Benidorm’s Aqua Natura water park is inaugurating ‘La Cresta’, the only water attraction in the world that lets you experience the feeling of zero gravity.
This chute is a kind of roller coaster that reaches over 15 metres in height and is completely enclosed. You ride the chute on a float for either one or two people until you reach a platform 20 metres high.
From this water platform the ride continues by ascending an eight-metre ramp, which uses the inertia of the descent, until finally you reach a huge pool at the bottom. The difference in height means that users experience a sensation similar to ‘zero gravity’.
The water park boasts a series of chutes of all kinds totalling 1,000 metres to suit every age group, including fast ones, gentle ones, open ones, ones with floaters and ones with mats. A brand new attraction in this area is the Tornado, a spectacular spiral drop which will get your adrenaline flowing!
The aquatic zone also has four pools, one of which is a wave pool and another with hydrotherapy features. For children there is a special irregularly-shaped pool with total visibility so parents have their children in sight at all times.
