Everything you should know before you book
Tenerife is one of Europe's easiest islands with children. The south coast packs in Siam Park — regularly voted the world's best water park — alongside Aqualand and Jungle Park, while Loro Parque in the north pairs orcas, dolphins, and parrots with botanical gardens. Gentler options like a camel ride, a tuk tuk tour, or the family-built Viking pirate cruise fill the in-between hours.
Buy dated tickets for the big parks. Siam Park and Loro Parque get crowded on weekends and through the summer holidays, so a dated ticket guarantees entry and skips the queue, and the combined two-park pass is valid across different days for younger families pacing themselves. This list ranks the family favourites by review score so you can match them to your kids' ages.
Frequently asked questions
What can you do in Tenerife with young children?
Siam Park, Aqualand, and Jungle Park for water and rides; Loro Parque for orcas, dolphins, and parrots; plus camel rides and the Viking pirate cruise for a gentle, themed day out. The beaches and promenades fill the rest.
Is Siam Park suitable for small kids?
Yes — alongside the big-name slides it has a dedicated children's area, the Lost City, and a lazy river, so younger children have plenty at their own level while older ones tackle the Tower of Power.
Should I buy the combined Siam Park and Loro Parque ticket for a family?
If you'll do both, yes — the twin ticket is cheaper than two separate entries and is valid across different days, so you can spread the two parks out rather than cram them into one tiring day with kids.
