Opened back in 1986, Slide & Splash has become of the most popular waterparks in Europe and is spread across seven acres of land near to Lagoa in the Algarve.

Easy accessible from the main tourist resorts thanks to a shuttle service, Slide & Splash is open throughout the main holiday season from late March through to November.

As with most parks, there is a wide variety of attractions that will be suitable for visitors of all ages – with those who have a need for speed being able to get their fix as much as those who prefer to rest and relax.

Youngsters can head for the foam slides that have been designed for the under tens to ensure that they don’t miss out on the fun.

The Tropical Paradise area is also perfect for small children who aren’t quite ready to take to the more challenging rides like Tornado, the Big Wave and Banzai.

As well as a wave pool, there is a large lagoon area where you can take a refreshing dip whilst the waterpark hosts shows throughout the day with a range of birds and reptiles.

It means there are plenty of things to enjoy during a day at the park, even if you decide to take a break from the water.
