Aqua Natura Benidorm is a water park on the inland edge of Benidorm, at Partida Foia del Verdader 1, next to the Terra Natura zoo and about 3.3 km from the town centre. You get there by car on the Finestrat road, with customer car parks beside the park, or on local bus line 015, which stops about 470 m away. Benidorm’s tourist office describes a 40,000 m² park themed on the Greek islands, with slides such as La Cresta and Kamikaze, a wave pool and a sea lion experience. It suits families with children of mixed ages. Skip it if you are visiting outside the summer, or if you would rather not see sea lions in shows.

Access and parking
By car: the park is on the Carretera de Finestrat, inland from Benidorm, about 3.3 km in a straight line from the town centre and 4.2 km from Levante Beach. On OpenStreetMap it lies just south-east of the Terra Natura zoo; the two parks are about 300 m apart, centre to centre.
Parking: OpenStreetMap maps customer car parks between the two parks, about 150–300 m west of the water park, including rows marked for disabled drivers, plus a gravel car park about 250 m to the east. It does not say whether parking is free, and we could not confirm it from an official source.
By bus: the nearest stops are the two “Terra Natura” stops (185 and 189) on line 015 of the Marina Baixa network, run by Llorente Bus between Benidorm (Hotel Bali), the shopping centres and Finestrat (OpenStreetMap). They are about 470–600 m from the water park. We could not confirm the timetable.
What to expect
Benidorm’s tourist office lists these attractions:
- La Cresta: a mix of slide and water roller coaster, which the tourist office calls unique in Europe.
- Kamikaze: a vertical drop slide.
- Black Hole and Aqua Snake: enclosed slides with twists and speed.
- Río Aventura: a ride down a channel on a ring.
- Wave pool: with geysers and waterfalls.
- Children’s areas: such as Adventure Island, with slides, water castles and interactive games.
There is also a swim with sea lions, described as an educational encounter, a “mermaid and merman school” for children, and entertainment such as foam parties, aqua gym and children’s workshops. The regional tourist board adds a themed beach-style pool, areas with islands and waterfalls, a solarium with sun loungers and shade, sea lion demonstrations and a VIP area. It says the layout lets parents relax while keeping an eye on children in the water.
On OpenStreetMap you can spot the Aqua Snake slide, a building shaped as a lighthouse (the “Faro de Aqua Natura”) and a roofed sea lion area on the south-west side.
Prices and opening
These are the 2026 prices given by Benidorm tourism (checked November 2026). They are “from” prices and may vary with the date and where you buy:
- Adult (13–59 years): from 36 euros.
- Child (4–12 years): from 30 euros.
- Senior (60 and over): from 30 euros.
- Under 3: free.
Combined tickets with Terra Natura and family packs are also sold, through the park’s website, tickets.terranatura.com. We could not open that site, so the prices are not confirmed there.
Opening: Benidorm tourism’s page gives “every day from early April to early November”, with hours varying by season. That is the same wording as on its Terra Natura page, and for an outdoor water park the swimming season may be shorter; we could not confirm the water park’s own dates or hours. Check them before you go.
Practical details
The tourist office lists a solarium, restaurants and beach bars, rental of sun loungers, rings and lockers, picnic areas and changing rooms. The regional tourist board also mentions a shop with summer essentials and equipment hire. OpenStreetMap shows toilets and a fast-food building inside the grounds.
Accessibility and safety
Water parks have height and age limits on many slides; we could not confirm the limits for each ride at Aqua Natura, so check the signs at each slide. Supervise children at all times, including in the wave pool. OpenStreetMap shows disabled parking rows in the car parks, but we could not confirm step-free access to the pools or adapted changing rooms. Bring sun protection: much of the park is in full sun.
Best time to visit
Visit in the summer months, when a water park makes most sense. Arrive at opening time to get a sun lounger in the shade and ride the big slides before the queues build. If you plan to see the zoo next door too, combined tickets let you split the day or come back on a second day.
