June-gloom is finally over and summertime is here in San Diego, California! No AC? No problem! Cool off from the heat by visiting the best water parks in or around San Diego. No matter what age you are, the feeling of zipping down waterslides and splashing through the park is exhilarating. Or if you’d rather something slower-paced, relax along the lazy river.
