Lots of water features, slides etc. Wave pool which is brilliant. Toddlers pool with lots of features. Plenty of water features for people who are not so adventerous. Cafe and gift shop. Go early and spend the whole day there.

This is my second review for Aqualand and we had the best time ever. The day was very overcast in the morning, in fact it had rained a lot in the previous two days, but we still decided to go as it was my son's birthday. When we got there the queue was very short (we go every year we... More

People say Slide n Splash is way better but I am not sure if I agree. The rides are much longer and the board slide is the most thrilling one around. The downside was the kids area which was closed, but personally enjoyed it quite a lot, more than Slide'n'Splash anyway.

Having been to Orlando and experienced their waterparks, I obviously didn't expect the same amazing type of waterparks in Europe. But this was such a boring waterpark, and very dirty. As mentioned you pay 3.50 eur per sun lounger, after already paying for an expensive ticket which you would pay the same in Orlando......I always love waterparks, but felt bored... More

We went to Aqualand and Splash and Slide during our trip. Neither where great. Aqualand is old and looks old. The slides at times where slow because they are worn. The Lazy river is the worst Lazy river I have seen. The wave pool is small but the wave machine operates every hour for 20 minutes which the kids loved.... More

Aqualand is a great water park. Lots of activities for all the family (Note Check if new small childrens area is opened before visit). There are lots of varrying slides for all the family from the tray slide (didnt go on due to height and speed but teenagers will love it) to the slow river. Need ring for two popular... More

My wife, daughter (7 years old) and I spent a very enjoyable day at Aqualand during our recent holiday in Portugal. We booked the trip and transport via the hotel reception (total cost circa 74 euros). The bus that collected us was open topped which we thought was fantastic. I was't so sure that it was a good idea as... More
