Seabreeze

Seabreeze Amusement Park is in Rochester and combines two parks on one property. During the summer months, the water park is a favorite destination, with a wave pool, water slides, children’s play area, and lazy river. Next door you’ll find roller coasters, thrill rides, family classics, and kiddie rides that are open from May to September. Whirlwind is one of the favorite roller coasters in the park, giving riders a thrilling experience on a winding track that soars to new heights.

Six Flags Great Escape and Splashwater Kingdom

Located in Queensbury, this park is the favorite for thrill-seekers and families alike. A new coaster opened in 2016 that offers a virtual reality experience that allows riders to feel like they are flying upside down and backwards. Greezed Lightnin’ is another new attraction that includes a seven-story loop that gives a weightless feeling. In September the park hosts Oktoberfest with festive foods, German music and dancing, and refreshing seasonal brews. If you love spooky events, visit the park in October for Fright Fest. You can even participate in a zombie-themed 5K run.

Spending the day at an amusement park is a classic pastime for people across the country. If you’re a New York resident or are planning a visit to the state, spend some time at an amusement park and create memories with loved ones.
