Slide & Splash or Aqualand

Post by kaycee »

Which is best? Been to Aqualand before, but never Slide & Splash. Might try both this year! Only 9 sleeps :D

For me Slide and Splash has the most rides - the Big slide is much quicker than the equivalent at Aqualand - However I think the tube rides at Aqualand are faster than S&S and if you want to be really terrified then the "Banzai" ride at Aqualand is enough to scare anyone!! Think sitting on a tea tray and being thrown down a 1 in 2 mountain...... Also found Aqualand quieter

Having said all that would still choose Slide and Splash if I couldnt do both :D

Slide & Splash.
Also Aquashow the waterpark in Quateira is really good, it has the biggest water coaster in europe & a really, really scary water shoot called the funnel & all sorts of other things, worth a visit.

Another vote for Slide and Splash, the Foam and the Black Hole were always our favourites - you only have to look at the visitor numbers to see which is more popular... Aqualand was quite empty last week.

Its called the Tornado I was handed a flyer about it. It looks amazing. It is to mark their 25 anniversary. I believe it is open now in July......

Is that the same ride they call the snail on their website? Think Tornado sounds rather more exciting! :D

No doubt, Slide & Splash.
Been going since the year it was opened.
This year took my boys for their first trip. Still brings the child out in me!
