Amusement Parks
For families or for the more adventurous, there is the Cedar Point Amusement Park. It has been voted the best amusement park in the world on more than one occasion, and it's a good place to visit if you're in the area. Besides the 16 roller coasters within the park, there is also live entertainment and other rides for the children to enjoy. Nearby to the amusement park is another family favorite; it's called Soak City Water Park. It is separate from the amusement park, but it's part of the same corporation.

Water
For the water enthusiast, there are many things to do. Since Sandusky is on the shores of Lake Erie, sailing or other boating adventures are options. Fishing can be done from the shore or by boat. If the outdoors isn't your thing, there are several indoor water parks at various resorts in the area; you can find them at Castaway Bay and Great Wolf Lodge. These are reserved for guests at the resorts; the only way to participate is to stay there.
