      Throughout Iowa, outdoor enthusiasts can find lakes and beaches, such as Big Spirit Lake and Orleans Beach, where they can go swimming, fishing or boating. Due to the state's climate, Iowa does not provide an ideal location for engaging in outdoor water activities during certain parts of the year, especially the fall and winter. People who are interested in swimming but also enjoy slides, wave pools and other amenities will find indoor water parks in certain regions in Iowa. Some resort hotels in Iowa also feature water parks.
