This indoor aquatic centre is one of the largest of its type in Europe, offering not just all-year-round swimming but slides, water toboggans, indoor beaches, beauty and fitness centres, tropical surroundings and great eating too.

The warmth of the water is provided by geothermic heating ensuring great a temperature all year round. So it’s a great place to splash out and enjoy yourselves whatever the weather! The site occupies a hectare, and the centrepiece is the main lagoon or espace lagon. Here around the warm blue waters there are beaches, palm trees, a tropical glasshouse, a toboggan slide and even real waves. For the more serious swimmers there’s also a 25-metre sports pool, plus games and events for kids and teenagers.

Fitness and Health Centre

The espace forme – is a great place to pamper and take care of your body. Here there are not just Turkish and Roman baths, sauna, individual jacuzzis and a solarium, but also baths where you can be massaged by jets of water or swim against the current in turquoise waters at a balmy 31C.

If you’re feeling more energetic there’s also a fully-equipped fitness area.

Beauty Care and Spa Services

A third key element is the beauty area or espace beauté. Here you can find a variety of beauty care and spa services, from wax and skin treatments to specialist face, feet and hand care. Weight-losing and fitness programmes are also available.

The water park also offers plenty of choice when it comes to eating, with a terrace that overlooks all the pools.
