A Splashing Start to Our Adventure

As a family travel writer, I’m always on the lookout for destinations that promise both fun and learning for my three kids. When I heard about Aquapark Costa Teguise, the largest water park in Lanzarote, I knew it was a must-visit. We arrived at the park on a sunny August morning, and the excitement was palpable. The park’s sprawling 22,000 square meters were filled with slides, pools, and attractions that beckoned us to dive right in.

The first thing we did was secure a locker for our belongings. The process was straightforward, and I appreciated the option to charge my phone while it was safely stored away. With our essentials tucked away, we were ready to explore. The kids were immediately drawn to the child-friendly areas, where mini slides and a small lagoon promised hours of entertainment. I couldn’t help but smile as I watched them splash around, their laughter echoing through the park.

Thrills and Chills for All Ages

One of the highlights of our visit was the variety of slides available. From the adrenaline-pumping Kamikaze to the more relaxed Hydro tube, there was something for everyone. My eldest, always the thrill-seeker, couldn’t get enough of the Whirlwind slide, while my youngest preferred the gentler child-Kamikaze. The queues were manageable, and we never waited more than seven minutes for a turn, which was a pleasant surprise.

For those moments when we needed a break from the water, the park offered plenty of shaded areas and even a Jacuzzi for some relaxation. I took advantage of these spots to recharge while the kids continued their adventures. We also discovered the indoor paintball arena, a unique feature that added an extra layer of excitement to our day. My middle child, who loves a good challenge, was thrilled to test his skills in the obstacle course.

Practical Tips for a Perfect Day

As always, I like to share some practical tips to ensure a stress-free experience. First, consider bringing pool shoes, as the ground can get quite hot under the sun. Also, if you’re planning to capture memories, the in-house photography service is a great option, offering beautiful pictures without any pressure to purchase.

When it came to meals, the park offered reasonably priced options. We enjoyed a hearty lunch of lasagna and chicken with chips, which kept us fueled for the rest of the day. I also appreciated the availability of bottled water at a fair price, ensuring we stayed hydrated in the heat.

Lastly, don’t forget to take advantage of the discount offered at the nearby aquarium with your aquapark receipt. It’s a wonderful way to extend the fun and learning beyond the water park. Our day at Aquapark Costa Teguise was filled with laughter, adventure, and cherished memories, making it a highlight of our family travels.
