About

Splashdown Quaywest is the United Kingdom’s largest outdoor waterpark, situated on the sun‑drenched Goodrington Sands beach beside the English Riviera. The park boasts 18 thrilling water slides – including adrenaline‑pumping flumes such as the 65‑ft Devil’s Drop and the high‑speed Screamer – alongside a new aquaplay arena, Captain Lewey’s Shipwreck Island, designed for children under 12. With a crystal‑clear 20‑metre swimming pool, sun terraces, a café, a Costa Coffee outlet and gelato shops, there’s something for every family, thrill‑seeker and casual visitor alike. Admission tickets are sold exclusively online, ensuring hassle‑free entry, while the park offers a range of discounted day‑tickets, group deals, and essential companion arrangements for guests with disabilities. From spring to early autumn, the park’s 8‑hour season offers the best weather and daily attendance, making it a go‑to locale for beach‑side fun, family weekends or school day‑trips. Individual visits normally last 3–4 hours, striking a balance between exploring all attractions and enjoying a relaxed beach day
