Splash Island opens today

All roads lead to Splash Island as it opens today, March 4, signalling the start of summer season as well as promising hours of fun, thrills and unforgettable experiences.

Beating the summer heat away from the pollution and noise of Metro Manila, the water park has always been on the list of families and groups who seek adventure and cutting-edge entertainment.

Known as the largest water park in the country, Splash Island contains more than 12 water attractions and can accommodate 6,000 guests at any given time.

Of world-class standards, the park boasts of diverse slides, pools and other attractions for guests of all ages.

Among the attractions are the Dos Supremos and King Pilipit slides with plenty of turns and giant twisters. The Big Bam Boo, Twisted Palms and Tausug Trails offer riders on inner tubes with thrilling back-to-back 360 degree turns, full circle curves and down-the-tube dives.

Moreover, for those who opt for edge-of-your-seat thrills, they can trythe Magellan’s Drop – a long, four-level slide where riders race their way to pool level.

There’s a special place for youngsters where at least six attractions around the park are designed in a kid-friendly way. The Curl of the Orient, Camp Carambola and the Twin Coco Knots are actually baby versions of the big slides. In Bannakita, children can have a river adventure while the Boon Docks gives them a delightful wilderness expedition. On the other hand, the tykes will have the time of their lives in the Water Wahoo attraction, an interactive kiddie pool with innovative water play activities.

A great deal of park habitues find relaxation in the Balsa River floating easy on a raft as they drift along the gently flowing river around the park which flows at a pace of three miles per hour.

Another group ride attraction is the Rio Montanosa, a breathtaking mountain high river raft ride the entire family will rave about. To know more about the attractions being offered, call tel.
