With attractions, games, pirates, and theater, every day is an adventure. Of course, both guests staying at the resort and day visitors are welcome to enter the park. For the best price, purchase admission tickets online at least one day before your visit.

Pool area

Just like the Daftö pirates, we love water in all its forms. Here, there are three pools with pirate ships, waterfalls, water cannons, slides, and lookout towers. Board a pirate ship in the adventure pool and splash your friends or siblings with the water cannon.
