Bodrum Candyland Aquapark

Bodrum Candyland Aquapark offers a vibrant water adventure on Turkey’s Aegean coast, located just a short drive from Bodrum’s center. For around the price of the entrance fee, you gain access to a world of splashes, slides, and smiles. As we step into Candyland, it’s clear that this isn’t just any water park — it’s a place designed for fun, discovery, and a little bit of childlike wonder. Whether you’re visiting with family, friends, or on a cruise, this park promises a lively escape with plenty to offer.

What we love about Bodrum Candyland is the sheer variety of more than 100 entertainment zones that cater to all ages. From adrenaline-pumping rides like the King Cobra and Dragon Racer to relaxing pools such as the wave pool, there’s something to keep everyone entertained. The park’s cheerful theme, inspired by the colorful world of Andy and Candy, creates a whimsical backdrop that keeps the mood light and joyful. Another big plus: the park is easy to access, with a quick 10-minute drive from Bodrum center, via public bus or taxi.

One potential consideration is that food and drinks are not included in the entry fee. You’ll want to budget extra for meals or snacks, which are available inside but come at additional cost. Also, the dryland and Candyland areas outside the water zones are extra — so if you’re looking to explore beyond the water attractions, be prepared for that. This tour suits those looking for a full day of water-based fun in a lively, family-friendly environment; it’s especially perfect if you’re keen on trying a wide variety of rides and enjoying some relaxed moments in the pools.

What to Expect at the Park

Once you arrive, you’ll immediately notice the colorful, cartoonish theme that makes Candyland stand out from more utilitarian water parks. The main attractions, such as the Wave Pool and Aqua Tower, offer opportunities for both relaxation and socializing. For thrill-seekers, King Cobra and Dragon Racer promise adrenaline rushes, with twists and drops that will satisfy even seasoned water park fans.

The Aqua Tower is a standout for those who enjoy climbing and sliding, while the wave pool provides a gentle, fun experience for all ages. The King Cobra and Dragon Racer are designed for those craving excitement, with fast-paced slides that send you rushing through colorful tunnels and over waves.

For younger visitors or those wanting a calmer experience, the park’s many entertainment zones include shallow pools and play areas, all designed with safety and fun in mind. We loved the way the park maintains a lively yet relaxed vibe — you can choose to be in the action or kick back with a drink and soak up the surroundings.

The Rides and Attractions

The rides at Bodrum Candyland are assigned with plenty of variety. The Wave Pool is perfect for a lazy float or a splashy splash, while the Aqua Tower offers a series of slides and climbing opportunities for kids and adventurous adults. The King Cobra is a giant slide with a twisting, spiraling descent that’s guaranteed to get your adrenaline going. The Dragon Racer is a multi-lane slide where you can race friends or family.

Other attractions include a lazy river, offering a laid-back float with views of the colorful surroundings, and the Cannonball slide, which promises a quick, exhilarating drop. The park’s themed zones contribute to the whimsical atmosphere, making it feel less like a typical waterpark and more like a fantasy land designed for fun.

While some reviews mention “more than 100 entertainment zones,” it’s clear that the variety of rides and pools is the main focus. The entertainment zones are thoughtfully spread throughout the park to reduce congestion and ensure a smooth flow of visitors. The park is well-maintained, and safety is a priority, with staff actively monitoring the rides.

Food, Drinks, and Extra Costs

As mentioned, the entry fee only covers access to the waterpark — food and beverages are not included. You’ll find snack bars and small restaurants inside, but expect to pay a premium compared to street prices. If you’re planning a full day, it’s wise to bring some snacks, water, and perhaps a picnic if the park permits.

The Candyland and dryland areas outside the water zones are also extra, meaning any additional activities or special zones outside the main water attractions come with their own cost. Planning your budget ahead will ensure you avoid surprises when it’s time to relax or take a break.
