Aqualand – Magaluf, Mallorca
This is a large park.With well over 15 slides and many other attractions, if you’re visiting Majorca and are in the west of the island you need to visit this park. From unique slides like the boomerang, black hole and the tornado to the super slaloms and the 8 lane ‘multi-pistas’ there is an attraction for all.They even have a wave pool that can create 1m high waves, also there is a Congo river ride for the people that just want to relax. For the younger children there is the mini park catering in smaller versions of some of the grown up slides
Hidropark – Alcudia, Mallorca
In the east of the island you have the Hidropark in Alcudia. Hidropark is much smaller than the Aqualand but not short of slides. If you really want to make a splash take a trip on the kamikaze, this attraction is not for the faint hearted.This park is miniscule in comparison to Aqualand i’d reccoment going to aqualand due to the sheer size of it.
Aguamar – Playa den Bossa, Ibiza
The White Isle has two worthy waterparks the first, and larger of the two is the Aguamar located just 15 minute bus drive from Ibiza town. The Aguamar has many slides all will depend how daring you are feeling in your quest to cool down. There are around seven types of slides as well as your relaxing rubber ring style slides.They also offer have what other people describe as the high and fast one. This slide is definitely one for the daring.
Agualandia – Talamanca, Ibiza
Talamanca is a family oriented resort that benefits from having Aqualandia nearby. Aqualandia is smaller than the Aguamar and caters more for children with many more children’s slides and lots of sheltered areas.Aqualandia has the very fun multiple lane slides and also the twisty inflatable slides. This is without doubt the family friendly waterpark in Ibiza.
Aquacenter – Los Delfines, Menorca
