As Malta begins to boil, finding ways to 'beat the heat' have become a national pastime. One of the best ways to cool off on a hot summer day is to visit Splash & Fun Water Park, the only one of its type in Malta.

Splash & Fun Water Park offers a full day of fun and adventure for the whole family. Discover the excitement of the Family Slides, the Space Bowl, a popular attraction last year, the Lazy River, a 240-m journey around the park and, for the kids, the Children's Splash Land, an interactive, safe play area for young children.

For those who prefer to kick back and relax, the increased deck area, accommodating over 1,500 visitors, offers guests an opportunity to relax and enjoy the fun without actually getting wet.

Last month, Splash & Fun expanded to house the High-Tide Wave Pool, deemed to be the largest wave-pool in Europe. Measuring 65 m long and 25 m wide, with 1.1-m waves being pumped and over 2,000 cubic metres of water, this is the park's most ambitious project to date.

The daily animation programmes and games provided by the professional animation team create a unique, fun atmosphere. Tropical dances, volleyball, salsa lessons and aerobics are just some of the activities presented daily at Splash & Fun.

Splash & Fun Water Park offers a variety of group and family packages, ranging from discounted water park admission to exclusive events, making use of the entire water park, attractions and amenities.

Bar-B-Q nights are held every Friday where the rides can be enjoyed from 5 p.m. plus musical entertainment.

Call 2137-4283 for more information on these offers and events. Splash & Fun Water Park is open from 9 a.m. till late; tickets are sold at Splash & Fun Water Park entrance, hotels and selected outlets in Malta and Gozo. All tickets include unlimited use of all facilities at the park.
