Check the Right Alpamare Visit Details Before You Book
Alpamare planning starts with the selected date, not a random voucher code. The official price page controls the live ticket bands, opening times, spa options, extra-time rules and late-session offers.
This guide gives you the exact visitor decisions: what to book, which rules to check, what children can ride, how the 3-hour swim time works, where to park, and when to call before travelling.
For Alpamare Scarborough, the correct first action is to check the official Ticket Prices page for your selected date. Alpamare says opening and closing times vary through the year, and its ticket-prices page gives the most up-to-date times and pricing before planning a visit.
- All tickets include three hours of waterpark access, subject to park closing times.
- Extra time in the waterpark is listed at £1 per half-hour, per person.
- Adult, child, toddler and family prices can change by date, session and season.
- Spa entrance, treatments, food, refreshments and travel are separate checks.

Open terms and conditionsAlpamare Prices, Ticket Categories and Time Rules
Do not hard-plan from an old screenshot. Alpamare asks visitors to select a date to view ticket prices, and the page can show different price bands and opening times by date.

|---|---|---|
| Adult | Adult category is listed as 15+. | Count anyone aged 15 or over as an adult ticket category. |

| Toddler | Toddler category is listed as ages 0-3. | Pack swim nappies for children who are not toilet trained. |

| Hydro Café extension | Guests purchasing a meal in the Hydro Café have admission time extended by 30 minutes. | Useful for families eating inside, but confirm live terms on your date. |
Step-by-Step: Book Alpamare Without Wasting Money
Select your exact date. Do not use old prices, screenshots or search snippets for final planning.
Your ticket gives three hours access, but it is still subject to the park’s closing time on that date.
Separate adults 15+, children 4-14 and toddlers 0-3. Check whether your family ticket category really matches your group.
Cresta Run, Olympic Run, Black Run and Snowstorm have minimum height and age requirements.
Under-8s and under-4s have specific adult-supervision requirements in the water.
Use the official booking page, but call admissions if the website has payment notices, voucher issues or access questions.
Keep your booking email, phone battery, towels, swimwear, payment card and parking plan ready.
Decision Cards: Which Alpamare Plan Fits Your Visit?
Choose by visitor need. This helps avoid buying a waterpark ticket when you needed spa access, or buying a thrill-slide visit for a child below the minimum height.
Family swim day
Best route: selected-date waterpark booking.
- Check age categories.
- Plan for 3-hour waterpark access.
- Read under-8 supervision rules.
Thrill-slide day
Best route: check height and age first.
- Cresta Run: 1.1m and age 6+.
- Olympic Run: 1.2m and age 6+.
- Black Run / Snowstorm: 1.2m and age 8+.
Spa and relaxation
Best route: use Wellness & Spa planning.
- Spa entrance is separate on the price page.

Slides, Pools and Ride Rules
Alpamare lists four state-of-the-art slides, a wave pool, a Splash and Play area, heated outdoor garden pool and outdoor heated infinity pool. Use the rules below before buying tickets for children.
| Attraction | Official-source detail | Practical visitor tip |
|---|---|---|
| Cresta Run | Minimum 1.1m and age 6+. | Best first height check for younger children wanting a major slide. |
| Olympic Run | Minimum 1.2m and age 6+. | Confirm height before queuing because 1.2m is the key threshold. |
| Black Run | Minimum 1.2m and age 8+. | Better for confident swimmers and thrill riders. |
| Snowstorm | Minimum 1.2m and age 8+. | Explain the age rule before arrival if a younger child wants this ride. |
| Wave pool | The wave pool erupts every 30 minutes with metre-high waves. | Keep weak swimmers close and avoid wave sessions if children dislike water over the face. |
| Outdoor pools | The accessibility statement describes an outdoor garden pool and outdoor infinity pool. | Check the live notice if a pool is limited, closed or weather-affected. |
Children, Babies and Non-Swimmer Rules
This is the section parents should read before checkout. Ticket availability does not remove supervision duties inside the waterpark.
Children under 12
Children under 12 are only permitted when accompanied by an adult, and adults must actively supervise them during the whole stay.
Children under 8
Children under 8 should be supervised in the water by a responsible person aged 16 or over, with a maximum of two under-8s per adult in the water.
Children under 4
Children under 4 should be supervised one-to-one in the water, regardless of whether they can swim.
Weak and non-swimmers
Weak or non-swimmers must be supervised and may need flotation aids. Non-swimmers are only permitted in pool and slide areas when accompanied by a competent swimmer or wearing flotation aids.
Voucher and Discount Rules to Check Before Checkout

| One voucher limit | One voucher per transaction. | Do not stack multiple vouchers or combine with other offers unless the official basket allows it. |

| What is excluded | Voucher terms say spa access, paid treatments, food, refreshments and travel are not included. | Budget these separately even if your swim ticket is discounted. |
Facilities, Food, Wristbands and Accessibility
These practical details affect the real experience more than a small ticket discount: lockers, wristbands, outside-food rules, step-free access, carer support and slide-tower stairs.
| Need | Official-source detail | Visitor action |
