Soak And Slide
Scout|April - June 2019

Heat? We don’t know her! Not in Aqua Planet, that is. The adrenaline-inducing rides and crystal clear waters make sure of it.

Soak And Slide

What's a good escape from the scorching summer heat? Most of the time, an ice-cold beverage does the trick, but that's thinking small. A beach trip, perhaps? Been there, done that. Let's do you one bigger. How does almost 90-degree body slides and over 300-feet high water raft races sound? We thought so.

Then Aqua Planet, a water theme park in Clark, Pampanga is the perfect place to bring some thrill into your summer itinerary. The newly-renovated park has raised its standards to world-class without world-class prices. Think California water parks but without the 16-hour flight, and way more rice meals in the venue.

Aqua Planet's goal for park goers is simple: It's to give you a watermazing experience. (In case you haven't heard, that's a notch above amazing.) On top of the food and facilities, the best part about Aqua Planet is that whatever the size of your summer getaway party, there's bound to be a super slide for you.

For the solo risk-takers (or the people whose friends all chickened out), Aqua Loop is the slide meant for you. You stand over a launch flap before it opens, sending you into a 100-meter free fall that will have you pummeling your way towards a 360-degree loop.
