WATER slides, themed saunas, pool bars and a spa – could somewhere be more fun?
Suntago Water Park in Poland is the biggest indoor waterpark in Europe, offering enough fun for a multi-day visit.
And now, it is even easier for tourists to head to the park as a new bus service runs directly from Warsaw Chopin Airport to the park.
Having launched on June 1, the bus service will run until the end of the season on August 31.
The service from the airport takes around 45 minutes, runs a few times a day in each direction and costs around £13.20 return.
Visitors can also hop on a bus from Warsaw taking about 55 minutes and running each hour for £9.14 return.

Or catch one from Żyrardów taking about 20 minutes and running several times a day for £4.06 return.
Inside, the park really is huge with 18 pools, 35 slides and numerous saunas.
When it comes to the pools there are several featuring different minerals or chemical elements that have different health benefits.
For example, you could take a dip in the magnesium pool (34C), which is rumoured to help skin disorders as well as relax muscles.
On the other hand, if you want to soothe dry skin then head to the calcium pool (34C).
Other mineral pools include a lithium pool to reduce stress, a potassium pool which can help with reducing blood pressure and a sulphur pool ideal for visitors who suffer with joint issues.
If you’re not into mineral pools though and would rather go for a swim, then you can head to the outdoor pool instead, with a swim-up bar for a tipple.
Another outdoor pool even has a hot tub and – instead of a lazy river – a ‘crazy river’.
Back inside, there’s a bubbling spring pool (32C) and a wave pool, both ideal for relaxing and having a splash.
Though for a bit more fun, make sure to head on the Mamba Adventure River that’s a 130-metre long pool through a cave-like area with glowing green lights.
Little ones aren’t left out either as there is a baby pool right next to a Pirates’ Playground.
But there is more fun for kids than this, with 35 different waterslides across five floors.
These include three snake-themed rides where you even come out of a snake’s mouth.
On Anaconda, for example, you’ll be launched nearly 20 metres before racing through a number of twists and bends.
If you are brave enough there is another waterslide called Teleport, which features a fast and unexpected drop.
Families wanting to stick together can try out Toucan and Arara in four-person rafts or get competitive on racing waterslides.
If all those pools and slides weren’t enough, there’s also more than 13 different heated rooms, including saunas and a frigidarium.
There’s a classic wooden sauna with a viking-themed twist, heated to a near-boiling 95C and an Egyptian Village where there are five saunas themed around different areas of Egypt including the Sahara Desert.
If you like the idea of a sauna but don’t want it too hot, head to the Korean Sauna, that is 38C and also plays calming music.
Or for something more exciting, head into the Aquarium Sauna with a number of fish tanks to watch.
You could also be transported to the Maldives in the Paradise Beach sauna or to Mont Blanc in the chilly frigidarium which is -7C.
Last but not least, there is a salt grotto which has a “seaside-like microclimate” and blocks upon blocks of salt ideal for helping your nervous system.
If you want to level up your wellness experience, there is a spa onsite too.
After all the splashing about and relaxing, if you want a bite to eat there are a number of restaurants and cafes onsite.
You can make even it a whole weekend event by staying at the Suntago Village, just five minutes from the park.
Kids can only access the Jamango zone where you’ll find pools and the slides, costing from £20.10 a day.
On the other hand adults can access the Jamango zones, as well as the Relax and Saunaria zones from £33.30 a day.
