The entrance alley of Jungle Aqua Park

Indicative prices are those shown by resellers in October 2026; they vary with date, currency, children's ages and transfer. Confirm them on screen.

Choosing in three questions

  1. Where do you stay? In the north (centre, Sheraton Road): the Jungle Aqua Park, as a trip arranged by your hotel or an agency. In the south (Makadi Bay, Sahl Hasheesh): Makadi Water World is closer. The transfer to Makadi is paid extra (taxi or hotel service), especially from Soma Bay, El Gouna or Safaga.
  2. How old are the children? Each slide has a minimum height shown at the entrance; for the youngest, look for the calm pools. Very cheap listings aimed at little ones have lower ratings (around 2.8 to 3.8 out of 5): read the reviews.
  3. How long? Makadi Water World is advertised for about 7 hours, with a midday break when slides close according to an older listing (to be checked); the Jungle Aqua Park for half a day to a full day.

Makadi Water World: the fullest park

The biggest park of Makadi Bay advertises more than 35 slides and 14 outdoor pools according to resellers (some listings count more; the figure varies). Entry includes soft drinks and snacks according to the listing, with no transfer or lunch: plan your own journey. See also Makadi Bay for the hotels of the bay.

Jungle Aqua Park: the easiest outing

The Jungle Aqua Park belongs to the Pickalbatros chain. We no longer find an offer with transfer through our partner (checked on 20 October 2026): ask your hotel or a local agency for a trip with transport, and compare the price before paying.

Titanic and Albatros: guests first

The Titanic Aqua Park and the Albatros Aqua Park are visited first with a room in the hotel. A day ticket is not always sold; beware of listings with no price or clear address (one placed the Albatros in Sharm el-Sheikh): check before paying. If you choose your hotel for its park, see where to stay in Hurghada and all-inclusive in Hurghada.

Good to know before going

  • Safety: respect minimum heights, rules and queues; children must not be left alone in the water.
  • Sun: shade is scarce; sunscreen, UV top, water shoes.
  • Money: keep some cash for extras; towels, lockers and photos may be charged.
  • Alternatives: for a windy or very hot day, what to do in Hurghada when it rains and Hurghada with family; for calmer water, the Grand Aquarium.

FAQ

Can you go to a water park without staying there? Yes, for Makadi Water World and the Jungle Aqua Park, by ticket or trip; not always for the hotel parks.

Which park for young children? Check the shallow pools and minimum heights in the listing; no park replaces parental supervision.

Are the parks open in winter? Unheated pools are cool from November to February; the Albatros advertises a heated pool. Check that slides are open.

Do you need to book ahead? Outside school holidays, same day is often possible; free cancellation depends on the offer.
