Aqua Mundo, Water park in Mandres, France
Aqua Mundo is a water park in Mandres with multiple swimming areas including wave pools, children's sections, and interconnected water slides within a temperature-controlled indoor space. The entire complex enables year-round swimming in a tropical climate with various water attractions suitable for different age groups.
Center Parcs developed Aqua Mundo to redefine year-round swimming in a tropical environment and create an alternative to seasonal outdoor pools. The project emerged from a desire to bring water recreation inland and make it more accessible.
It represents modern French leisure culture and draws families seeking shared aquatic experiences. Visitors encounter locals who regularly use the facilities as a way to escape daily routines.
The park opens at 10 a.m. on weekdays and extends hours on weekends. Wear appropriate footwear since floors can be wet, and bring or acquire swimwear before entering.
The water uses reduced chlorine levels compared to standard pools, making it gentler on eyes and skin. This is especially notable for children and people with sensitive skin.
