This is a place full of fun facts and imaginative water sculptures made from old things, all sorts of things. It is initiative, ingenious, and very very interactive. The setting is stunning with a beautiful river and a swimming hole on site. The cafe also...More
HI and thanks for taking the time to review the park and make the positive comments. I apologise that some of the exhibits were out of action, The flying bicycles are waiting for a part to arrive from Hamilton, our location doesn't make it easy...More
Notwithstanding one of the most difficult roads from Whitianga to the location, the end result was well worth the minor stress of the 20 or so km to get there! We travelled with two grandchildren - one still in a pram, the other 3 years...More
We visited on a very hot day earlier this week & were grateful for the shade. It was surprisingly entertaining for 2 retired folk & definitely released the inner kid in us! We thought the exhibits were ingenious & fun & can see how they...More
Stopped here as all the promos said it was great. Was disappointed. Expensive to get in and definitely not worth the money. Displays were run down and grubby. A couple of the displays were mildly interesting; some were broken; some were just poorly designed.More
Thank you for taking the time to respond in writing to your experience at Waterworks, it's a pity you didn't speak to me personally whilst you were there and highlighted your concerns and told me exactly which installations needed attention. I would imagine that you...More

We had a terrific time at this place. My kids are early teens and we had a fab time trying to wet each other, working out how each piece squirts and reading the quirky boards. We finished it off with a dip in the river.
I totally agree with Stella405 that this previously fun place is slipping into almost disrepair. We also live close by and regularly take family and visitors. This time we felt apologetic and embarrassed as we constantly found activities not working and a general run-down feel....More
This is an interesting place but not for everyone! our teenagers were not that keen, young kids thought it was great. Safety needs to be looked at in a number of places. Not sure it was worth the money for adults. Hard place to really...More
In what seems like the middle of nowhere this place was a great little find. Quaint and quirky it has lots of little clever water features, nice change to modern hi-tech children’s places. Great play park as well.
Water activities are very simple, but lots of fun. There is a swimming hole and a great playground. Stuff is very friendly. We spent about 3 great hours there.
