Christchurch Quay Splashpark

Following a very busy summer the Splash Park is now closed. This summer has been the busiest we ever had, which is largely due to the fantastic weather. We would like to thank everyone who has used our facility responsibly this year and we look forward to welcoming you back in May 2019.

Splashpark Update #3: Our team are working hard this morning to get the Splashpark up and running as normal today, but here is a photo of some of the litter we removed yesterday.
We are particularly concerned about the small micro-balloons that we have found, they are of the type that can be used as ‘water bombs’ and if discarded into the water system they can cause us a lot of problems.
Can we please ask that you do not bring these to the Splashpark, there are lots of ways to have fun with all the water jets and sprays that we have there already! Thank you, as always, for your help in keeping our lovely Splashpark open...

Splashpark Update #2: We have managed to make a temporary repair to the surfacing and have got one of the pumps to work, so the Splashpark is open again today.
We are potentially going to have to close it again later this week to do a more permanent job so please stay tuned for further updates. We need everyone to be really careful not to discard any waste into the system which could block the remaining pump, and please please please use swim nappies for the little ones.
We know how much you all appreciate our Splashpark and thank you for all your messages of support, it really means a lot to us to hear that. If we work together we can keep this facility free for everyone to use which has always been our goal.

Splashpark Update #1: We are very sorry but we are going to have to keep the Splashpark closed for now, we need to replace the main pumping mechanism and also repair some of the safety surfacing which was damaged last week. We will try to get it up and running as soon as possible, we will keep you all updated on this page so please check in daily. Thank you for you patience.

Engineers are on site this morning currently assessing the problem, meanwhile the splashpark is closed.

Unfortunately we will have to close the Splashpark this weekend as yet another blockage has caused both of our submersible pumps to burn out. We are investigating the cause of this and will try to get it back up and running as soon as possible, but can we please ask that our little visitors do not take food into the wet area, and can our grown ups please also ensure that the really young ones are wearing a swim nappy? They are available from the nearby kiosk, or at local stores. Thank you in advance for your help and patience.

The Splashpark is up and running as normal. Thank you for your understanding whilst we undertook the relevant maintenance. Enjoy the sunshine today.

The Splashpark is closed today, we will let you know when it will re-open in the morning following an early morning maintenance check.

We hope you all are enjoying this fabulous weather, Christchurch Quay has been so busy and we would like to say a massive thank you to everyone for popping all their litter in the bins provided. We have been getting lots of messages asking if the Splash Park is currently open. It is open daily from 10am - 7pmish daily until early September. If we have to close for maintenance or cleaning we will endeavour to notify everyone via this page with as much notice as possible.

Remember to head down to Christchurch Music Festival on the Quay this weekend.

It's great to see so many people enjoying the Splash Park. Please can we ask that inflatables arent used within the site.

The Splash Park is open. Come and cool off and have some fun. Don't forget your swim nappies as litte mishaps have big consequences. The kiosk is selling swim nappies for a £1.00.

Unfortunately the Splash Park cannot re-open this afternoon as works have taken longer than planned. We aim to re-open the Park tomorrow morning as soon as possible.

The Splash Park is currently closed for maintenance and we hope to re-open on Friday afternoon.

We have pulled out all the stops and are pleased to announce that the Splash Park is now open for business daily between 10am and 7pm. Remember your swim nappies or pop along to the ice cream kiosk and pick one up. Little accidents could cause a 24 hour closure.

We have received a number of enquiries as to whether the Splashpark is open this weekend, we are still getting the Splashpark maintained and the scheduled opening weekend is the late May Bank Holiday weekend.

Rabble is a new Hiit style workout using social games. Come down to Christchurch Quay on Sunday Mornings at 10am for your first free game.

Isn't it great to see the sunshine, it feels like its been a while. Preparations are in full swing to get the Splash Park open for May Half Term. In the mean time come and enjoy the Play Area and lovely open green space.

Perfect for a hot day with the kids,or even without! lovely enclosed park,cafe,icecream hut,boat trips,splash park and sometimes little kiddies rides aswell.Perfect for a cheap day out.Always clean and tidy,looked after well.

sell Duck/swan food at £1 a bag,kids love feeding them while there.

Loved it, really worth going to. My daughter thoroughly enjoyed herself...even when it did rain for a bit

Kids loved it. Was amazing and can't believe it is free � took us just over an hour to get there but 5 extremely happy tired out kiddies. More areas need this. And can't believe how well kept and clean it was

Had a lovely day splash park is clean & tidy would visit again.

Excellent park and water play, couldn't drag my grandchildren away, impressed by the scientific play with the Archimedes screw and water wheel, great entertainment and a cheap day out,

Enjoyed watching grandson here.

Clean,safe beautiful place, ideal for parents to watch the kids enjoy the water. Only thing I might add is a little more sitting room for parents as I did find it a bit difficult to find a seat.

But why have they made the pool bit so small. So many older kids there needs some shaded canopies good fun for s hour
