There is nothing we like more than spending a fun day with the family. That's why we have something that will make both you and the little ones of the house, enjoy like never before in pools and water slides ... In a water park!

This plan is perfect to remedy the days when the heat of the south of the peninsula hits hard; and leave aside the monotony of the beach. Although it is true that when we talk about the coves of Costa Tropical there is nothing that can resist them.

However, if you are spending a few days in Granada you can’t miss the opportunity to come and have fun, as we have said, to one of its most famous water parks. It is located in the municipality of Almuñécar, a place where your aquatic experience will be something memorable.

You are probably already wondering what kind of attractions you will find here or what are the requirements to enjoy its facilities, so don't stop reading, here we tell you all about it!

Where are the best water parks in Almuñécar?

We have to tell you that Almuñécar is one of the largest municipalities of Granada and, therefore, the one that welcomes more tourists during the summer. However, here you will only find one water park, but be careful! We are sure that it will be difficult for you to find a better one, because its facilities are very complete.

In addition to offering attractions for all ages, which we will explain in detail below, those who are not very fond of these places and don’t want to live an aquatic experience can relax in the chillout area and lie on their comfortable loungers. They can also wait for a drink in one of the restaurants or even start to organize a picnic overlooking the sea in one of the areas provided for this purpose so that adventurers can regain strength in the best way.

Undoubtedly, this place has room for everyone and has all the amenities to spend a great day with your family and friends. Not to mention its location between the beaches of Fuentepiedra and Tropical, which will allow you to enjoy the best of the attractions while contemplating the grandeur of the Mediterranean.

What attractions are there in the water park of Almuñécar?

- Waterfalls: there is nothing better than cooling off in a quiet way than feeling the water falling on your body. Here you will find 2 waterfalls perfect to approach with the little ones and enjoy splashing. They will have a great time in the water tower, where a huge bucket gradually fills up with water and when its turns around... Splash!

- Slides: but if what you want is to experience adrenaline to the fullest and slide down the best water slides, this is your ideal option. These facilities have up to 9 different types, so you will find the one that best suits your tastes. They are completely designed for you to live the most frenetic experience, so you can’t miss the opportunity to go and enjoy those with a zigzag course or the famous kamizake, where you will reach a dizzying speed before ending up submerged in the pool. The best thing is that you can rent floats that you can ride with two other people to make it even more fun. In addition, it is a great way for children to be accompanied by their parents and feel safe at all times.

- Swimming pools: is there anything better than relaxing in a jacuzzi full of jets? Surely not! It's the perfect area to reach your zen side after the thrill of the slides. You'll also find super fun pools where you can challenge your friends in a water shooting battle or move to the rhythm of the waves. The pools are the best option for the little ones, since there is a children's area where they can use their floats and armbands without any problem.

What is the minimum age to go to the water park in Almuñécar?

First of all, you should know that everyone can access the facilities and enjoy the way they want. However, the minimum age to dive into the water and start enjoying the children's area is 4 years old. In addition, you will find attractions, especially the slides, which require a minimum height of 1.10 meters or 1.20 meters in most cases. Although in the pools and waterfalls, children who don’t reach that height can still have fun as long as they are accompanied by an adult.

What do I have to bring to a water park?

This may seem like a silly question, but believe us, as we sometimes don't read these types of guides beforehand, we often forget some of the essential things we need to take with us to spend the day here. Obviously, swimwear is the most important thing and a few spear clothes so you can change and not be wet when you stop for lunch. And what we always leave at home, but which is also essential, is sunscreen. With the amount of hours you are going to spend in the sun it is essential that you smear yourself well with sunscreen. And if you want to be the envy of all your friends and upload the best photos to social networks, you can bring a good waterproof phone case and go in the water with it without any problem.

When is the best time to go to a water park in Almuñecar?

The Costa Tropical stands out for having a very pleasant temperature throughout the year, but as we want your experience to be the as best as possible and that you don’t get any surprises after organizing your plan, we have to tell you that these facilities are only open during the summer months, from June to September. We know it's a shame not to be able to enjoy this plan during the rest of the year, but we are sure that this way you will have an even better time and you will be looking forward to summer every day.

Now that we have solved all your doubts, we just hope you come to Almuñécar to enjoy this amazing water park and have a great day full of fun, we are waiting for you!
