Description
Waterpark "Nautilus" in Lazarevsky is an entertainment complex located in the open air. Of the attractions there are water slides of various difficulty levels and several small pools. The territory of the water park itself is ennobled: the paths are paved with tiles, between which flower beds are planted, palms and cypresses grow. There are cafes and eateries. The main feature of the Nautilus is very steep and extreme slides.
Waterslides:
“Tsunami” is the craziest and most extreme water slide of the park, very high. The shape resembles a large bowl, on the walls of which a person, swaying from side to side, glides along the water. After rolling it with a stream of water carries it out to the pool. There is an age limit (up to 14 years).
This slide is the second most extreme after the Tsunami. A high rise, and then a sharp descent will cause a real rush of adrenaline. There are only two slides, one yellow, the other pink, they are parallel to each other. They can compete who quickly flopped into the pool. Fans of heights and extreme sports will certainly enjoy such entertainment.
Only the name scares, in fact, this slide is not black, but a blue-white color, twisted into a spiral. They go down on it in an inflatable "bagel". Just a few minutes in the dark, and you already jump out of the pipe into the warm water.
“Tobogan” is an open water slide of a white color, somewhat similar in shape to the “Black Hole”, the same long and twisted. Descent on a cheesecake.
This attraction is shaped like a braided pigtail. Two slides of blue color twist together at the very beginning. The slides are less steep and safer than previous rides. The slopes are almost straight and quite high. This is more a family entertainment in which both children and parents can participate.
Four slides of different colors parallel to each other. The descent along them is smooth, without sudden changes. The whole family can arrange speed competitions. The youngest member of the family must win.
- Children's town "Fantasy".
In the middle of the pool for the smallest, a children's town has been built, consisting of various attractions. There is not much water in the pool, so kids can swim in it without fear. "Town" consists of several slides, a small fountain and structures in the form of houses. It will be interesting for the child to climb through numerous tunnels, ladders, passages. And you can stand under a barrel, which periodically turns over and douses water from head to toe. Child safety is monitored by experienced rescue instructors.
Each water attraction has small pools - this is a very interesting design idea. There is also a separate swimming pool equipped with a hydromassage system. Around there is everything for a comfortable stay, deck chairs, sun loungers, umbrellas are installed.
