  • This is my overview of Aquatica Orlando in 2023 covering all slides and attractions, including Reef Plunge, Ray Rush, KareKare Curl and Ihu's Breakaway Falls.
    Aquatica Orlando is family friendly water park owned and operated by SeaWorld Parks & Entertainment situated adjacent to the SeaWorld Orlando and Discovery Cove parks on International Drive, and spans 59 acres themed to the south pacific, featuring a variety of water attractions, slides, wave pools, lazy rivers and encounters with marine life, and boasts a new (or revampled) attraction every year, whihc guests can enjoy on a single day ticket that ranges between 47.99 and 60 dollars (before tax).

    MINI REVIEW & TIPS:
    Pros:
    - Cheaper single day admission compared to Volcano Bay and Disney World Water Parks
    - Great deals when purchasing multi park tickets
    - Doesn't require virtual queues like Volcano Bay
    - New or revamped attraction every year
    - The atmosphere feels a lot more laid back, mainly due to it being more of a locals park
    Cons:
    - Theming inferior to Volcano Bay and Disney World water park
    - Expect many dining locations to be closed during off peak times.
    - Outragous parking and locker charges
    - Quick queue system not managed well
    - Prices inside more expensive than Volcano Bay and Universal Parks
    - strict food policy
    - Questionable value from all day dining deal due to closures and long lines
    Tips:
    - arrive before park opening
    save money by getting a multi park ticket
    - book ticket in advance
    - don't use the first lockers
    - during busy summer months, use the lockers near riptide race, or the ones near Ihu's Breakaway
    - bring a waterproof phone case
    __________________________________________________________
    TICKETS/HIDDEN CHARGES INFO:
    - Tickets directly from Aquatica - aquatica.com/orlando/tickets/
    - In the US, I recommend purchasing tickets from Undercovertourist.com, and in the UK I recommend purchasing from Floridatix or Attraction Tickets.
    Hidden Charges:
    - Parking charges ($30 before tax)
    - Locker Chargers ($30 small, $40 medium, $50 large)

It’s so beautiful down here but I don’t know how to drive which sucks because I am in my parents house often and don’t go to places I would love to go to only sometimes. I wish I can go to all the beautiful places in Florida and travel to places that are like paradise. It would make me so happy if I travel and go everywhere that I would enjoy to visit. Hopefully one day I do

    We went here in 2017 and it was by far our favorite Orlando water park. With that said our kids couldnt do a lot of the slides in the parks so that may have skewed our judgement. We are returning to orlando in 2024 and are very interested to see how the parks stack up this time.

    I would have loved to enjoy this yesterday. The Aquatica app said the park was open on Tuesday, January 29, 2024. Me and the lyft driver went there only to discover that the park was closed for inclement weather and it was near 70 degrees and clear blue skies. I would wind up going to Blizzard Beach instead. Update your app Aquatica. I go to BGW and don't experience this. I wanted to enjoy Aquautica but not anymore. Forget me renewing my Pass to all the parks. It will just have to be local.

      Rosen Inn Pointe Orlando is amazing. We have stayed there 3x and every time was fantastic. They have an all you can eat breakfast buffet that's amazing and they also have an all you can eat dinner buffet that's different nightly. They have a bar with 🎤 on the weekends, 3 pools, a store that stays open 24/7 for snacks and drinks, and a couple of bars by the pools. If you book via the hopper app and book after 9-10pm you get the cheapest rates. We booked for 5 days for 360$ and ended up extending for another 4 days for 280$ so not bad on the prices.

    aquatica and volcano bay are the best water parks in Florida mostly because slides are only so thrilling and i thing volcano bay pushes it to the max and Aquatica pushes to the max for family's
    the other thing that makes these parks nice is the saff usually is much friendlier or chill (Disney staff sucks in the summer time during the collage internship program just rude collage kids)
