Aqualand Costa Adeje

Aqualand Costa Adeje is a water park in Costa Adeje, on the south coast of Tenerife, and the only venue on the island combining slides with a dolphinarium.

What attractions does the park have?

Spread across roughly 55,000 square metres, the park packs in more than a dozen slides of very different character. Thrill-seekers head for Tsunami, Cyclones and Gravity, structures rising over 18 metres that deliver a near-vertical drop. For guests who want speed without the height, there's Rapids and Kamikazes. Rounding out the lineup are Flying Boats, Multisurf, Tornado and Twister Racer, where riders can race each other side by side on mats.

Is there anything for a calmer day or for kids?

Yes. Visitors after a quieter pace can float along the more than 500-metre Lava River or unwind in the open-air Vulcano Spa & Jacuzzi. Younger guests get their own themed areas — Mega Adventure Land, Pirate Island and Pirate Port — plus a dedicated Kids Pool that opened in April 2022.

Can you actually see dolphins at Aqualand?

The park runs a dolphinarium home to ten bottlenose dolphins. A dolphin show takes place every day at 3:30 p.m. and is included in the standard admission price, with no extra fee or separate booking required. The show has earned industry recognition, too: the International Association of Marine Animal Trainers has named it among the best dolphin shows in the world.

What are the opening hours?

Aqualand Costa Adeje is normally open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. During the peak months of July and August, hours are extended to 10 a.m.–6 p.m. Keep in mind that the water attractions themselves — slides and pools — close 30 minutes before the park's official closing time, so plan the last ride accordingly.

Who is this park suited to?

Aqualand Costa Adeje works well for both families with young children and visitors chasing bigger thrills. Keeping the gentler zones separate from the tallest slides means different age groups can spend the day at the same venue without competing for the same rides. Its location in Costa Adeje, one of southern Tenerife's main resort areas, makes it an easy trip from nearby hotels and apartments.
