What the Park Offers
The core of this experience is the water slides. The park boasts over 40 slides and extreme rides, so whether you want to shoot down high-speed coasters like the Typhoon Coaster or float along the lazy river, there’s plenty to choose from. One reviewer points out that the rides are fun, though some moderate ones might not satisfy thrill-seekers looking for the biggest drops.
The wave pool adds a beach-like feeling, and the Secret Lagoon offers a tranquil hideaway. For families, dedicated kids’ splash zones and mini slides are a highlight. Parents often appreciate that children’s areas are safe and engaging, though staff reserve the right to limit access to some rides for infants or toddlers if deemed unsafe.
The Shows and Entertainment
The live dolphin and beluga whale shows are a major draw. These performances are educational and entertaining, appealing to all ages. Travelers mention these shows as a definite highlight, describing them as “incredible” and “captivating.” Keep in mind, if you’re interested in the evening show, it typically starts around 23:00, but during early season months (April and May), shows may close earlier, and some activities might not be open yet.
The 5D cinema adds an extra layer of fun, immersing you in a multi-sensory experience that complements the water park activities.
Shopping and Food
The Avenue area is more than just a shopping street; it’s an experience in itself. You can browse luxury brands, buy souvenirs, or enjoy a coffee break in one of the cafes. However, be aware that food and drinks inside the park are not included in your ticket price, and prices tend to be on the higher side. A reviewer noted that a meal at the buffet cost around 1950 TL per person, which is something to budget for.
While there are various fast food and international options, lines can be long during peak hours, and the cost can add up. Pack a little extra for snacks if you’re on a tight budget.
