Phuket. The name of this famed international destination in Thailand conjures scenes of postcard beaches, fancy resorts, and vibrant nightlife.

Its massive popularity, however, also leaves visitors longing for something more culturally authentic and at the same time, appealing to all ages. Opened in May 2022, Andamanda water park fills this gap. Covering 9.8 hectares of land, Andamanda is not just a water park; it’s the best of Phuket in one place. Featuring 21 attractions, including 32 water slides—all from WhiteWater—it is the beginning of a larger entertainment complex that will include a 300-room hotel, restaurants, and retail. Featuring a Boomerango with its zero-gravity wall summit, a Master Blaster water slide that is recognized as the first uphill water coaster, and a RainFortress 6 that comes with over 203 features.
