Water Mania offers over 36 acres of wild raft rides, thrilling slides, twisting flumes, adventurous pools, and a three acre wooded picnic area. This park may not be as high profile as other water parks of Orlando, but the area devoted to kids here is twice more than in any other water park in Central Florida. Water Mania is dedicated to kids' enjoyment.

You'll find a variety of aquatic attractions in this 36-acre water park. You can boogie board or body surf in the wave pools, float lazily along an 850-foot river, enjoy a white-water tube run on Riptide, and spiral down the Twin Tornadoes water slide. If you dare, ride The Screamer, a 72-foot freefall speed slide, or the Abyss, an enclosed tube slide that corkscrews through 380 feet of darkness, exiting into a splash pool. There's a rainforest-themed water playground for kids, a miniature golf course, and a picnic area with arcade games, volleyball, and a beach. Note: This park has fewer thrill rides than Disney's Typhoon Lagoon and Blizzard Beach or Wet 'n' Wild (listed a bit later), so it has fewer teens and young adults, making it more attractive to older adults or families with younger kids. Allow 4 to 5 hours. Tubes, towels, and lockers are all available for rent for a small fee and a $1 deposit ($2.15 for a towel, $5-$6.45 for a tube, $4.30-$6.45 for a locker; a child-size life vest can be rented at no charge).Thrill Rides

The Screamer (72 feet) and the Double Berzerker (66 feet) are the park's main speed slides. They send the thrill seekers straight down with a splashing finish.

Twin Tornadoes: with two flumes to choose from, guests can pick their course as they charge head first down 320 feet of twists and turns with only a mat between them and this adventurous slide.

Wipe Out: you don't have to be a surfer to enjoy this high intensity thrill attraction. Grab a body board and ride this continuous perfect wave. Water Mania is proud to be the first water park in the Southeastern United States to feature this fantastic continuous wave attraction.

The Anaconda: exactly what the name implies, the Anaconda is a snake-like flume that takes family tubers from a 50-foot tower down 400 feet of massive fun. It literally takes your breath away.

The Abyss: guests tumble in darkness through a swirling mass of blue tubing. The ride isn't as dark as the Black Hole at Wet'n'Wild, but is still pretty good.

Cruisin' Creek: floating swiftly along this 850 foot tropical river which winds around several of the park's main rides. It's nice attraction for all ages, especially for children.

Whitecaps Wave Pool: guests can jump right into 720,000 gallons of water and bounce along on the continuous bubbling waves, with or without a tube.

The Rain Train: life sized brightly colored locomotive, which sits in zero depth water to make it easier for kids to hop aboard. Water sprays from the "Rain Train's" stack, wheels and slides. Adjacent to the train is a variety of fun interactive play elements.

The Rain Forest: this paradise for children's game and fantasies includes slides, fountains, water guns, and an immense pirate ship.

The Electric Arcade: the latest in electronic game excitement is available near the entrance to the park.
