The GPS coordinates listed for drivers are 27º 46′ 43″ N, 15º 36′ 21″ W.

Closest landmark: Faro de Maspalomas, around 7km away by road.

Accessibility

  • Aqualand Maspalomas is accessible across the main park areas.
  • Paths around the general park zones are easier to navigate than the rides themselves.
  • Not every attraction is accessible in the same way, since individual slides have their own height and physical restrictions.
  • Children’s Paradise and Polynesia Park are the easiest areas for a more relaxed visit, since they do not involve major thrill rides.
  • The Aqualand bus stop is right by the park, so public transport is fairly practical for visitors who do not want to drive.
  • If you are coming by car, on-site parking makes arrival simpler, especially if you are carrying bags, towels, or things for children.
  • For the smoothest visit, it helps to check the wider plan-your-visit details before you go.

Walking to Aqualand Maspalomas only makes sense if you are already staying very close by in the Maspalomas or El Tablero area. From Maspalomas, the walk can take around 40 to 45 minutes, so it is possible, but not the most comfortable option for most visitors heading to a waterpark with towels, swimwear, and day bags. If you want the easiest start, bus or taxi is the better call.
