If you were going to spend a gorgeous warm sunny day at a water park - which one would it be?

Blott I pressed the return key instead of the tab key so I have now added wet and wild.

Isn't there another one in Kissimmee called WaterMania, sister of Wet'n'Wild? Not that I've been there but I just wondered if anyone else did as it's not mentioned very much.

I found Wet 'n' Wild very tacky compared to the Disney two. Its location so close to I-Drive with all the traffic practically next to the big slides is a major-major put off. Moreover, it has hardly any landscaping to speak of and is not as well maintained as the other two. In fact, I rank Wet 'n' Wild below the other water park - Water Mania.

Although I voted for Blizzard Beach, I think Typhoon Lagoon is very close and I might easily have gone the other way on another day. TL has the best landscaping though BB edges it out on the rides.

Typhoon Lagoon for me, watching my wife trying to snorkel and having to be helped by the lifeguard I think I wet my pants laughing

Wet and Wild was a poor relation to both BB + TL and considering someone nicked my sons trainers :( as well (which were not even top notch £4.00 on the market!!!!)I would struggle to want to go back!!

That's just because you're an old wrinkly Nostromo!!!:D:D:D

My teenagers loved it, especially in the evenings when most of the families with little kids had gone home and there were a lot more of their own age group around!!!! A couple of times Wet'n'Wild was open until 11pm. If you've got teenagers, then drop them off for an evening of fun and go somewhere else yourself - they'll enjoy themselves and so will you.
:D:D:D

Why are so many of the Polls that I look at already locked, like this one? It seems that a handful of people vote and then others get locked out. [?][?]

Big fan of Typhoon:Deven though my daughter almost drowned there when she was 3 :(A very scary moment indeed.
But it doesn't stop us going back,needless to say, she swims at a club now and is a good strong swimmer :D:)
