Splashdown Waterpark is a great day out for family and friends. There’s something for everyone – from big kids to little ones – with some of the UK’s most exciting waterflumes.

For the thrill-seekers, brave the Screamer with its sheer vertical drop. Plunge into darkness on the Black Thunder. Or why not slide into a disco on Wave105's Infinity, a ride where you spin right round to some of your favourite records whilst observing a spectacular light show. Or if that sounds a bit like hard work, just go with the flow on the Mississippi Drifter.

You should be at least 1m tall and confident in water to ride the flumes but with Ricky’s Reef, little ones aged 6 and under not ready for a waterpark experience can enjoy this 1m deep learner pool; interactive waterplay especially for under 8’s; sun terraces; bubble spa and Café, there’s sure to be something for everyone.

We’re open all year with indoor rides in the winter. In the spring, we take the slide outside where the Mississippi Drifter pours into the Grand Canyon. And, in May, bring on the awesome Screamer Tower – it’s fluming good fun!

Opening times vary so please check out our website before you visit.
