Find the Best Splash Pads in Ottawa
A new splash pad with some innovative structures and jets. We were especially impressed with the Aqualien Power Spinner (aka cool spinning flower).
Although it’s a new park the city built a gazebo for shade. There is also a play structure at this park.
A novel themed splash pad. The pad is shaped like a lily pad. The structures at the park include a froggy archway and a cattail post. This one was our daughter’s favourite of the day – it’s a nice splash pad for more hesitant splashers. The pressure is gentle and there is nothing unpredictable or that can be targeted at others.
There are many older trees at this park so there is plenty of shade. There are also swings and a playstructure at the park.
A nice quiet little splash pad with a red archway and a couple of ground sprinklers. (We really like the pretty star shape spray pattern that these loops make.) There’s a picnic table under a gazebo nearby as well as a regular play structure.
