Ultimate family fun this summer at Terra Natura Waterpark: Water slides, big bucket, lazy river and more
Visit the Waterpark and Zoo at Terra Natura Murcia this summer for a wet and wild time with all the family
One of the main attractions for families and thrill seekers in the Region of Murcia is the waterpark at Terra Natura, an institution whose opening each summer season truly signals the start of the hot season for many.
The Terra Natura aquatic theme park Aqua Natura, located in central Murcia and just 25 minutes from the airport, is recognised as the top water theme park in Murcia, with loads of rides and activities that mean you can spend an entire fun-filled day there and still be left wanting to come back.
What to do at Terra Natura Waterpark
There are flumes and water slides, including the famous ‘Black Hole’, ‘Speed Hole’ and ‘Kamikaze’, and the Big Bucket pool for everyone to splash around in. To unwind, take a float down the lazy river.
At lunchtime or for a snack, you can pop into any of Terra Natura’s three restaurants – the Restaurante Carnivore, the Lunatic Express Pub & Lounge and El chiringuito de Humedal – where you will find something for everyone to make the most of a full day out at the park this summer.
When does Terra Natura Waterpark open in 2024?
This year, the Terra Natura Waterpark opens on Saturday May 25, 2024 and is open all summer long.
But what many people don’t know is that Terra Natura is actually open all year round, or the zoo part is, at least. You can see the animals at the Murcia zoo at any time of year, and there are always themed events and activities for children and adults taking place throughout the year.
In summer, you can buy a combined ticket to visit the Waterpark and Zoo at Terra Natura for a complete day out of fun.
To see prices and buy tickets in advance for the Waterpark and Zoo, go to the Terra Natura website. Alternatively, you can purchase tickets at the ticket office on the day of your visit, but it is advisable to book ahead in the busy summer months.

Terra Natura Murcia, wildlife and adventure water park in the outskirts of the city of Murcia
Terra Natura Murcia is one of the most important and spectacular animal and nature parks in western Spain, and is one of a new generation of wildlife parks in which visitors can discover the concept of what's called "Zooinmersión."
The aim of this is recreate a habitat which gives an experience of being at one with the wildlife viewed in the park, so to this end more than 500 examples of 50 species of vegetation have been interplanted among the animal habitats, spread across an area occupying more than 165,000 square metres.
The planting has matured to create a comfortable and interesting environment which enhances the interaction between visitors and animals.
The planting not only softens the landscape, but also enables visitors to be closer to the animals and have direct human contact rather than the traditional forms of wildlife park where the animals are at a distance behind physical barriers.
The park contains over 500 animals belonging to 50 different species (some of which are in grave danger of extinction), alongside giraffes, lions, hippopotamus, lemurs, brown bears, Iberian lynx, Oryx, Iberian wolves and a White African Rhinoceros.
Throughout the year, Terra Natura Murcia offers different educational talks during visits to their facilities: giraffes, brown bears and otters.
One of the most popular areas is the falconry zone, where the displays enable visitors to discover the beauty of a great variety of birds such as the majestic flight of the peregrine falcon, which reaches diving speeds of over 300 km an hour, the eagle owl, various types of hawk, the griffon vulture and the buzzard eagle. One of the main aims of the park is to encourage contact and engage in interaction between animals and humans, and the falconry is a popular means of achieving this goal.
Among the mammals are Iberian and European Lynx, Mouflon and Coatis.
