Madeira island has a subtropical climate with mild temperatures throughout the year, but there may be some cloudy or rainy days. However, choose a sunny, warm day to enjoy the water activities. It is open every day from the last week of June to the first week of September. Ribeira da Boaventura 9100-138 Santa Cruz. Here, we enjoy a day of diving and fun in the various pools and slides. It is one of the most popular leisure facilities on the island. Aquaparque de Santa Cruz Aquaparque de S. Located in the municipality of Santa Cruz, on the east coast of Madeira Island.Ĭheck out other activities in Funchal Things To Do and more information about the island in Things To Do Madeira. Allthough we weren't there the entire day the time spent was awesome, maybe mostly 'cos of the company, so choose yours wisely.If you are a fan of water, adrenaline, and fun, Aquaparque Madeira is the perfect place to be. It was day very well spent, don't regret nothing. We didn't come here to SAVE money so what the hell. So the SAM bus would probably be the easiest way to move around, but as usual the bus is the chepeast. Then we took the bus (2,75€/face) to Funchal. ![]() We wondered around quite bit, before my better half made me to ask for advice on some little shop on the village ) Like the biggest pair of tourist Madeira had ever seen. We came back with a little adventure at heart. Taxi was 20€'s one way from Fuchal center. So we went by the minimum, but it was all we needed at that day. We slided in two different slides and bathed in the slow river. There were not much slides for bigger folks, but plenty for kids and prices were very affordable. On wednesday we went to Santa Cruz to spent a day in sun and water. ![]() We came to Funchal on monday 10th in July. I would not recommend this place to my worst enemy never mind someone looking to have a great holiday. The only thing that needs saving is that water park. They just shrugged there shoulders and tried to charge us 10 Euro for a photo of me being attacked by the parrot saying to save the animals. After spending half an hour there which was already far too long we decided to leave where we was greeted by staff asking why we was leaving and we said we wasn’t allowed on any of your rides. Little did we know one slide didn’t work and the other one was a death trap which threw my girlfriend head first into the barrier which has given her concussion. This meant me and my girlfriend could only go on two slides which was already enough. As we arrived in the water park we found out there was a sports day on for a school which meant they shut all the rides unless you was part of the school. ![]() The parrot was put on my shoulder and started attacking my neck and ear and the woman just stood and watched. We were greeted by a woman with a parrot on arrival to get a photo. I do not even know where to begin with this water park. Photos quite pricey as same price as an adult entry Little one loved 'meeting' 'Mickey' and 'Minnie' (or as we said Miguel and Maria Mouse!). The show was all in Portuguese so we would have liked a bit of translation but appreciate its a Portuguese island!Ĭafe was very reasonably priced with lots of family friendly food. Felt like the small cages and baskets the animals were in was concerning. The animal show was ok (not sure about parrots riding bikes!) but the flights of the larger birds of prey were impressive. The bigger slides were good and would keep older kids and adults occupied! More shade is needed so the young kids can get out of the sun for a while but it's too windy for parasols. The lazy river didn't have much of a current and there weren't enough rubber rings so people had to wait a long time for people to finish with them. A major negative was that there were lots of paint chips in this pool, let alone leaves etc, which weren't nice to walk/ swim in. The pools were very cold though and the main small pool is a little tired. There are lots of little slides which were perfect for our 5 year old. It is a very small water park but great for younger children for an afternoon. ![]()
