Families in Daytona who cannot decide between theme park and waterpark should visit the Daytona Lagoon near the boardwalk. Here, attractions like water slides, go-karts, laser tag and minigolf will keep little adventurers busy for hours.
ATTRACTIONS AT DAYTONA LAGOON
THE WATERPARK
Of course, little tadpoles will want to head for the Lagoon´s waterpark. Here, 5 exciting slides await you, each with their unique features:
- Blackbeard´s Revenge: On this fast-paced slide full of turns, up to 3 people race down on inflatable boats.
- Poseidon´s Pass: This one-person slide will send you twisting and turning through partially enclosed pipes.
- Kraken´s Revenge: Rush towards the water head-first on your colorful mat racer.
- Adventure Mountain: The park´s tallest slide features 2 enclosed pipes that will send you down almost vertically.
- Shaka Half Pipe: Ride your inflatable boat straight up, then backwards again – just like in a skateboarding halfpipe.
If you want to relax, just float around on the lazy river Pelican´s Drift. In addition to thrilling rides, the park offers many attractions for little guests: Children can splash around on the water playground Castaway with its 4 miniature slides, water pistols and jungle gym. The giant refillable bucket with 1000 gallons of water provides a refreshing shower every 2 minutes. Old and young visitors will love the ups and downs in the wave pool Treasure Lagoon.
FAMILY ENTERTAINMENT CENTER
The Daytona Lagoon is not merely a waterpark. The fun continues at the Mega Arcade with more than 70 exciting games for all ages. Do you like fast-paced duels in the dark? Then the laser tag is perfect for you. For some vertical fun, try the Sky Maze parcours or the Rock Wall. No theme park in the “Motorsports Capital” would be complete without go-karts. Even the youngest racing fans can join the ride while their parents are driving. The free-fall tower Island Hopper will drop you down 23 feet, so be prepared to scream. And if you are looking for some laid-back fun, you should try out the minigolf course.
