Splash and Fun Water Park (Malta)

Weather…

Splash and Fun Water Park is located in Bahar ic-Caghaq on Malta's northern coast and stands as one of the largest leisure parks in the country. The facility has a wide range of water attractions for various age groups, including several large water slides such as the Sidewinder and various tube slides. A central feature of the park is the large wave pool, which regularly generates artificial waves, and a Lazy River that allows visitors to float through the park on tubes. For younger children, there are dedicated shallow pools equipped with kid-friendly slides and water games. The park is typically open during the summer months from May to October and provides lounging areas and catering services. Its direct location on the Mediterranean Sea ensures a steady sea breeze and a pleasant atmosphere for families. Since its opening in the 1990s, the park has been steadily expanded and modernized to meet international safety standards and visitor expectations.
