Find the Action at Williamsburg Theme Parks

Williamsburg theme parks offer exciting action and adventure to visitors of this historic area. The two primary theme parks are Busch Gardens and Water Country USA, both of which draw thousands of tourists every year.

Busch Gardens is something every tourist should see. This park features the Griffon roller coaster, which takes riders 200 feet high before dropping them at speeds of 70 miles an hour. Riders on Apollo's Chariot briefly experience weightlessness as they soar up and down at 73 miles per hour. For an amazing display of visual trickery and pyrotechnic special effects you should stop by the Curse of DarKastle. If you need a break from all of the fast-paced action, visit Busch Gardens' numerous stores and restaurants where you can catch your breath.

Water Country USA is another of the popular Williamsburg theme parks. Here the focus is on wet and watery fun. For a ride the entire family can enjoy, try Aquazoid. This ride allows up to four people to ride on the same raft as it drifts through dark tunnels and waterfalls. Jet Scream will indeed get your heart pumping, and probably have you screaming before it ends.

On this ride you speed down 415 feet at 25 miles an hour, landing in a big pool with a grand splash. Cow-a-Bunga is for the littlest adventurers. It features interactive activities, pools, fountains, and a bubble area to keep the kids entertained. After all of the excitement, you can relax and watch the 20-minute water show featuring divers and acrobats.
