A Splashing Day for All Ages

As a travel writer and a mother of three, I am always on the lookout for family-friendly destinations that cater to all age groups. Our recent visit to Aqua Natura Water Park in Benidorm was a delightful experience that ticked all the boxes for a fun-filled family day. With my children aged 6, 15, and 17, I was eager to see if this water park could entertain everyone, including myself.

We visited on a sunny day in early September, and to our pleasant surprise, the park was not crowded. This allowed us to enjoy the rides multiple times without the usual long waits. The park is thoughtfully designed with an open layout, making it easy for parents to keep an eye on their children while they explore the various attractions. From thrilling water slides to a relaxing sun deck, Aqua Natura offers something for everyone.

Navigating the Park with Ease

One of the highlights of our visit was the wave pool, which provided endless entertainment for my younger child. The gentle waves were perfect for him to splash around safely, while my teenagers enjoyed the more adventurous slides. The park’s layout is intuitive, with clear signage and pathways leading to different sections, making it easy to navigate even for first-time visitors.

I appreciated the availability of changing rooms and beach bars, which added to the convenience of our day. However, a small note for fellow glasses-wearers: I was asked to remove my glasses even when sitting in the water, which was a bit inconvenient. It’s something to keep in mind if you rely on them as I do.

Practical Tips for a Perfect Day

Aqua Natura offers sun loungers for a fee, but we were fortunate not to be charged during our visit. If you’re planning a trip, it might be worth checking in advance about any additional costs. The food options were decent and reasonably priced, which is always a relief when traveling with a family.

For those looking to capture memories, the park offers waterproofing for phones at a small fee, but note that recording on slides is not permitted. Taxis are readily available outside the park, making it easy to return to your hotel after a day of fun.

Overall, our day at Aqua Natura was a resounding success. The park’s diverse attractions and family-friendly atmosphere make it a must-visit for anyone traveling to Benidorm with children. Whether you’re seeking thrills or relaxation, Aqua Natura has it all, ensuring a memorable experience for the entire family.
