Which water park should our group visit?

[DumboDash2006]

Going in early March with another family, staying at Windsor Hills in a pool home (we've stayed there before). We have one non Disney park day planned and we're thinking we might like to do a water park.

We will have four middle age adults and four college age young adults. Us parents would like a nice lazy river and maybe a few group raft and tamer tube slides. The young adults vary but probably would like more adventurous slides/rides but nothing really extreme. Disney or non Disney.

All input appreciated, thanks! ETA the dads in the group will want drinks, so a bar is important!

In early March, it may be too cold to go to a water park, so don't plan on it 100%. Have a backup plan.

Blizzard Beach and Aquatica would both fit your needs. Aquatica might be cheaper, but you would have to pay for parking.

I like Typhoon Lagoon, but it isn't open now and I don't know if it will be open by March.

We have always had water park APs at Disney pre shut down, but with that said.... if you don't have any young children, I would go to Volcano Bay.

I agree Volcano Bay is perfect. My husband and I spent a week in Orlando without our teen boys. We bought a 3 day pass to Universal and spent all 3 days at Volcano Bay. Amazing. The not so lazy river, as we like to call it was so much fun!

If Typhoon Lagoon is open, either there or Volcano Bay. Get a cabana if you can. Absolutely worth it

We are waterpark people,, and have been to all the parks you have mentioned multiple times (except Volcano Bay, that was a one and done for us). I would vote Aquatica, 100%. It checks every box on your wish list and has the best "lazy" River in Roa's Rapids (plus a traditional slower river if that's more your speed).

Check the pre Black Friday sale happening this weekend for excellent prices on tickets and cabanas.

What are the best water parks if you have kids under 10?
