Meymadion is Israel's largest water park, located in the heart of Ganei Yehoshua (Yarkon Park) in Tel Aviv. Since its opening in 1982, the park has covered an area of approximately 10 hectares, offering a wide variety of water attractions for all ages. Highlights include 21 different water slides, ranging from high-speed vertical drops to slalom courses and tube rides, as well as a massive wave pool. For younger children, there are specialized shallow pools with interactive water play structures and safety-rated mini-slides. The park is set within a green landscape featuring extensive lawns, picnic areas, and shade trees, making it a popular destination for family outings. Beyond the aquatic features, Meymadion also gives sports facilities such as basketball and beach volleyball courts, along with a selection of food stalls and cafes. Operating during the summer season from May to September, the park serves as a central hub for cooling off in the Tel Aviv metropolitan area.

Visiting

The water park features a huge array of outdoor swimming pools, thrilling water slides, and expansive sunbathing lawns. Most activities are open-air and involve direct water interaction, making it an entirely active, outdoor environment.

🕒

Typical hours

Operations are highly seasonal, typically opening only during the warm summer months and on significant national holidays. During the operational season, the park normally opens mid-morning and closes around late afternoon.

Photography

Capturing moments of splashing fun is great, but waterproof cameras or protective pouches are essential for water safety. Remember to respect the privacy of other bathers when taking pictures around the busy pools and slide queues.

⏱️

Time needed

Visitors generally dedicate an entire day to fully enjoy the various slides, wave pools, and relaxation areas. A minimum stay of four to five hours is highly recommended to justify the entry fee and experience the major rides.

Since the park is situated within Yarkon Park, you can easily combine a morning of water slides with an afternoon renting a bike along the river. The surrounding green spaces are excellent for winding down after a highly energetic aquatic day.
