Aquatica questions

[vincev33]

We were planing on going to a Disney water park for a day, but Sea World has a great deal on an unlimited ticket to SW & Aquatica. How does Aquatica compare to the Disney water parks? I really like the fact that we can go more than once to both parks especially since we have a 12 day trip planned. Kids will be 12, 10 & 7.
Thank you!

We are big fans of Aquatica . Its an AWESOME waterpark. Roa's Rapids is one of the best family water features anywhere, and we literally spent hours there on our last visit. Its sooo much fun!

We find Aquatica to be less crowded and more spacious than its Disney counterparts. Its a little more relaxing, a little less hectic. The theming is a little more understated (Australian) but still very prevalent throughout the park. We love the Commerson dolphins and enjoy watching them from the huge viewing area.

Aquatica's kids water play center is far, far, FAR more elaborate than the children's areas at either TL or BB.

We were not fans of Blizzard Beach. We loved Typhoon Lagoon (the wave pool there is just fantastic) but the theming of BB did absolutely nothing for us. Aquatica and TL are tied for our Orlando favourite. We will return to both on our August 2014 trip.
