CICI
The family water-sports park, CICI, is on the east side of Acapulco. Dolphins perform daily at 2pm (admission M$10), and humans occasionally give diving exhibitions. You can also swim with dolphins yourself (M$1350 per hour) or enjoy an 80m-long water toboggan (tube rental per person M$30), a pool with artificial waves or the Sky Coaster (per person M$150) giant swing ride. Any local bus marked ‘CICI, ’ ‘Base’ or ‘Puerto Marqués’ will take you here.

Discovery Cove
Attendance is limited, ensuring Discovery Cove retains the feel of an exclusive tropical resort, complete with beaches, a fish-filled reef and an aviary. No high-speed thrills or frantic screaming, just blessed relaxation and the chance to swim with dolphins. The price is steep, but everything is included: buffet lunch, beer, towels, parking, even a day pass to SeaWorld.

Formosa Fun Coast
In the shadow of Bali's Kuanyin Mountain sits this ancient park replete with cultural treasures dating back to the Ming…oh, who are we kidding? It's a water park, filled with rides, wave pools, and slides so hellishly steep that when you stand on the platform looking out over at Kuanyin Mountain in the distance (we didn't make that part up) you may say a short prayer to the goddess herself before throwing yourself over to gravity's tender mercies. Culturally significant? Not really. Hell of a lot of fun? Hell yes! Try to plan your trip on a weekday for maximum ride/minimum queue time.

Aquatica
Orlando's latest water park is newer, cleaner and prettier than the others, but in the end, it's the same combination of lazy rivers, splash zones, wave pools and slippery slides that everyone looks for.
