Our verdict

If you can only do one and the weather's hot, choose Siam Park — it's regularly voted the world's best water park and it's right by the southern resorts, so it's an easy, high-energy day. Pick Loro Parque instead if you've got younger or animal-loving kids and don't mind the drive north for the orca, dolphin, and parrot shows. If you want both, buy the combined Siam Park & Loro Parque ticket: it's cheaper than two separate entries and valid on different days, so you can space the two parks out rather than do them back to back.

About Siam Park vs Loro Parque

Everything you should know before you book

Siam Park and Loro Parque are Tenerife's two flagship parks, but they're opposite kinds of day out. Siam Park, the Thai-themed water park above Costa Adeje in the south, is regularly voted the best water park in the world — the Tower of Power slide and the wave pool are the headliners. Loro Parque, up in Puerto de la Cruz in the north, is an animal and show park with orcas, dolphins, sea lions, and one of the largest parrot collections anywhere, set in botanical gardens.

The decision usually comes down to your group and the drive. Siam Park is a high-energy water day right by the southern resorts; Loro Parque is a gentler, all-ages animal day but it's roughly 90 minutes north. The table below breaks down what each park is, price, time, location, and who they suit — and if you want both, the combined twin ticket is cheaper than two separate entries and is valid across different days.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

Siam Park or Loro Parque — which is better?

Siam Park if you want a world-ranked water park by the southern resorts and hot-weather thrills; Loro Parque if you want an all-ages animal and show park and don't mind the drive north. They're different days out, not better or worse.

Can you do both Siam Park and Loro Parque?

Yes — the combined twin ticket is cheaper than two separate entries and is valid across different days, so you can spread the two parks out rather than do them back to back. They sit on opposite ends of the island.

Is Loro Parque far from the southern resorts?

Yes — Loro Parque is in Puerto de la Cruz in the north, roughly a 90-minute drive from Costa Adeje and Los Cristianos. Free shuttle buses run from the major resorts. Siam Park, by contrast, is right beside the south coast.
