⭐ FAQ — Waterpark Rhodes (Faliraki Waterpark)

❓ Is Faliraki Waterpark worth it if I’m not travelling with kids?

Yes — 100%. While Faliraki Waterpark is very popular with families, there are plenty of big slides, raft rides and chill zones that adults enjoy just as much as children. The Kamikaze, Free Fall and Space Bowl are proper adrenaline rides, and the lazy river and wave pool are perfect for couples or groups of friends who just want a fun, sunny day together.

If you’re staying in areas like Faliraki, Kallithea, Rhodes Town or Kolymbia, the waterpark is one of the easiest full-day activities to add into your holiday. It breaks up the usual “beach – pool – beach” routine and gives you a different kind of day without needing to drive far.

❓ What is the best age for kids to enjoy the Waterpark Rhodes?

Most families find the sweet spot is from 4–5 years old up to teenagers. Younger kids love the shallow pools, mini-slides and water playgrounds, while older children and teens flock to the bigger slides and multi-lane racers. Lifeguards are always around, and the kids’ zones are designed so parents can relax nearby and still keep an eye on everything.

If you’re visiting with toddlers, they’ll mostly stay in the baby and shallow sections — which are shaded and very safe — while older siblings can move on to slightly bigger slides. It’s one of the reasons this waterpark works so well for mixed-age families staying in Faliraki, Kolymbia or Rhodes Town.

❓ What should I wear to Faliraki Waterpark? Are there any restrictions?

Standard swimwear is perfect — bikinis, one-pieces, swim shorts and rash vests are all fine. The main thing is to avoid metal or hard plastic parts like big zippers, metal rings or sharp decorations, as some slides don’t allow those for safety and slide-surface reasons.

Water shoes or flip-flops are very useful because floor areas can get hot in July–August. Many people wear flip-flops between slides, then leave them at the bottom of the ride. If you’re planning to film or take photos, bring a waterproof pouch for your phone so you don’t worry about it all day.

❓ Can I bring my own food and drinks into the waterpark?

Officially, large amounts of outside food and full picnics are not allowed, because the park has its own cafés and snack bars. However, bringing water and small snacks (especially for kids) is usually fine and normal — things like fruit, biscuits, or a small sandwich for the little ones.

Inside the park you’ll find fast-food style options, ice creams, drinks and simple meals, so there’s no risk of going hungry. If you’re travelling on a budget, having a good breakfast at your hotel and bringing a refillable water bottle can help keep costs under control.

❓ Is Faliraki Waterpark safe for non-swimmers or nervous swimmers?

Yes — but with some common sense. Many areas are shallow, and there are lifeguards everywhere, especially near bigger slides and pools. Nervous or non-swimmers can stick to the kids’ zones, lazy river (with float rings) and shallow sections of the wave pool, where they can stand comfortably.

If someone in your group really can’t swim, it’s a good idea to bring or rent a life vest or floatation aid and avoid the deepest sections and the most intense slides. Like any waterpark, it’s important to follow the lifeguards’ instructions, respect height/weight signs and not push anyone into rides they don’t feel comfortable with.

❓ What are the height and weight restrictions on the slides?

Most of the big slides require a minimum height of 120–140 cm, depending on the ride. Kids smaller than that will be directed to safer mini-slides and kids’ areas designed specifically for them. This is strictly enforced and honestly a good thing.

Weight restrictions exist on some multi-person raft rides for safety reasons, but they are usually generous and clearly marked at the ride entrance. If in doubt, ask the lifeguard at the top of the slide — they deal with these questions every day and will happily guide you to the rides that best suit your group.

❓ Is Faliraki Waterpark suitable for toddlers and babies?

Yes, but only in the designated kids and baby zones. There are shallow splash pools, mini-slides and soft-floor water playgrounds where toddlers can enjoy the water safely. These areas are usually shaded and calmer, which is ideal when you’re travelling with very young children.

Babies and toddlers must wear swim diapers in all pool areas. Many parents rotate between short play sessions in the water and relaxed time in the shade with snacks and breaks. If you’re staying in a nearby hotel in Faliraki or Kallithea, the short transfer distance makes nap-time logistics easier too.

❓ When is the best time of day to visit Faliraki Waterpark?

The best time is right after opening, around 10:00–11:00, when temperatures are still mild and queues for the big slides are short. This is perfect if you want to do all the adrenaline rides first, then spend the afternoon floating around or relaxing in the shade.

Another good option is a late arrival, around 15:00–16:00, especially in peak season. At that point, some families start to leave, queues get shorter again, and the light becomes softer and more comfortable. If you’re planning your day around buses and taxis, you can always cross-check times using Rhodes Transport Guide and Rhodes Taxi Prices — Full Guide with Prices 2025.

❓ What happens if the weather is cloudy or a bit windy?

Faliraki Waterpark is usually open even on slightly cloudy or breezy days, and those days can actually be more comfortable for families who want to avoid strong midday sun. Only in cases of strong thunderstorms, lightning or very severe winds might some rides temporarily close.

On mixed-weather days you often get shorter queues and cooler air, which many people prefer. Just remember that even when it’s cloudy, the UV in Rhodes can still be strong — so sunscreen is still necessary.

❓ Can you visit Faliraki Waterpark from a cruise ship stop in Rhodes?

Yes — it’s absolutely possible to visit the waterpark on a Rhodes cruise stop, especially if your ship gives you at least 6–7 hours of free time. From Rhodes Port, it’s about 14 km to Faliraki Waterpark, which is roughly 20–25 minutes by taxi.

Many cruise passengers take a taxi directly from the port to the waterpark in the morning and then return to Rhodes Town later for a quick Old Town walk before boarding. To plan this smoothly, you can also check Rhodes Old Town Guide 2026 – What to See, Eat & Explore and Rhodes Taxi Prices — Full Guide with Prices 2025.

❓ How do I get to Faliraki Waterpark from Rhodes Town or other resorts?

From Rhodes Town, the easiest options are:

• Bus: East coast bus in direction Faliraki/Lindos – stops outside or near the waterpark.

• Taxi: Around €17–€22 one way.

From Faliraki, it’s a very short ride or even a walk from some hotels.
From Kolymbia or Kallithea, buses and taxis also run frequently along the main road.

If you’re travelling with children or a group, a pre-booked transfer with G.E.S Travel Agency (with your “Looneytravels” discount) is often the most stress-free option. For a broader overview of transport choices, check Rhodes Transport Guide.

❓ Do I need to book tickets for Faliraki Waterpark in advance?

In July and August, it’s smart to either buy tickets online or through your hotel to avoid queueing at the ticket office and to be sure of entry on very busy days. In May, June, September and October, you can usually just show up and buy tickets at the entrance without issues.

Booking online sometimes gives you a small discount or special family offers. If you’re planning multiple activities on Rhodes, it can be helpful to lock in your waterpark day early and build your Rhodes 7-Day Itinerary around it.

❓ How long should we plan to stay at the waterpark?

Most families and couples stay at least 4–6 hours, but it’s very easy to spend a full day. A common pattern is:

• Morning: big slides and high-energy rides

• Midday: lazy river, shade, lunch, kids zones

• Afternoon: wave pool, favourite slides again, more relaxing

If you’re staying nearby in Faliraki, you can arrive right at opening and leave mid-afternoon, then enjoy a relaxed evening at the beach or in the village. For more ideas on combining activities, you can also read Best Things to Do in Rhodes Greece and Best Day Trips from Rhodes.
