Gran Canaria theme parks and family attractions


Hey there, fellow sun-seekers and thrill-lovers! I've been hopping around the enchanting Gran Canaria, and you wouldn't believe the fun-packed theme parks waiting for you here! Each one is a little slice of paradise with its unique vibe. 

Let's dive into a few of my favorites:

Poema del Mar Aquarium

Nestled in the heart of Las Palmas, Poema del Mar is a watery wonderland bursting with the mysteries of the deep blue. As you meander through the luminous tunnels surrounded by vibrant marine life, you'll feel like you're part of their world! Don't miss the 'Deep Sea' exhibit – it's like gazing into the abyss, and the abyss gazes right back with the most exotic creatures you've ever laid eyes on. It's an oceanic odyssey that will dazzle both kiddos and grownups!

Aqualand

Are you ready to splash into fun? Aqualand is your go-to spot with an array of slides that'll make you scream with joy – from the adrenaline-pumping Boomerang to the laid-back Congo River. Located in the southern paradise of Maspalomas, it's a place where the sun always smiles, and the water sparkles, invitingly. Perfect for thrill-seekers and those needing a lazy day floating around.

Palmitos Park

Tucked away in a lush valley near Maspalomas, this botanical garden and aviary is a peaceful retreat from the beach's buzz. The highlight? The dolphin show is pure joy, and the exotic birds are so colorful they'll make your camera blush! It's a day of learning, laughing, and falling in love with nature.

Holiday World

Imagine a carnival that decided to settle in the Canaries – that's Holiday World in Maspalomas for ya! With an impressive Ferris wheel, thrilling rides, and an arcade, your inner child will be doing cartwheels. Don't forget to challenge yourself with a round of bowling or let loose on the dance floor at the disco!

Sioux City

Yeehaw, partners! Strut into Sioux City in San Agustin, and step into the Wild West. This park's chock-full of cowboy antics, lasso skills, and cancan dancers. Sip on a sarsaparilla and watch a bank heist get foiled by the local sheriff. It's a rootin'-tootin' good time for the whole family!

Mundo Aborigen

Venture back in time at Mundo Aborigen in Fataga. This park gives you the skinny on the ancient Canarian natives with life-sized figures and exhibits. It's an open-air museum where history mingles with breathtaking views. Truly an enlightening walk you won't want to miss.

Cocodrilo Park

Okay, so it's a bit off the beaten path in Agüimes, but Cocodrilo Park is where the wild things are – crocs, exotic birds, and monkeys, oh my! Get up close and personal with these creatures and learn a thing or two about conservation efforts.

Cactualdea Park

Love cacti? Then St. Nicolas de Tolentino's Cactualdea Park is your dream come true. This desert garden is a succulent spectacle, where the gigantic cacti seem to touch the sky. Add in the lava fields and the Canarian villages' view, and it's like a scene from an old Spaghetti Western – pure magic!

Pueblo Canario

Last but not least, pop over to Pueblo Canario in Las Palmas for a cultural kick. This charming replication of a traditional Canarian village is where you'll find folk dancing, local crafts, and that warm, communal spirit we all cherish.

Angry Birds Activity Park: 

For fans of the popular mobile game Angry Birds, the Angry Birds Activity Park in Puerto Rico offers a fun and interactive experience. Visitors can enjoy various Angry Birds-themed games and attractions here, such as slides, climbing walls and interactive play zones.

Each park in Gran Canaria is a world of its own, waiting to welcome you with open arms. Cheers to the sunny adventures that await!  This list is just a selection of the many theme parks and family attractions in Gran Canaria.
