- The “Wide Carpet” slide has a gentler descent. This attraction is suitable for lovers of quiet rides, where you can enjoy the view of the surroundings and wave to your friends as you exit. Here you can also take time to take a beautiful photo, because the slide is not fast.
Rest zone
In addition to the wonderful slides and attractions in the Octopussy water park, there is an excellent sauna where you can relax and warm up even on the sunniest and warmest day. The cleanliness and comfort of this sauna is very inviting.

The children's area is equipped with a children's pool with a shallow depth and children's slides, which will be fun for even the most modest child to ride. Professional animators work here to entertain children during water and land games. In the center of the children's pool is the symbol of the water park - a slide in the shape of an octopus.

The first time you visit it, it will take your breath away. Everything is done with maximum comfort and very modern.
Ticket prices 2020
There are many different tariffs in the H2O water park, so it’s better to look at the table with prices for 2022 in our article: https://obzor-akvaparkov.ru/akvaparki-v-rostove-na-donu/akvapark-h2o-v-rostove-na- donu-polnyj-obzor-rezhim-raboty-i-ceny-na-2018/
Slides and attractions
- Slide "Free Fall". It is available in many water parks. A man sits down with his feet down and slides down the water at high speed. The fall speed reaches 32 km/h. The height of this slide is 18 meters. Only the most courageous will dare to visit this attraction.
- The Magic Hole slide is popular because it is 156 meters long. Steep, winding turns allow you to enjoy a smooth but fast descent straight into the pool. Some of the meanders run along the street.
- The “Flying Boats” slide will appeal to rafting enthusiasts. Sliding down, then up, then down again and then very unexpectedly into the pool.
- Slide "Tsunami". Free fall effect.
- The Space Hole slide is especially popular. It is a very fast, rapid descent ending in a huge funnel.
Rest zone
Here, in the H2O water park, there is a large pool with imitation ocean waves. Both adults and children love this pool. But you can only be in it under the supervision of adults. There is also a 5-lane sports pool. A professional trainer will help teach swimming to anyone. Water aerobics classes are often held for everyone. Of course, the majority of visitors are women. This area also offers group strength training on land and in water.
There is a spa area on the territory of the water park, where it is so pleasant to relax after a hard day of work. It houses an attraction called "Rapid River". It carries the visitor away like a mountain river around the perimeter of the entire water park. On the sides of the center there are 4 spa pools. They are equipped with special hydromassage installations, air massage equipment and geysers. A large number of waterfalls and water cannons are also pleasantly pleasing to the eye and body.
Near the pools there are sun loungers where you can lie down and relax. Outside there is a summer swimming pool with sun loungers and umbrellas to protect from the sun. You can also relax a little in the bathhouse complex, the apartments of which are made of Siberian pine. They are called “Scandinavia” and “Lapland”. You can also stay here for the night.

A very interesting area of the H2O water park is the spa. Here you can enjoy a delicious cocktail, undergo beauty treatments, and visit any spa program of your choice from the complex’s professionals.
Children's zone
The water park has everything for little guests. A real pirate town will delight older children. Lots of children's slides, water cannons and special barrels of water.
Professional animators work here who can entertain even the youngest visitors. Of course, their parents can participate in the games and watch their children.
Water parks in Sochi
Our children are fans of water parks, so we visited them all in Sochi, and there are only a few of them here, only 5.
In general, normal impressions, but without delight. Still, a water park should evoke stronger emotions.
Lighthouse
This water park is located in the center of Sochi, st. Primorskaya, 3/7, this is the embankment, Mayak beach. Website https://akwapark-mayak.ru/
There is plenty of freedom for kids here: a chic water town, a land “ship”.
There are very few slides for adults and older children, about 5 of them. Of the adults, the one I liked the most was the “Twister” made from two intertwining pipes. "Kamikaze" is weak compared to other water parks (not in Sochi). Two swimming pools.
Entrance is 400-800 rubles, children under 3 years old have free admission.
Aqualoo
Located in the village of Loo, Lazarevsky district, in the hotel of the same name. Address st. Dekabristov, 78b, website
The most unpleasant experience from this water park. It has only one plus: it is the only indoor water park in Sochi, i.e. working out of season.
Further, there are continuous disadvantages: food is included in the ticket price - don’t take it, terrible fast food and diluted drinks. In general, take only bottled drinks.
The organization is at zero: ticket machines do not accept cards and do not give change. Nobody changes money.
Then it’s dirty. Everywhere, in the toilets, in the locker rooms, in the pool. The staff is unable to solve a single problem and is rude. Queues for the slides (well, really, it’s the height of the season, that’s understandable).
The slides are, in principle, normal, the children's complex is especially good, but some were closed for some unknown reason. There is a sauna and swimming pool in the closed area.
Price 1200 rub. including the so-called “nutrition”. Considering that Lazarevsky itself has two good water parks, it’s surprising that people go there at all, and a lot of people.
Starfish
Water park in Lazarevskoye, website address Lazarev, 108.
Children under 5 years old are free, which is nice, usually up to 3 years old. A child ticket for the whole day costs 650 rubles, an adult 850 rubles.
Of the Sochi water parks, we liked this one the most, contrary to expectations. Small, but thoughtfully planned, there are enough slides, not extreme, but quite interesting.
As always, the target audience is children 5-8 years old - children’s pools/slides are no longer interesting, and adults are not allowed in yet.
I didn’t like the food either, but this is a common problem with water parks in Russia - it’s expensive and tasteless, and the reason is excess demand, there is no alternative. The staff is polite. In the evenings there are foam shows.
Nautilus
Also in Lazarevskoye, on Pobedy Street, 2/1.
The size is medium and generally standard, I remember only one gorgeous slide “Tsunami”, it’s pure adrenaline.
Again, most slides are either from 10 or even 14 years old, or for children up to 5-6 years old.
Don’t take a ticket for the whole day, 4-4.5 hours is more than enough, take a ticket for 4 hours (550/700 rubles for children/adults), if you exceed it a little, pay extra per minute. In our opinion, there is simply nothing to do there all day.
A powerful disadvantage: there are no storage rooms, and, of course, there is a queue to get to the cloakroom.
By the way, the food here turned out to be quite decent, both in the pizzeria and various snacks such as boiled corn.
Amphibius
This is the only water park in Adler, or rather, in Resort Town. Address st. Lenina, 219/2d, next to the Vesna hotel. Website https://www.vesna-sochi.ru/razvlecheniya/akvapark/…
A purely children's water park, very small, nothing interesting for adults, but our kids were happy (as, indeed, in any water park). Quite standard slides, suitable for children up to 10-12 years old. Prices 400-800 rub.
How to get to the water park
The largest indoor water park in Sochi is located in the village of Loo, on Dekabristov, 78b. You can travel 22 km from the central bus station of Sochi to Loo in 1 hour by direct bus No. 76 (the bus station is located next to the water complex). In just 45 minutes. From the Sochi railway station you can get to the Mountain Air station in Loo, from where it’s a few minutes’ walk to the water park.
By car, the trip from Sochi to the park takes 40 minutes. (along Batumi highway). There is free parking near the water feature, but it is often crowded during the season.
Waterpark "Oasis"
This water park is located in Novocherkassk (Rostov region). It opened in 2002. This is the first water park in the region. Capacity is about 500 people.
Ticket prices 2020
You can view the latest 2022 prices for tickets to the Oasis water park in our article: https://obzor-akvaparkov.ru/akvaparki-v-rostove-na-donu/akvapark-oazis-rostov-na-donu-rezhim-raboty -i-ceny-2018/
Slides and attractions
Here, in the Oasis water park, there are only three adult slides.
- The “Free Fall” slide, the height of which is the size of a three-story house. Not every visitor will risk riding such an attraction. A person on a slide accelerates to a speed of 20 m/minute.
- The Kamikaze slide features steep turns on which the visitor slides down at great speed with a full feeling of flight. The length of this slide is 50 meters. Initially, an open pipe appears, which then turns into a closed one and then waits to land in the pool.
- Slide "Multislide". Suitable for those who like a comfortable and quiet descent.
Rest zone
Several swimming pools with a total area of 1181 sq. m. Special water purification program. There are many sun loungers with umbrellas on which you can lie down and relax between skiing and swimming. Discos and parties are always held here on weekend evenings.
A few years ago, Salsa Open Air began to be held here, in which everyone can take part. When cold weather sets in, the water park turns into an 800-meter skating rink.
Children's zone
There is a shallow children's pool on the territory of the Oasis water park. Both the youngest visitors and older children will enjoy having fun here. There are also children's slides: “Snake”, “Elephant”, water cannon “Dolphin”, waterfall “Gibok”, under which it will be pleasant to stand and enjoy the cool water flowing in small streams.
In the children's area, as well as in the adult area, there are professional instructors on duty who closely monitor the movement of visitors to avoid unpleasant situations.
Parents can stay with their children in the children's area, there are no restrictions here.
Cafes and restaurants
On the territory of the water park there are several different cafes: “Moryachka”, “The Little Mermaid”, “Picnic”. For those who are hungry and want to relax in the shade, this is a great place. The cuisine is both European and Russian. Various soft drinks, tea, coffee. Super-fast waiters who won't keep anyone waiting. Cleanliness and order at every table. The menu is very varied. Here you can celebrate a birthday or any other holiday.
What slides are there in the water park?
The complex is divided into a year-round indoor area and an open summer area, operating from June to October. In both parts of the park there are swimming pools, children's sections with fountains and mini-slides, as well as 8 large water slides up to 17 m high and up to 156 m long.
The longest slide in the park's indoor area is the Black Hole . In complete darkness, you face a 90-meter descent with sharp turns on rubber mattresses. Fans of extreme sports in the closed part of the complex will also enjoy the Kamikaze , where, due to the steep angle of the track, you can accelerate to a speed of 10 m/s. The length of the descent is 60 m.
Of the simple slides that are also suitable for children, in the covered part there is a “Pigtail” , which consists of two intertwined pipes about 50 m long. The descent occurs from a height of 13.7 m.
In the summer part of AquaLoo there is the longest slide of the park - SpaceBot . Taking sharp turns, you will rush at high speed from a height of 16 meters along a 156-meter track. You need to ride on inflatable rafts.
, the “Space Coaster” will also be attractive . After descending through a closed pipe, you will find yourself in a bowl-funnel, from where, after overcoming several turns, you will fall into the pool. The length of the slide is 95 m, the height is 14 m.
If you want to feel like overcoming the rapids of a mountain river, choose the “Rafting” . Here the stream of water will carry you at a decent speed from a height of 14 m along an open track, in some places twisted in a spiral.
