Aqua Dome Tours and Activities



Whatever the weather, Tralee’s Aqua Dome is one place you’ll be guaranteed to get wet – and you won’t mind a bit.

One of Ireland’s largest indoor waterparks, Aqua Dome promises tropical temperatures all year round and there’s plenty of fun to be had by swimmers and non-swimmers alike.

The main attraction is Aqua Dome Waterworld. This massive indoor/outdoor swimming complex boasts outdoor falling rapids, a sky high flume ride, wave machines, whirlpools, lazy rivers, gushers, geysers, children’s pools, bubbles, sprays, cannons and castles.

Waterworld is sure to wow kids and even parents might find themselves feeling young again, as they hurtle, spray and splash their way from one attraction to the next.

For those who prefer a more relaxing experience, Aqua Dome also offers a steam room, an invigorating cold bath and a jacuzzi with a good view of the main pool. There’s even a gym for visitors who’d rather work up a sweat.

Once you’re in, you can stay all day – there’s more than enough to keep you busy until closing time. If you find your fingers getting a little wrinkly from swimming, why not take a break and play 18 holes of mini golf? Generously, the putter and ball are included in the price of admission to Waterworld.

So if you fancy staying indoors, but still want a fun day your family won’t forget, Aqua Dome is brimming with possibilities.
