As far as I know those are the only 3, although they are building a SeaWorld water park: not sure when this opens though.

sooooooooooo laid back and quieter compared to the other 2, we took our children there as babies and it was just perfect!

I am sure I have read something recently about a Ron Jon waterpark opening soon.

Also, having not been for 6 years - is Water Mania still down the 192??

Adventure Island is the one next to BG, its on the Busch DVD, its seasonal though, check the website. Watermania closed, the grass was growing over and through the remaining bits when we drove past last summer :(

As for the SeaWorld one - Any updates?
It was good going up in the sky tower and seeing the work they were doing on the site. Any current news?

Watermania was a great water park.
I went in 95 and 98 and both times it was not busy. Although it was next to a busy road, 192 (if I remember) it had some great rides.

It was no TL or BB it was great fun. They had a great wave that you could surf or body board.

Oh well... looking forward to Sea World water park
