells.

    Attractions:

    • Blue magnum body slides (include various slides and ask you to be careful in order not to wipe out);
    • Thunder and lighting (you can find your own thunder or just steal someone’s);
    • speed slides (one of the world’s steepest water slides, it’s almost straight and offers 85-foot drop. Seems like you are in a free fall).

  5. Noah’s ArkLocation: Wisconsin Dells Parkway, Wisconsin Dells, WI.

    Theme: residing on 70 acres, Noah’s Ark, America’s Largest Waterpark.

    Story: it has everything: 47 waterslides, endless rivers, children’s areas, pools. Their motto sounds optimistic: Summer just isn’t summer without a trip to Noah’s Ark. You see, it’s no use to visit Thailand or any other exotic country.

    Attractions:

    • congo bongo;
    • bahama falls;
    • dark anaconda – the most thrilling one.

Giethoorn – Village in Holland with No Roads

We were house-sitting for my cousin in Coevorden and had the use of their car. We drove all over The Netherlands. There is a parking lot at the entrance to the village. Just park and walk in. It's well worth the trip.
