Review:
California Great America is a large, 100-acre amusement park that is located in Santa Clara, California. The park was originally built in 1976 by the Marriott Corporation; it is now operated and owned by Cedar Fair. The park is home to several coasters, thrill rides, family rides, kid’s rides, WinterFest rides, and a waterpark. Some of the top kid’s rides include the Character Carousel, Gr8 Sk8, Flying Ace, The Pumpkin Patch, and Snoop’s Space Race. The waterpark is a hit with the kids during the warmer months, there they can splash around in the Boomerang Lagoon, ride the waves at the Great Barrier Reef, and zip down the Tasmanian Typhoon.
