Six Flags While there are no major destination theme parks in Georgia (for those you could head south to Florida and visit places like Universal Orlando or Disney World), there are some big regional amusement parks (and smaller ones as well). There are also plenty of water parks, which is a great thing since it can get mighty hot and humid in the state. Water parks and amusement parks in Georgia are listed alphabetically. 01 of 15 Andretti Indoor Karting & Games in Buford and Marietta Andretti Indoor Karting & Games Go-karts are the main attraction at the two family entertainment centers. They also offer laser tag, 7-D interactive theaters, bowling, motion simulators, virtual reality, arcade games, and full-service restaurants. The Buford location opened in 2021. 02 of 15 The Beach at International Park in Jonesboro Clayton County Parks and Recreation Outdoor water park Located at Clayton County International park, The Beach is a medium-sized, municipal park with a few water slides, an adventure kiddie pool, and a spring-fed lake.

The 2021 expansion is also adding an indoor recreation center with a saltwater pool. 03 of 15 Fun Spot America in Fayetteville Fun Junction USA Indoor and outdoor amusements Fun Spot America is more of a family entertainment center than an amusement park.
