You probably aren’t going all the way to Alaska to spend time indoors, but kids of all ages will beg to spend a few hours at this indoor water park that’s billed as “a tropical island in the last frontier.” Daredevils are drawn to the Master Blaster uphill water coaster, wave pool, water cannons, body slide, and flume. More tame pursuits include the lazy river, water drop fountain, and children’s lagoon and pirate ship. Visiting in the winter? Have no fear. The water park’s air temperature always hovers around 86 degrees with water at a feel-good 80 degrees. An on-site snack bar serves pizza, hamburgers and hotdogs, salads, and more. Cost: $23.99, adults; $18.99, ages 3 through 12; free for children under 2.
