Can anyone reccomend a family oriented water park in San Diego or LA area. We have been to Hurricane Harbor in NJ and my 13 year old daughter is seeking more thrills! We will be visiting in mid August.

Thanks

I also meant to ask about theme parks or amusement parks in San Diego, LA, SLO, Monterrey, Santa Cruz or SF. Other than Disney and the major ones, are there any anyone can suggest? Thanks again.

Bonfante Gardens

Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk

There are no theme parks in the SF area. The closest one to SF would be Marine World in Vallejo (Oakland area)

There's another Hurricane Harbor at Six Flags Magic Mountain, just north of LA on the I-5.

Soak City - Knotts Berry Farm (theme park) in Buena Park

Raging Waters - San Dimas, east of LA (a little out of the way)

The Boardwalk in Santa Cruz is a great place if you are interested in ammusement parks that are a little different than the norm. It's right on the beach, and has a great wooden rollercoaster that I believe is a historical landmark.
