La Revanche des Pirates - Le Grand Splatch, Water ride in Parc Astérix, France.
La Revanche des Pirates - Le Grand Splatch is a water ride at Parc Astérix that sends boats through channels and over drops. The course covers over half a kilometer with multiple twists and turns before reaching its dramatic final plunge.
The attraction opened when Parc Astérix launched in April 1989. It represented an early example of this ride type to be built in Europe at that time.
The water ride follows a French theme park tradition of combining entertainment with water features, accommodating 1,400 visitors per hour in nine boats.
Wear water-resistant or quick-dry clothing, as splashing is part of the experience. It is wise to store personal items in a safe, dry location before boarding.
The attraction's final segment includes a rapid descent followed by a bump, sending water splashing over the boat and surrounding area.
