How busy is Aquatica compared to BB?

We went to Blizzard Beach last Wednesday and had a fab day as it wasn’t too busy. We’re thinking of going to Aquatica tomorrow but we want to have a chilled day and don’t fancy queuing for the slides.

Has anyone been recently and know how busy it gets?

We were there a week ago and it was relatively quiet, loads of sun beds available and hardly any queuing. It was so quiet that they closed one of the two main pools, to save on lifeguards I presume.
We really liked it there.

We were there yesterday. Place was pretty much empty very little in the way of queues we were the only people in the lazy river at one point. A few people in roas rapids. They weren’t selling the quick queue passes as it was too quiet

We were there yesterday and pretty much non existent queues for everything and plenty of beds

Aquatica always seems quiet.

Cannot see if changing

Disney Guests will do Disney Water parks

Universal Guests will do Volcano bay

I’d agree, each time weve been to Aquatica in summer it’s been busy (but manageable). It’s a popular waterpark.

In July this year it was absolutely heaving.
My boys would not have got on hardly any, if any rides if I hadn't got them the wristbands

Huge huge queues.
I also got the private lounger area at the front of the beach pools. I don't think I would have enjoyed it if not for these extras.
