I have younger children in my family / group is there anything for them to do apart from the slides?
Sandcastle Waterpark has been designed to entertain the whole family including limited swimmers. There are a great selection of attractions available for our younger visitors, under confident or novice swimmers to enjoy. We recommend that families with small children visit at the quieter periods of the day during school holidays i.e. first thing in the morning or later on towards the end of the day, or during out of season periods – this will ensure your maximum enjoyment.
Our Changing Village is equipped with electronic lockers which are allocated with an electronic wristband. The wristbands can also be used for Splash Cash purchases at our Catering outlets. We have small (2 people max) medium (3 people max) and large (families) lockers available.
