If you are buying a say, 7 day
BASE ticket + water parks option, that allows you to visit 1 park per day and/or 1 "fun" admission (water park, Disney Quest, etc.) per day. You need the park hopper option to park hop.
The explanation from
Undercover Tourist:
Admission to one or more of the following theme parks for each day of the ticket - 5 "Days" (1 park per day; no hopping between the four parks listed immediately below):
Magic Kingdom®
Epcot®
Disney's Hollywood Studios
Disney's Animal Kingdom®
Choose a visit to one of the following for each of your 5 "Fun Visits":
Blizzard Beach
Typhoon Lagoon
Disney's Oak Trail Golf Course (tee time reservations are required and subject to availability)
DisneyQuest® Indoor Interactive Theme Park
Disney's Wide World of Sports® Complex (valid only on event days; some events require an additional admission charge)
Key Points:
If you were to visit Blizzard Beach & Typhoon Lagoon then you have used 2 "Fun Visits". If you visit a Theme Park and then a Water Park (both on the same day or not), that would be 1 "Day" and 1 "Fun Visit" used up.
Ticket expires 14 days after the date of first use - you activate it by entering your 1st park.
Days do not have to be used consecutively.
Water Parks are subject to seasonal closure.
Parking is not included, but the FastPass is; all Disney tickets sold include it.
Visiting more than one Theme Park on the same day requires the "Park Hopper" Option (available above and the tickets cost more). You cannot hop by using 2 days of your ticket to hop on the same day.
On the back of your ticket(s) it will say "W/5 FUN VISITS", because there is not enough room to print "Water Park Fun & More".
HTH!
