With record-breaking water slides and a giant lazy river, Sandcastle Water Park is located right by the beach, making it an ideal rainy day solution.

The park is home to 18 different rides, including the UK’s longest indoor water rollercoaster, the Master Blaster, which is described as “more than 200m of Adrenalin-filled excitement”.

This ride along with the Sidewinder, the world’s first indoor half-pipe water slide, has been classified by the park as a “white knuckle” experience.

High-speed ride Montazooma has hairpin bends and 360 degree helixes throughout.

And for younger visitors, there are a wide variety of attractions to keep them entertained.

Treetop water chutes and the HMS Thundersplash prove popular with the little ones.

Meanwhile, the Ushi Gushi River Creek is “full of surprises” for riders as they venture along the flowing stream.

And if you’re not a thrill-seeker or want a break while your children splash around, the Sea Breeze Spa offers saunas, steam rooms, heated loungers, and aromatherapy.

Visitors can also hire out private Tiki Cabanas for the day, where they can enjoy beer, wine, lunch, and even a TV while lounging in a hot tub.

Alternatively, you can visit the Waterfalls Cafe and Waters Edge kitchen, which serve lots of dishes for parents and children.

And there’s even an option for dessert with the Cool Waves stand, which serves ice cream and other sweet treats.

Tickets start from just £15.95 and go up to £24.95 depending on age and concessions.

Entrance includes access to a three-hour time slot, with amended hours for Easter weekend.

And if you’re still not sold, Sandcastle has proved popular with past visitors.

The water park has even received thousands of five-star ratings on TripAdvisor.

“Brilliant, such a fun place, three hours went by very quickly, some queues but not long waiting times, plenty of lockers and changing rooms, looking forward to going again,” wrote one recent customer.

“Went in half term so it was quite busy, queues for all the slides but worth the wait. Loads to do for all ages and plenty of lifeguards on duty,” said another visitor.

“Overall we had an excellent experience and definitely recommend the Sandcastle, we will probably go again,” wrote a third person.

“The whole place just seemed really well run. Everywhere was clean, staff were all exceptionally friendly and helpful.”

Visitors recommended showing up early to find a space in the facility’s car park.

And for warm weather fun, the UK’s largest outdoor water park is set to reopen in time for summer.

Families can also visit the UK’s largest garden centre this Easter break, which includes lots of shops and a soft play area.
