Overlooking the sands of Porto das Dunas, Beach Park is a family-friendly water park near Fortaleza. It’s one of the largest water parks in Latin America with thrill rides, children’s play areas, dining establishments and a picturesque stretch of natural beach.

Get your adrenalin pumping on the 41-metre-tall Insano water slide or step into one of the Skyboxes to brave the Arrepius slide. Young kids will love the Acqua Circo water playground, which features several spray fountains, gentle slides and a giant dump bucket that deposits 1,800 litres of water at a time.

Other highlights of the Beach Park include the Noah’s Ark play area and Treasure Island, together with a Kids Club where engaging activities are run by qualified “Beach Friends”. Once you’ve built up an appetite, you can feast on seafood at the Beach Grill and grab hotdogs at the Wave Bar or sample traditional Northeast Brazilian cuisine at the Beach Park Praia Restaurant.
