Let’s hear it for summer! Hip…hip…HOORAY! Longer, sunnier days are the norm now that the unofficial start of summer has arrived. Of course, we’ll still get those sweltering, humid days when we feel as though we’re going to melt. Good news, though. PA promises plenty of fun ways to stay cool all summer long. So, beat the heat and have a blast doing so with a visit to this fun, wacky, and action-packed water park in Pennsylvania.

Pack up the car and the kids and head to Waldameer and Water World, which has been named the 10th Best Water Park in the United States by Trip Advisor.

Waldameer & Water World

Keep an eye out for these adorable fuzzy ones as you claim your beach chair at Water World. Or, splurge and rent a cabana (or an umbrella) for the day. Cabanas are available by the wave pool and by the beach.

Then, kick off your adventure at the Battle of Lake Erie, a spectacular spot that boasts more than 100 water attractions. Get soaked when a 400-gallon bucket tips its water onto you. Or, zip down one of the attraction’s seven slides.

Of course, you might get lost on the Bermuda Triangle, dual slides that culminate in a drop in a shimmering splash pool.

Other popular Water World Attractions include the Cannon Bowl, the Free Fall Slide, and the Speed Slide. Kids will also find plenty to do at the Kidz Zone, which features eight water slides.

Water World’s all about action. But, you’ll also have plenty of time to relax. Grab an inner tube, and float down the Endless River.

Or, wade in the heated pool before jumping into the Giant Wave Pool that’s filled with half a million gallons of water. Just be forewarned: The waves climb as high as four feet.
