Port Aventura Theme Park Is A Great Day Out For The Children
There are rides of all sizes. The park is divided into 'countries', and the theme of the country is apparent in each ride. For example in 'Mexico' there is a 'Sacred Serpent' ride. This is one ride that's very good for young children as it's relatively gentle compared to some of the other rides. Each ride has a guide next to it saying how tall you have to be to experience it, so there's no need to worry about your children going on a ride that's too rough.
In the area of the park that is Polynesia, you'll find a ride called Kontiki Wave. It's a pirate ship that swings to and fro and is also good for younger children.
Another good ride that is recommended for the little ones is in the 'Far West' area. It's a mini roller-coaster called Tomahawk.
The Far West also has the Buffalo Rodeo dodgem cars that are especially designed for young children.
What There Is At Port Aventura Besides The Rides
Throughout the park there are fun special effects, like the submarine in the picture here.
You can expect to see theatre shows, singers, and wild west shoot outs. There are also lots of restaurants and snack bars and you'll be spoilt for choice with the number of shops.
In peak season it's best to reserve a table at a sit down restaurant if you want to be guaranteed a space. There are restaurants inside the park in all zones. They are all themed depending on whether they are in the 'China' zone, or the 'Far West' zone and so on.
Next door to Port Aventura is the PortAventura Aquatic park. You can buy a ticket for this park and Port Aventura or you can just choose to visit one of the parks.
