Benidorm for Children
Benidorm is a holiday paradise for children. First of all there is the
fantastic beach which will keep them amused for hours. Climbing frames are set
up in several places near the back of the beach and there are trips across to
Benidorm Island on a glass bottom boat or submarine.
Next there are some fabulous theme parks which are hugely popular with children
of all ages. Terra Mitica has some of the best rides of any park in Europe
whilst next door is Terra Natura, a kind of zoo/safari park with a great
waterslide area. Mundomar is an aquatic animal park where the dolphin shows are
the highlight and Aqualandia next to it is Europe's largest water park.
Other child friendly activities include the Medieval Evening where the children
enjoy the horse shows whilst the parents tuck into dinner and wine. There is
also a funfair and mini-golf which is great for young children along
Avda. Mediterraneo and there's a ten pin bowling alley next door.
Many of the bars are well aware of the importance of looking after the
children and provide some great entertainment that the kids love. Pancho's is
great for younger children where Captain Britain plays games with them such as
musical chairs. Older children will enjoy the hypnotist who often follows.
Unfortunately, a perennial favourite, Phil the Clown is no longer with us.
In the Cellar Bar Louie the Clown is brilliant with the kids. He gets them
participating in all kinds of party games and dances then does competitions in
which they win sweets as prizes. Be prepared to be dragged up with your child
for the competitions. After the clown show there's usually more child friendly
entertainment such as a dog show or magic show which is great for all the
family.
Many bars show afternoon films which coincide with happy hour so just keep your
eye open for what's on on the billboards outside bars. The karaoke at Churchill's
is another popular event for all ages.
