Water park attractions in Scarborough
"Alpamare UK" in Scarborough, England, is one of the most modern and popular water park attractions in the UK, located in the picturesque coastal town in North Yorkshire. This leisure park, designed in the style of an alpine water experience, was opened after years of planning and construction and represents a significant investment in the region's tourism infrastructure. With its focus on adventure, fun, and relaxation, Alpamare offers a unique blend of adrenaline-pumping water slides, heated pools, and a wellness area that attracts visitors year-round, regardless of typical British weather.
Wellness area in alpine style
The water park covers a generous area and combines indoor and outdoor areas connected by a variety of attractions. The main attractions include four state-of-the-art water slides, each named after ski tracks and offering different difficulty levels - from family-friendly "blue runs" to challenging "black runs". One of the longest slides, the "Olympic Run", is over 100 meters long and allows for a thrilling ride in two-seater tubes, while the "Snow Storm" with its four-person rafts and a dramatic funnel provides especially exciting moments. These slides are designed to combine thrills and fun, making Alpamare a highlight for thrill-seekers.
Heated pools with sea view
Indoors, a huge wave pool dominates, regularly generating high waves and creating a lively atmosphere reminiscent of a day at the beach. For younger visitors, there is the "Splash and Play" zone, a safe area with smaller slides, water fountains, and interactive games specially designed for children. Outdoors, two heated infinity pools overlooking the North Sea impress, offering a relaxing alternative to the action-packed attractions. These pools are equipped with whirlpool bubbles and surrounded by sun loungers, creating an alpine-like wellness oasis on sunny days.
Water slides for the whole family
Another central element of Alpamare is the alpine-style wellness area, providing a peaceful retreat amidst the lively atmosphere of the water park. Here, visitors can relax in warm salt baths, use saunas, or indulge in massages. This area is designed especially for adults seeking tranquility after a busy day, setting Alpamare apart from traditional water parks by combining both adventure and relaxation.

The park's dining facilities are also an important part of the experience. The restaurant offers a selection of fresh, healthy foods like pasta, pizza, and salads reflecting the alpine character of the park, as well as a wide range of beverages, from non-alcoholic options to Bavarian-inspired beers. Meals are often served at tables along the pools, allowing visitors to enjoy their meals with a view of the sea. The facilities are modern and clean, with mixed changing rooms and individual cabins enhancing visitor comfort.
The surroundings of Alpamare UK benefit from Scarborough's coastal location, a town with a long tradition as a seaside resort.

The landscape around the water park is characterized by gentle hills and sweeping views of the North Sea, adding an interesting maritime touch to the alpine theme.
