Planning a visit to Siam Park Tenerife is almost essential if your family loves waterparks, big rides or simply spending a day cooling off in the Tenerife sunshine.

Located in Costa Adeje, Siam Park combines huge thrill rides with family attractions, children’s water-play areas, a lazy river and the enormous Wave Palace.

But there’s quite a lot worth knowing before you arrive — particularly when it comes to tickets, ride restrictions, Fast Pass, what to take and how to make the most of your day.

In this complete family guide, we’ll cover the best rides at Siam Park, attractions for younger children, ticket options, opening times and our practical tips for avoiding some of the biggest queues.

💡 Holiday Blueprint Tip: If Siam Park is one of the main reasons you’re visiting Tenerife, we’d plan your visit before you travel rather than leaving everything until you arrive. Knowing which rides your children can use and which attractions you want to prioritise can save a surprising amount of time once you’re inside.

Quick Answer: Is Siam Park Tenerife Worth Visiting?

Yes — especially if your family enjoys waterparks and thrill rides.

Siam Park is one of Tenerife’s biggest family attractions, with everything from high-adrenaline slides to a huge wave pool, lazy river and dedicated areas for younger children.

We’d allow a full day rather than trying to squeeze Siam Park into half a day. There’s enough here to keep most families busy from opening until late afternoon.

Siam Park at a Glance

• 📍 Location: Costa Adeje, Tenerife
• 🕙 Opening: Daily, 365 days a year
• 🎢 Best for: Families, older children, teenagers and thrill seekers
• 👶 Younger children: Dedicated family and children’s attractions available
• 🌊 Don’t miss: Wave Palace, Mai Thai River and the headline thrill rides
• ⏱️ Time needed: We’d plan a full day
• 🎟️ Tickets: We’d recommend checking prices and availability before travelling

💡 Holiday Blueprint Pick: If your family only visits one major attraction in Tenerife, Siam Park would be very high on our list — particularly with older children or teenagers.

Best Rides at Siam Park Tenerife

One of the biggest reasons families visit Siam Park Tenerife is the rides — and there’s a surprisingly big difference between them.

Some are serious thrill rides aimed at confident swimmers and older children, while others are much more suitable for families who want to ride together.

If you’ve got thrill-seeking older children or teenagers, these are the attractions we’d put near the top of your list.

Tower of Power

Tower of Power is probably Siam Park’s most famous attraction — and definitely not one for nervous riders.

The near-vertical body slide drops you from a height of 28 metres, reaching speeds of up to 80 km/h, before the finale takes you through an aquarium containing sharks and rays.

Minimum height: 1.49m / Minimum age: 12 years

💡 Holiday Blueprint Tip: Don’t assume a tall child will automatically want to ride Tower of Power. This is a genuinely intimidating attraction, so we’d let children make their own minds up rather than treating it as something they have to conquer.

Singha

For us, Singha would be one of the must-do rides for families with thrill-seeking older children.

It’s a high-speed water coaster using three-person rafts, with uphill sections, rapid direction changes and speeds of up to 18 metres per second.

Minimum height: 1.25m

Because you ride together rather than individually, it can also be a good stepping stone before tackling some of the park’s more intimidating solo attractions.

The Dragon

The Dragon is one of Siam Park’s most distinctive rides.

Up to four people ride together before being launched into a huge vertical funnel, giving you that brief weightless feeling as the raft swings high up the sides.

Minimum height: 1.25m

This would be another of our priorities for families with older children because you can experience the ride together.

Kinnaree

Kinnaree combines a steep opening drop with twists, turns and a huge tornado-style section.

It’s another raft attraction, making it a good choice for families who enjoy the bigger rides but would rather experience them together.

Minimum height: 1.25m

Mekong Rapids

If your family likes traditional raft rides, Mekong Rapids should definitely make the list.

Four-person rafts race through turns, drops and fast sections, and it’s particularly fun when the whole family can ride together.

Minimum height: 1.10m

💡 Holiday Blueprint Pick: With older children, we’d head for Singha, The Dragon and Kinnaree early in the day. Tower of Power gets the headlines, but Siam Park has several excellent thrill rides that families can actually experience together.

Best Siam Park Rides for Families & Younger Children

Siam Park isn’t just about huge drops and high-speed slides.

There are several attractions that families can enjoy together, plus dedicated areas designed for younger children who aren’t tall enough — or simply aren’t ready — for the biggest rides.

Mai Thai River

Mai Thai River is Siam Park’s lazy river and one of the attractions we’d recommend almost every family tries.

Grab an inflatable and float through tropical scenery, waterfalls and slower sections of the park.

There’s also an optional faster route during the journey, so keep an eye out if some members of the family fancy adding a little more excitement.

It’s a great attraction to save for when everyone needs a break from climbing stairs and racing around the bigger slides.

Wave Palace

Wave Palace is one of Siam Park’s most impressive sights.

The huge wave pool can generate waves reaching up to 3 metres high, with a large sandy beach alongside it where families can relax between rides.

You don’t have to head straight into the biggest waves either, making the surrounding beach and shallower areas useful when different members of the family want different levels of excitement.

The Lost City

Families with younger children should make The Lost City one of their priorities.

This enormous water-play area is packed with bridges, towers, waterfalls, nets and smaller slides, giving children their own adventure area away from the park’s major thrill rides.

It’s particularly useful when you’re visiting with children of different ages because one parent can spend time here with younger children while older family members tackle the bigger attractions.

Sawasdee

Sawasdee is another area specifically designed with younger visitors in mind.

It brings smaller versions of some of Siam Park’s water attractions together in a child-friendly setting, giving younger children a taste of the fun without needing to tackle the park’s biggest slides.

Coco Beach

Coco Beach adds another family-focused area, with a shallow wave pool and plenty of space for younger children to enjoy the water.

It’s a useful place to slow the pace down, particularly if you’re spending the entire day at Siam Park.

Jungle Snakes

Jungle Snakes consists of several twisting slides through tropical surroundings.

Depending on the route, you can ride individually or with another person, making these a good progression for children who want something more exciting than the dedicated kids’ areas but aren’t ready for Siam Park’s biggest thrill rides.

💡 Holiday Blueprint Pick: Visiting with children of very different ages doesn’t mean you’ll spend the whole day separated. We’d mix the bigger rides with Mai Thai River, Wave Palace and the family areas, giving everyone a chance to enjoy the park together.

Siam Park Tenerife Height Restrictions

If you’re visiting Siam Park with children, height restrictions are worth checking before you buy tickets.

There’s nothing worse than a child spending weeks talking about a particular ride only to discover they’re too short when you arrive.

Some of Siam Park’s biggest attractions have minimum height requirements of around 1.25m, while the most extreme rides can have higher restrictions.

For example:

Attraction	Minimum Height
Tower of Power	1.49m / Minimum age: 12 years
Singha	1.25m
The Dragon	1.25m
Kinnaree	1.25m
Mekong Rapids	1.10m

Other attractions have their own restrictions and conditions, while areas such as The Lost City, Sawasdee and Coco Beach are aimed much more towards younger visitors.

Measure the Kids Before You Travel

If your child is close to an important height threshold, we’d measure them without shoes before your holiday.

Don’t rely on them being allowed onto a ride because they’re only a centimetre short. Ride restrictions are there for safety and staff can check children before allowing them to ride.

Also remember that height isn’t the only restriction that can apply. Individual attractions may have rules relating to age, weight, swimming ability or how riders use the attraction.

💡 Holiday Blueprint Tip: If your child is around 1.20–1.25m, we’d check the current restrictions for the rides they’re most excited about before visiting. Reaching 1.25m can make a significant difference to the number of Siam Park’s bigger attractions available to them.

Always check Siam Park’s latest attraction information before your visit, as restrictions can change.

Siam Park Tickets: Which Should You Buy?

There are several ways to book Siam Park, and the best ticket depends on whether you simply want park admission or want to include extras such as Fast Pass access, food or a second attraction.

For most families, we’d compare these three options.

Standard Siam Park Entry Ticket — Best for Most Families

If you simply want a full day at Siam Park, the standard entry ticket is where we’d start.

It gives you admission to the park and its attractions, while allowing you to decide separately whether you want to spend extra on food, lockers or other upgrades.

Best for: Most families and anyone wanting the lowest-cost straightforward entry option.

CHECK STANDARD SIAM PARK TICKETS →

Siam Park All-Inclusive Ticket — Best for Convenience

The All-Inclusive ticket is considerably more expensive, but it packages several useful extras together.

It includes park admission alongside unlimited Fast Pass access, food and drink during the day, a towel and locker.

Fast Pass doesn’t apply to every attraction, so don’t assume you’ll be able to skip every queue in the park.

For a family visiting during a busy school-holiday period, however, the additional convenience could be worth comparing against buying everything separately.

Best for: Families prioritising convenience and reducing time spent queuing.

CHECK SIAM PARK ALL-INCLUSIVE TICKETS →

Siam Park + Loro Parque Twin Ticket — Best for Two Big Days Out

If you’re also planning to visit Loro Parque, we’d definitely compare the combined ticket rather than automatically buying the two parks separately.

The Twin Ticket gives you admission to Siam Park and Loro Parque on separate visits.

One important detail is that the current Twin Ticket is linked to you using a wristband when you visit the first park. You’ll need to keep the wristband on and present it alongside your ticket when visiting the second park.

The current official terms give you 15 days from your first park visit to use the second admission.

Best for: Families already planning to visit both Siam Park and Loro Parque.

CHECK SIAM PARK + LORO PARQUE TICKETS →

💡 Holiday Blueprint Pick: For most families, we’d choose the standard Siam Park ticket. If you’re visiting during a particularly busy period and value convenience, compare the All-Inclusive option. If Loro Parque is already on your Tenerife itinerary, the combined ticket is the one we’d investigate first.

Siam Park Fast Pass: Is It Worth It?

A Siam Park Fast Pass can be useful, but whether it’s worth paying extra depends heavily on when you’re visiting and how many of the major rides you want to experience.

The most important thing to understand is that Fast Pass and park admission aren’t necessarily the same thing.

Unless you’re buying a ticket package that specifically includes Fast Pass access, you’ll still need valid admission to Siam Park.

Limited vs Unlimited Fast Pass

Siam Park offers different Fast Pass products, and the way they work isn’t identical.

A Limited Fast Pass provides priority access to selected attractions on a limited basis, while the more expensive Unlimited Fast Pass allows repeated priority access to participating attractions.

Not every attraction is included. In particular, Tower of Power and Mai Thai River are excluded from the Unlimited Fast Pass, so you’ll still need to use the normal queue for those.

Availability can also be limited, so we wouldn’t arrive assuming you’ll definitely be able to buy the Fast Pass option you want.

When We’d Consider Fast Pass

We’d be most tempted by Fast Pass if:

• You’re visiting during UK school holidays
• Siam Park is expected to be particularly busy
• Your children are tall enough for most of the major rides
• Thrill rides are the main reason you’re visiting
• You only have one day at the park
• You’d rather spend more money than spend significant time queuing

It makes less sense if you’re visiting with very young children and expect to spend much of the day around The Lost City, Sawasdee, Coco Beach or the family attractions.

💡 Holiday Blueprint Verdict: We wouldn’t automatically buy Fast Pass for every Siam Park visit. During quieter periods we’d start with normal admission. But during school holidays or peak summer, we’d compare the cost of the All-Inclusive/Fast Pass options before booking — particularly with thrill-seeking older children who want to ride as much as possible.

Best Time to Visit Siam Park & How to Avoid Queues

Siam Park can get extremely busy, particularly during summer, school holidays and other peak travel periods.

There’s no guaranteed quiet day, but a little planning can make a big difference to how much you manage to do.

Arrive Before Opening

Our biggest tip is simple: get there early.

We’d aim to arrive before the gates open rather than turning up late morning when many other visitors are arriving.

Once you’re inside, head towards the rides that matter most to your family rather than stopping immediately at the first attraction you see.

Do Your Priority Rides First

If you’re travelling with older children or teenagers, decide on your top three or four rides before you arrive.

For thrill seekers, we’d prioritise attractions such as:

• Singha
• The Dragon
• Kinnaree
• Tower of Power

Getting some of your must-do attractions completed earlier means you can relax much more during the rest of the day.

Expect School Holidays to Be Busier

If you have flexibility with your travel dates, visiting outside the main UK school holidays can potentially mean a more relaxed experience.

If you’re tied to the school calendar, don’t worry — we’d simply plan the day more carefully and consider whether a Fast Pass or ticket package including Fast Pass access represents good value for your family.

Don’t Forget the End of the Day

Many visitors naturally start thinking about leaving during the later afternoon.

If you’re staying until close to closing time, you may get another opportunity to revisit favourite attractions depending on queue levels.

Just don’t leave everything important until the final hour — ride operations and queues can change throughout the day.

💡 Holiday Blueprint Tip: Before entering Siam Park, agree on your family’s three must-do attractions. Do those first, then treat everything else as a bonus. It’s much better than spending the whole day worrying that you haven’t reached everyone’s favourite ride.

Getting to Siam Park Tenerife

Siam Park is located in Costa Adeje in the south of Tenerife, close to Playa de las Américas and Los Cristianos.

If you’re staying in one of the main southern resorts, getting there is relatively straightforward.

Free Siam Park Bus

Siam Park operates a free shuttle bus serving several stops around Los Cristianos, Playa de las Américas and Costa Adeje.

This can be one of the easiest options if you’re staying nearby and don’t want to worry about driving or parking.

The route and timetable can change, so we’d check Siam Park’s current shuttle information shortly before your visit.

Driving to Siam Park

Having a hire car gives you more flexibility, particularly if you’re staying outside the main southern resorts.

Siam Park has parking available, although parking charges and availability can change, so we’d check the latest information before travelling.

Driving can make particular sense if Siam Park is only one part of a Tenerife holiday where you’re also planning to explore places such as Mount Teide, different beaches or the west of the island.

Taxi

A taxi can be a very convenient option if you’re staying around Costa Adeje, Playa de las Américas or Los Cristianos.

For a family, the convenience of travelling directly between your hotel and the park can sometimes make the extra cost worthwhile.

Staying Near Siam Park

If Siam Park is going to be one of the highlights of your holiday, choosing accommodation nearby can make things considerably easier.

Villa Mandi Golf Resort is one of the hotels we particularly like for families planning a Siam Park visit, while Costa Adeje also has an excellent selection of family resorts.

You can see our full comparison in our Best Tenerife Family Hotels guide.

💡 Holiday Blueprint Tip: If you’re staying around Costa Adeje, Playa de las Américas or Los Cristianos, we wouldn’t hire a car purely for Siam Park. But if you’re planning to explore Tenerife throughout your holiday, having a car becomes much more useful.

What to Take to Siam Park Tenerife

You don’t need to carry half your suitcase into Siam Park, but bringing a few essentials can make the day considerably easier.

Swimwear

Wear comfortable swimwear that you’ll be happy spending most of the day in.

Remember that some attractions may have rules about clothing, accessories or anything that could become loose while riding.

Sunscreen

Tenerife’s sun can be strong, and you’ll potentially spend most of the day outdoors.

We’d apply water-resistant sunscreen before arriving and bring enough to reapply during the day — particularly for children.

Towel

You can bring your own towel, while some ticket packages may include towel use.

If you’re trying to travel light, check exactly what’s included with your ticket before packing one.

Water Shoes

Water shoes can be extremely useful around a waterpark, particularly when surfaces become hot in the Tenerife sunshine.

However, individual attractions can have rules about footwear, so you may need to remove them for certain rides.

Waterproof Phone Pouch

A waterproof phone pouch can be useful if you want to keep your phone with you around the park.

Just remember that loose items may not be permitted on certain attractions.

Change of Clothes

We’d leave a dry change of clothes in your locker, particularly if you’re travelling with children.

Changing into something dry before heading back to the hotel can make the journey considerably more comfortable.

Don’t Carry Everything Around

Lockers are available at Siam Park, so we’d avoid carrying valuables and unnecessary belongings around the attractions all day.

Keep what you actually need with you and store the rest securely.

💡 Holiday Blueprint Tip: Our basic Siam Park kit would be swimwear, water-resistant sunscreen, water shoes, a towel and dry clothes for afterwards. Keep it simple — the less you’re carrying around a waterpark with children, the better.

Food, Lockers & Facilities at Siam Park

Spending a full day at Siam Park means you’ll probably need somewhere to eat, somewhere to store your belongings and somewhere to change before heading back to your hotel.

Fortunately, the park has the main facilities families are likely to need.

Food & Drink

There are several places to buy food and drinks around Siam Park, ranging from quick snacks to more substantial meals.

If you’ve booked an All-Inclusive ticket, check exactly which food and drink outlets and items are included with your ticket before ordering.

For standard ticket holders, we’d budget separately for food and drinks during the day.

Can You Take Your Own Food into Siam Park?

Siam Park’s published rules say that bringing food and drinks into the main park is not permitted.

However, Siam Park also currently offers a service where your own food and drinks can be stored for you for a small fee and eaten in the park’s designated picnic area.

Because the arrangements can change, we’d check Siam Park’s latest guidance before travelling if you’re planning to bring your own food, particularly if someone in your family has specific dietary requirements.

💡 Holiday Blueprint Tip: For the easiest day, we’d either plan to eat inside the park or check the latest picnic arrangements before you visit rather than arriving with a large cool bag.

Lockers

Lockers are available and we’d definitely use one.

They’re useful for storing:

• Dry clothes
• Towels
• Bags
• Valuables
• Anything you don’t want to carry around the park

Some premium ticket packages include locker use, so check what’s included before paying separately.

Changing Rooms & Showers

Changing facilities and showers are available, which is particularly useful if you’re heading somewhere else after Siam Park rather than returning directly to your hotel.

We’d keep a complete set of dry clothes in the locker for the end of the day.

Towels

Towels are available to buy inside Siam Park, although we’d recommend bringing your own if you have room in your bag.

If you choose an All-Inclusive ticket, a towel and locker are included as part of the package.

💡 Holiday Blueprint Tip: We’d put almost everything into a locker when we arrive and only carry the essentials. It’s much easier than having different family members taking turns guarding bags while everyone else goes on the rides.

Our Ideal Siam Park Day with Kids

If we were planning a full family day at Siam Park, we’d try to balance the big rides with plenty of time to actually enjoy the park rather than racing from queue to queue.

Before Opening — Arrive Early

Aim to arrive before opening so you’re ready to enter when the park opens.

Once inside, sort your locker and essentials quickly rather than spending ages getting organised.

Morning — Hit Your Priority Rides

We’d use the first part of the day for the attractions that matter most to your family.

With older children and teenagers, we’d head towards rides such as Singha, The Dragon and Kinnaree before settling into the slower parts of the park.

If Tower of Power is someone’s absolute must-do, we’d also consider tackling it earlier rather than leaving it until later.

With younger children, we’d head towards The Lost City or Sawasdee and let them start enjoying the park immediately.

Late Morning — Enjoy the Park Together

After everyone has ticked off a couple of priorities, slow things down.

This is a good time for attractions such as Mai Thai River and Wave Palace, where more of the family can spend time together.

Lunch — Don’t Leave It Too Late

We’d probably eat slightly earlier or later than the traditional lunchtime rush rather than waiting until everyone is starving at exactly the same time.

After lunch, give everyone a little time before immediately heading back onto the biggest rides.

Afternoon — Revisit Favourites

Use the afternoon for attractions you missed earlier and any rides the kids immediately want to do again.

If you’re using Fast Pass, this is where having priority access to participating attractions could become particularly useful.

Families with younger children can also use this time for Coco Beach, The Lost City or Sawasdee while older children tackle another thrill ride.

Final Hour — One Last Favourite

If everyone still has energy, we’d finish with one favourite attraction rather than trying desperately to squeeze in five more rides.

Then retrieve your belongings, change into dry clothes and head back to the hotel without feeling like you’ve spent the entire day rushing around.

💡 Holiday Blueprint Tip: Don’t try to follow a minute-by-minute Siam Park itinerary. Queue times, weather and what your children actually enjoy will dictate the day. Have three must-do attractions, arrive early and stay flexible with everything else.

Siam Park Tenerife FAQs

How Long Do You Need at Siam Park Tenerife?

We’d recommend allowing a full day at Siam Park.

There are enough thrill rides, family attractions, pools and relaxation areas to easily fill the day, particularly if you’re visiting during a busier period when queues may be longer.

Arriving close to opening time also gives you the best chance of getting several priority attractions done early.

Is Siam Park Suitable for Younger Children?

Yes. Although Siam Park is famous for its bigger water slides, there are also dedicated attractions and play areas for younger children, including The Lost City, Sawasdee and Coco Beach.

Just remember that individual rides have their own height and safety restrictions, so younger children won’t be able to use every attraction.

Is Siam Park Open All Year?

Yes. Siam Park is open 365 days a year, although opening hours vary by season.

At the time of writing, the park operates longer summer opening hours from May to October and shorter winter hours from late October to April.

We’d always check the latest opening times before your visit.

Can You Leave Siam Park and Come Back Later?

No. Siam Park’s current rules state that once you’ve entered the park, you cannot leave and re-enter on the same admission.

Make sure you have everything you need before entering.

Can You Take Your Own Food into Siam Park?

Siam Park’s published rules say that food and drinks cannot be taken into the main park.

However, the park currently offers a service where your own food and drinks can be stored for you and eaten in a designated picnic area.

Because arrangements can change, we’d check Siam Park’s latest guidance before your visit if you’re planning to bring your own food.

Does Siam Park Fast Pass Include Park Entry?

Not when purchased as a separate Fast Pass.

Siam Park’s standalone Fast Pass products are an additional purchase and do not include park admission.

Some packages, such as the All-Inclusive ticket, combine park admission with unlimited Fast Pass access and other extras.

Does Siam Park Open at Night?

Yes, during selected summer dates Siam Park operates Siam Night, when visitors can experience much of the park after dark with music, lighting and entertainment.

Siam Night usually operates on selected summer evenings, with the current programme running Tuesday to Saturday during July and August.

Because dates and operating arrangements can change each summer, we’d check the current Siam Night schedule before planning your visit.

💡 Holiday Blueprint Tip: For a first visit with children, we’d choose a normal full day at Siam Park. Siam Night looks brilliant for families with older children and teenagers, though, and it’s definitely something we’d consider during a summer Tenerife holiday.

Planning the rest of your holiday too? Explore our Tenerife with Kids guide for whale watching, Mount Teide, beaches and other family activities.

Final Verdict: Is Siam Park Tenerife Worth It for Families?

For most families visiting Tenerife, we’d say Siam Park is absolutely worth including in your holiday plans.

It’s particularly good for families with older children and teenagers because the headline water slides are genuinely impressive, but there’s enough here for younger children too, with dedicated play areas, family attractions, the lazy river and Wave Palace.

Our biggest advice would be simple: give Siam Park a full day, arrive early and don’t try to do everything at once.

Choose three or four attractions your family really wants to experience, tackle some of the popular rides early and then enjoy the rest of the park at a more relaxed pace.

Which Siam Park Ticket Would We Choose?

For most families, we’d start with the standard Siam Park entry ticket. It keeps the cost down while still giving you access to the park’s attractions.

During particularly busy periods, families planning to spend most of the day on the major rides may find the All-Inclusive option worth considering for the added convenience and Fast Pass access.

And if you’re already planning to visit Loro Parque during your Tenerife holiday, it’s worth comparing the combined ticket before buying the two attractions separately.

💡 Holiday Blueprint Verdict: Siam Park would be one of our top family days out in Tenerife. Arrive early, plan a few must-do rides and leave enough time to enjoy the park rather than spending the entire day chasing attractions.
