Winter weather got you down? For some bathing-suit fun without a trip to Florida, visit one of Jersey’s indoor water parks. The Hotel ML CoCo Key Water Resort (877-494-2626; mtlaurelcocokey.com) offers a wading pool for little ones, adults-only whirlpools for parents, and six slides, an aquatic jungle gym and a 300-foot lazy river for everyone in-between. To test your surfing skills, head to Sahara Sam’s Oasis in West Berlin (856-767-7580; saharasams.com), home of the region’s only indoor surfing simulator. The park also features a ropes course, a family raft ride and the H20 Beach Club with cocktails, beer and flat-screen televisions so a family outing doesn’t mean missing the big game. Best of all, both parks offer changing rooms, lockers and showers, full food menus to refuel the family, and certified lifeguards to keep everyone safe as they splash around—even if there’s snow outside. Aloha!
