As the days heat up, we're all looking for ways to cool off — especially once school ends and there are kids to entertain. But on beautiful summer days, the thought of spending those days inside is just terrible. Instead, head to the best outdoor water park in New Hampshire, which is sure to be fun for the whole family!
Whale's Tale Water Park in Lincoln is absolutely massive, covering 14 acres and including enough attractions to ensure you'll absolutely never get bored.
Probably what most see as the centerpiece, Shipwreck Island is a fantastic feature that alone could entertain you for hours. You definitely aren't going to avoid getting wet on this one!
Always wanted to learn to surf? Check out the Akua Beach attraction, where great instructors can teach you! You can also stick with bodyboarding if you prefer.
Prefer a more leisurely way to cool off? There's a much calmer wave pool for floating, as well as a 1/4 mile long lazy river that you can ride in loops as long as you'd like.
We love attractions that are fun for the whole family, but in New Hampshire, we're often limited to spots that can be enjoyed in warm weather. With unpredictable winters, it's not uncommon for people to get outside as much as they can in the spring and summer. We love our New Hampshire summers, but sometimes it's good to not be held back by the weather. That's just one reason we love this indoor amusement park in New England. Weather doesn't matter and there's no shortage of fun to be had. So wherever you find yourself in the northern region, hop in the car and head to Nashua for a day of family fun.

Fun World in Nashua is the kind of place you visit and are immediately reminded that there's no place better than New Hampshire. A unique attraction, there's so much to do here you'll need an entire day to enjoy it all.
Being located in Nashua, this is an easy spot for many New Englanders to get to. So if you have been furiously searching Google for "amusement parks near me with roller coasters," I have good news for you, friends. We have found the very specific place that you have been looking for and even if you have a little bit of a drive to get here, it is completely worth it.
The entire indoor amusement park in New Hampshire is three stories. That's a lot of room for fun. When you enter, you'll first see the two-story carousel which has been imported from Italy. Here children squeal with delight (maybe a few adults too) as they go round and round.
Next, you'll need to choose where to start. With over 250 video games, that's not an easy task. Guests will find rows and rows of new and old-school games. We are also super happy that they have Halo; have you ever played? This is one of the best arcade games we've played in a long time.
That being said, don't forget the old-school games we all love like skeeball. We have had alot of fierce competition surrounding this simple yet addictive game.
Fun World has three indoor amusement rides, including a rollercoaster. Note that this element isn't always open so be sure to check with them before you visit.
In addition to games and rides, there are also plenty of things to enjoy that will remind kids to play and will remind adults just how fun it is to act like a kid.
Head to Fun World any time you want to enjoy time with friends and family, especially when the weather isn't great for being outdoors. We think the name fits quite nicely and we can attest that it is indeed a fun world inside this castle-shaped attraction.
