Waterpark in Santiago?

[katarina29]

I heard something about a water park (as in slides and things) in Santiago. Does anybody know more about it?

It's called Kaskada. It's located just off the Autopista. Use the turn off for Janico. It will be on your right.

Be very careful there. I was there once and saw a lot of accidents, kids walking around bleeding profusely! Not much safety engineered into those "rides." Kids were jumping off of diving boards two or three at a time. Very little oversight. On one of the tube rides I hit my head so hard I almost blacked out. It is a nice people watching area and the beer is cold, pool tables etc. Scope each ride out carefully before allowing your kids to go on them.

What happened? I was going to bring a group of kids from an orphanage there this summer and I think, you changed my mind. La playa might be safer?One without undertow on the North Coast. Stevi

I almost fell several times near one of the food bars, the floor was very slippery. Good thing I was close enough to grab the counter to stop the fall.

Lots of super slippery areas! I cant imagine what material they use for the floors, like an ice skating rink.

I love that place and have never had a problem! I think I will have to go back again soon.

I have been many times and have never had any troubles or problems.

I do not know what is wrong with these people. I went there and had an amazing time. Simply Amazing.

Slipping and falling? Hitting your head? I guess you people spent too much time walking and not enough time in the water. I even did a bit of dancing.

Like any place, you need to be carefully.

Take the kids. They will have the time of their lives.
