In the heat of summer, it’s not a bad idea just to throw on a swimsuit and spend a day in the pool and on water rides. At Water Country USA, two hours from Washington, D.C. in Williamsburg, VA, you can find a whole lot of both.
There are eight different major rides of all kinds for adults. You can get wet and scream in a four-person raft on Big Daddy Falls or Aquazoid; a three-person inner tube on Meltdown; a two-person tube on Wild Thang or Malibu Pipeline; a solo tube on Jet Scream; a toboggan on Rampage; or a racing mat on Nitro Racer. There are tons of body surfing water slides too, plus a giant wave pool.
There are also tamer slides for younger kids (or parents carrying younger kids), along with a host of other wet attractions like water playgrounds and the slow-moving Lazy River. And make sure to check out the acrobatic dive show five times a day.
