People always ask me for cool facts about the park so I compiled a list you can share with your friends.

I know the rumors have been circling for some time, and today I want everyone to know the wait is almost over. Soon, we’ll unveil our two-year expansion plan for Busch Gardens and Water Country USA.

We’re re-imagining the look and feel of some of the most recognizable areas of Busch Gardens, and we’re revitalizing both parks with new attractions for your enjoyment. Here’s a video to whet your appetite …

I have two little boys so we visit Water Country USA many times during the summer. Small children don’t like to wait long lines, so we always have a plan for our day.

This summer has been a hot one, but it's nice to work at a water park, because when it gets too hot, you can always cool off in one of our many pools. The water always looks so refreshing when it's warm.

Our Shallow Water Guards and Lifeguards wear bathing suits and can enjoy cooling off throughout the day.

If you've had the opportunity to visit Water Country USA this summer, you may have noticed some new inhabitants. With the park's fun and beachy atmosphere, our tropical birds are fitting right in. The parrots are perched to the right of the Jet Scream entrance. Just follow the squawking.

It's been really fun to watch the birds explore their new environment as well as see the guest's reactions.

When most people think about eating at a theme park they think about hamburgers and pizza. What most people don't realize is that we offer healthier dining options at Water Country USA, as well.

Guest can find healthier dining options around the park including sub sandwiches and homemade chips, to fresh watermelon, strawberries and melon. Even lighter options such as salads are also scattered around the water park that include healthy sides.

My favorite place to eat at the park is Launch Pad. I love the variety of subs. They carry everything from Italian to chicken salad.
