Let’s take a look at each activity in more detail.

Swimming Pools

The park features 3 different swimming pools: a splash pool (Depth: 1.3 meters), a kids pool (Depth: 80cm) and a family pool (Depth: 1.4 meters). You and the kids can have some splashing fun and cool down on those hot summer days.

Mini Wobbler and Mini Speedster

This is the mini version of the long slide and just as much fun for the youngsters. These slides don’t have an age restriction, but you must be at least 1.2 metres and don’t exceed the weight of 90kg to enjoy those slides. Adults are not allowed to slide down with a child. They do have a strict policy of one rider at a time only.
