Siam Park Tenerife has won The 2018 TripAdvisor Travellers’ Choice Award for the best water park in the world for the fifth consecutive year. Its Thai architecture, rivers, slides and other water attractions make it again the favorite of users of all countries.


The 2018 TripAdvisor Travellers’ Choice Awards for the world’s best water parks have been revealed. Opened by the Princess of Thailand in 2008, Siam Park Tenerife really is royalty among water parks – it was also No.1 last year in the TripAdvisor awards. It boasts over 30 breathtaking rides and holds several world records, including the creation of the world’s largest man-made wave.

TripAdvisor has announced today the winners of their Travelers’ Choice Amusement Parks and Aquatics awards. The winners of the recognitions have been determined using an algorithm that takes into account the quantity and quality of the opinions of the users from all over the world during a period of twelve months.

In Spain, a total of ten theme parks have been awarded by Travelers’ Choice of TripAdvisor, thanks to the comments of users from around the world. In addition to Siam Park, two other Spanish parks enter the lists of the best amusement parks in the world and Europe: the first is PortAventura, which has achieved 6th place in the European list and 18th in the world; On the other hand, Tibidabo’s Barcelona park is ranked 10th in Europe.

Achieving an achievement that had never before been achieved in TripAdvisor Travelers’ Choice awards, Siam Park stands for the fifth consecutive year as the best water park in the world. With this recognition, the Canary Islands once again position themselves as one of the most important leisure and entertainment destinations for travelers from all countries.

Other autonomous communities that have been awarded are Catalonia and the Valencian Community, with three parks each among the winners. The first one does it with PortAventura, Tibidabo and PortAventura Caribe Aquatic Park; and the second with Aqualandia, Aquarama and AquaPark Ciudad Quesada. Baleares follows them, with two parks (Splash and Katmandu Park) among the best of 2018. In addition to the Canary Islands with Siam Park, Malaga stands out with an award for Sould Park.

“Siam Park has achieved what no other theme park in the world has achieved: to position itself as the best water park for the fifth consecutive year in TripAdvisor Travelers’ Choice awards, an award that is a great pride for Spain,” said Blanca Zayas, responsible of communication of TripAdvisor Spain.

Blanca Zayas added that positioning itself as number one for so many years in a row “is a seal of quality recognized by users around the world and that will undoubtedly open more doors to tourism both nationally and internationally.”
