If you are looking for a day at a waterpark, Big Kahunas is a lot of fun. It is least busy if you go right away when they open on Sunday. If you are going more than once, check on line for the season pass that includes parking!

My friend owns this and people love it - it is a catamaran tour for up to 6 guests. So much fun! Captain Pam has a cooler with ice, you bring some food and beverages and sail around. She'll take you to great swimming spots, catch a suntan or book for a sunset tour. Can't recommend this enough!

This is a great spa if you want to spend the day using the hot tub, pool, eat lunch, etc. It's a bit of a drive so if you are visiting in the summer I would do a google search and find one closer to home. If you are coming for a wedding, bachelorette or event like that, book in advance...this is where I'd recommend!
