Port Aventura

Port Aventura best rides

The park is GIGANTIC and there is a great number of rides to enjoy. Here is a list of the ones that you just have to try:

• Dragon Khan:

The Park’s most emblematic ride. A giant red structure that can be seen from any point within the park. It features 8 loops and reaches speeds of over 110 km an hour.

• Furius Baco:

This is the best ride in the Mediterranean portion of the park. Furius Baco is a giant, ancient Greece-themed roller coaster. Rider hangs off the side, feet dangling, as the ride shoots them out at a break-neck speed of 135 km an hour (the fastest in all of Europe). Not for the faint of heart.

• Tutuki Splash:

You will only have a small wooden boat to escape this Polynesian volcano. Lava will chase you down the mountain as you speed down a river on your raft. Easily the most fun water ride in the park, perfect for a hot day when you need to cool down.

• Tren de la Mina El Diablo:

Another exhilarating roller coaster, this time one of the indoor variety. Guests ride in the dark on a rickety old train down into an abandoned mine, not knowing where the twists and turns are coming from.

• Hurakan Condor:

Located in the Mexico portion of the park. This ride is a free-fall ride. You ascend through a Mexican temple, enjoying the aerial views of the park, knowing that you will drop at any moment. The tower is over 100-meter-tall, so be ready for quite a plunge.

• Silver River Flume:

This ride is located in the far west portion of the park. It is the classic water ride where guests take a plunge from a great hide. Fun, refreshing, a must.

• Shambhala:

Named after the lost city of the Himalayas this roller coaster is equal parts speed and vértigo. It features the largest falls f any roller coaster in Europe. The ride is designed to make you come off your seat and feel like you are truly falling. Scary stuff.

• El Secreto de Los Mayas:

A giant Mayan labyrinth that spans over 175 square meters. This ride will test your wits, your sense of orientation, and puzzle-solving abilities.

• Grand Canyon Rapids:

A White-water- rapids ride down the Colorado River. Your round boat will spin and twist as you rush down the river.

• Tami Tami:

The Park’s best kids’ roller coaster. If you are traveling with kids, you can’t miss out.
