What to do and see in Western Cape, South Africa: The Best Water & Amusement Parks
South Africa’s most popular tourist destination offers the urban thrills of Cape Town, its adjacent wine country and an aura of the rich political history of South Africa. The Overberg's perfect whale-watching perches provide excitement of a different nature. The Garden Route's lakes and forests and the Klein Karoo's ostrich-farming towns and vineyards present another take on the Cape. For extra kicks, try bungee jumping or cage-diving among Great Whites.

Bugz Family PlayPark is the largest playpark in the Western Cape! WOW! We have a world of activities for kids who love climbing, jumping, running, exploring, thinking and engaging with a range of zones we've worked very hard to build. You see everything we've built has a purpose - to help bright buttons grow through play. Our massive outdoor playground will challenge little minds, work little muscles and burn off some of that endless energy the right way. Our magnificent indoor area is for kids aged 2-10 and filled with obstacles, challenges and imagination-expanding FUN! We say no to keeping kids bored indoors all day and yes to learning through play, it's The Bugz Way.

Great place to visit with the family! A lot to do with the kids and a place they can cool of as well in the splash pools! Not expensive at all!

Thank you to Markham and the team for making my son's birthday so special. The professionalism and service of all the staff is to be commended, from entry to the catering crew and lifeguards. A wonderful time was had by all. I am sure that we will be regulars as all the children now want their birthday parties at your venue.
5. Adventure Land - Water Slides and Play Park
Overall Ratings
4.0 based on 99 reviews
Adventure Land Water Park is set on a 24 hectare property. Enjoy the 75m long supertube and a 25m mini supertube for the little ones as well as a kamakazi slide and a 12m high free fall slide - not for the faint hearted. Race down the 2 lane racer or spin around on the raging rapid tube ride. For the toddlers there are 2 little slides that plunge into a kiddies pool, plus a play park with swings and a jungle gym. Spend the day having fun, enjoy the braai area and wide open spaces. Centrally situated along the Garden Route between Plettenberg Bay and Knysna, just 3km from Garden of Eden.

We just turned up ‘on spec’ and walked straight on, no need to book. We had a supposedly air conditioned cabin to ourselves but we were so hot we had to open the small windows at the top. The cabins offer amazing 360 degree views over the V & A Waterfront; the Victoria & Alfred Hotel, harbour, docks and cruise terminal, Victoria Wharf shopping centre, and of course wonderful views of the iconic Table Mountain. We could not see Robben Island where we had been earlier. We had 5 revolutions so had plenty of opportunities to take good photographs of the panoramic views. We certainly enjoyed our ride but ‘passed’ on the extremely expensive photographs available on our exit!
