A day under the sun and surrounded by water is what we all want during summer in the Philippines. But if you think that the beach is just too far, the most playful water park is just the ticket.
Fontana Water Park, at the heart of Fontana Leisure Park in Clarkfield, Pampanga is the best place to enjoy the sun especially for kids. The Mad Scientist Water Laboratory, The Buccaneer Ship, Lazy River and the recently added Dinosaur Island, are some of the water themed parks that the kiddies will certainly enjoy.
For adults, the lazy River, the world-class wave pool and the three giant aqua thrill slides will certainly satisfy your summer desire. A number of bar lagoons, souvenir shops and food stores are available for your convenience.
You can stay overnight by booking a Fontana Villa or just swim for a whole day. The facilities in the park are complete and very clean. Showers are numerous and canopy trees are everywhere to relax under their shade.
Weekdays: Open from 8:30 am - 6 pm
Entrance fee: 375php
Weekends: Open from 8:30 am - 10 pm
