Del Mar Water Park, Aurora

Del Mar Water Park makes cooling down on hot summer days a breeze. Their water playground offers casual and competitive swimmers a 25-meter, six-lane pool complete with a 12-foot dive well and zero-depth entry. The center's other amenities, meanwhile, include everything from a 181-foot water slide and splashdown pool to a revamped bathhouse featuring family changing rooms for a less-than hectic household adventure.
