GET WET & WILD IN TROPICAL ISLANDS BERLIN 

INSIDE 

Tropical Islands Berlin isn’t known as the biggest water park in Germany for nothing. It has four different water slides, ranging from the highest waterslide in the country at a colossal 88ft high to a high-speed turbo slide which has a record speed of 43mph!  

If you are looking for a spot to relax, the Tropical Sea at Tropical Islands Berlin is the perfect place to enjoy the sandy beach or take a dip in the water. The Sea is the size of three Olympic swimming pools and always a warm temperature.   

Experience a Balinese atmosphere in the Magical Lagoon. Float through the jungle surrounded by palm trees, Monkey Rock and a waterfall and discover the flow channels, water slides and whirlpools. When the sun sets, indirect lighting creates a calming and romantic atmosphere. 

OUTSIDE

The biggest water park in Germany doesn’t just stay inside. Tropical Islands AMAZONIA is the 35,000m² outdoor area of Tropical Island Berlin. There are numerous water attractions, as well as wellness and sports facilities that can be used all year round. It also includes Germany’s longest white-water river, a 4100ft long wild water channel.

HOW TO STAY DRY IN THE BIGGEST WATER PARK IN GERMANY 

Tropical Islands Berlin is not just defined by its unique water features, with a children’s club, shopping street, and mini golf it is also the optimal place to enjoy a bit of everything. The Shopping Boulevard is a convenient mixture of shopping, leisure and entertainment with the backdrop of a tropical island, whilst the Tropino Club is a real paradise for children where it is assured that they will be entertained for hours. Here they can climb, experiment, race, dive, compete to their heart’s content, guaranteed to be a highlight of their holiday.

View this tropical paradise in Berlin from above by flying through the dome in a tethered or free-floating balloon. The traditional free-floating balloon reaches a height of approximately 50ft 

As soon as the sun goes down Tropical Island Berlin presents an inspiring interplay of musical elements and colourful illuminations. Light effects and an exclusive musical composition combine to create a mystical, spherical spectacle that will leave you spellbound.

Embark on a culinary voyage at the five restaurants offering a variety of culinary specialities, including Indo-Asian, buffets and international street food.  

IF YOU WERE TOLD THAT THERE IS A RAINFOREST IN BERLIN, WOULD YOU BELIEVE IT? 

Perhaps the most unique feature of the whole tropical island resort is the absolute miracle of nature that is the Tropical Islands Rainforest. In an area covering 10,000m², this rainforest is home to around 50,000 plants of 600 different varieties, right here in Europe! Go on an expedition and follow the 0.6mile trail into the heart of the rainforest where you should stumble across the Kupu Kupu Butterfly House. 

EUROPE’S BIGGEST TROPICAL SAUNA & SPA COMPLEX 

Not only did Tropical Islands Berlin show off and create the biggest water park in Germany and then add a magnificent indoor rainforest, they went and topped that by developing the biggest tropical sauna and spa complex in Europe! Also spreading over a 10,000m² area the Tropical Sauna and Spa has seven different areas offering a truly unique spa experience. The complex has been inspired by the sights and sounds of the rainforest and many facilities are above the ground in buildings on stilts creating an insanely realistic wooden Jungle Village. Equipped with numerous unique saunas (stone, herb and tree) and steam baths (healing clay and crystal), not to mention all the massages and beauty treatments on offer too, you will find it hard to not stop by here. This holiday is the perfect opportunity to spoil yourself
