How many times have you been to a water park on holiday? If you go abroad you will usually find one so you can take advantage of the great weather and have some fun in the water.

And Zante is no exception to this. The simply named Zante Water Village attracts plenty of people each year and you can find it within easy striking distance of the town of Zante itself.

This park does not have as many water rides as some of the other similar parks in Europe, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t worth visiting. If you have kids you’ll find plenty for the whole family to do and enjoy while you are there. Take the ultimate in relaxation and winding down for example – the Lazy River. This is just what it sounds like – it offers the opportunity to lie back in a huge rubber tyre and float around the park watching the world go by.

If that sounds a little tame for your liking you might want to give some of the more entertaining rides a try as well. The Turbo Tubes and the Black Hole are faster and if you don’t mind whizzing round a water tube in the dark the latter of the two will certainly appeal to you!

But it isn’t all about big water rides for the adults. It’s also about smaller and tamer rides and attractions for the kids as well. They’ll love the small Octopus Slides and the various Aqua Spray games that are built around the pool area. There is no doubt that you’ve got a lot to look forward to here at the Zante Water Village.

You might find it a bit much for an entire day, but it depends on how many times you want to go on each ride. It’s certainly an active and entertaining way to spend the day, and if you do have kids you’ll find they sleep very soundly after using up all their energy enjoying the rides.

If you’re staying anywhere near Zante town don’t miss it. It certainly makes a change from the ocean.
