If you are looking for a memorable exit idea, this is the best choice you can make.
In winter, aquatic parks are often forgotten, yet they are an excellent option to disconnect and warm up when it is cold. Few people think about it, preferring more classic activities, but these places offer a certain change of scenery. Between heated swimming pools, slides and relaxation areas, this is the perfect opportunity to enjoy family or friends. In addition, there are generally fewer people at this time of the year, which makes experience even more pleasant. But you still have to find the water park that will really make the difference. In France, there are several, but only a few stand out for their originality and their offers.
This is the case of a park which won, last November, the price of “best world water park “, Awarded by the jurors of Themed Entertainment Association (TEA) in Orlando in Florida. This is the highest distinction in the entertainment industry across the Atlantic. “The jury praised the technical and artistic excellence of this achievement while emphasizing the innovation it introduces into the world leisure industry”can be read in the press release. This is the Aquascope, the latestborn from Futuroscope, located near Poitiers, which is completely unprecedented in France.
After having tested it, we confirm it, the experience is total from start to finish. Concretely, the Aquascope offers visitors to immerse themselves in a covered and thematized space on 7,000 m². The sets are modern and original there throughout the route which has three areas. The first is dedicated to “abyss of light” where young and old can notably enjoy an aquatic cinema, the first in Europe. The second part, “the hub”, is centered on thrills with eight slides whose flagship attraction, the “rocket” slide in which you slide in free fall.
The third area is devoted to young children, “Kraki’s fault”, with an aquatic labyrinth, a musical cave, water jets, mini-toboggans and the presence of a mysterious, but funny exopod. For the more adventurous this season, there is also a last outdoor space this time, with an artificial beach and a dynamic river. Prices level, the ticket is 39 euros for adults (13 and over) and 32 euros for children (5-12 years). In addition, the park is easily accessible by car or train with the Futuroscope TGV station, offering direct access to the two parks. Enough to take full advantage of it!
