Water Parks

Wet & Wild is located on International Drive in Orlando only a few tenths of a mile from Universal Studios and is owned and operated by Universal Studios. There are several water rides that are unique to Wet & Wild. The Storm is a water slide where you go down an incline and then get dumped into a apparatus that looks like a funnel (or twister). You go round and round until you lose speed and drop down the middle into a 6ft pool. The Bom Bay is a 76 foot high almost vertical slide where you stand inside a bomb and wait for the lifeguard to release the lever, at which time the small floor beneath you drops out. You can get towed from an overhead pully system and Knee Ski around the Wet & Wild lake.

Typhoon Lagoon is located in the Disney World Resort. The main attraction here is the Wave Pool, where you can experience up to 6 foot waves and get tossed around like a rag doll. The Wave Pool is larger than two football fields. You can swim with sharks and tropical fish in the saltwater Shark Reef. Snorkels are provided at no cost. Even though Typhoon Lagoon doesn't have any extreme water rides, I still vote it a must do water park when in Orlando

 

Blizzard Beach is located in the Disney World Resort and is without a doubt the best water park in Orlando. At 120 feet tall, the Summit Plummet is a extreme water ride where you can reach speeds up to 65 miles per hour. The view from the top of the Summit Plummet is breathtaking, where you can see all 4 Disney Parks, the Sky Coaster in Old Town and more. The more tame Slush Gusher will still take you up to speeds of 35 miles per hour, and if you ride it right you can "catch air" on both of hills on the way down. Don't feel like climbing the stairs all the way to the top of the mountain? Take the only Chair Lift in Orlando to the top!
When you want to relax and get some sun go round and round on the lazy river.
