Ahoy Mates!

Beaches, waterfalls, springs, swimming pools and lakes have been always the summer destination if you live in Mindanao. Pools do exist but such big amusement park like Enchanted Kingdom is located in the urban part of Luzon which is very far from Mindanao. Last quarter of 2017 last year, the anticipated first ever waterpark in the Philippines had launched its soft opening. Though they fully opened on 15th December 2017, the soft opening of *Seven Seas Waterpark & Resort* had become a hit. Located at Opol, Cagayan de Oro, you can bring your friends and family to cool down.

Last December 2017, we surprised our daughter on her 7th Birthday by going home without everyone knowing. So, we’re there only for a week and since my baby had a class in the full weekdays, we maximized our time to celebrate her birthday thrice. Having been in Yas Island Waterparks in Abu Dhabi, my daughter requested for us to take her there. And so, we granted her wish by going there hours before our flight going back to Manila - Abu Dhabi.

The waterpark is just 5-10 minutes near the highway and is accessible to any kind of private transportation. Below is the entrance fee. Good news for the credit card holders as they accept payment through cards. ☺ As for the FOODS, they do not allow foods from the outside but worry not, there is a big cafe inside where you can buy foods, water and snacks for a very affordable price. Comparing the prices in Yas Waterworld Abu Dhabi, Sevenseas is affordable.

The parking area is wide and very clean. I always opt for clean places as it is refreshing in the eye. When we went to the booth to buy our tickets, the staffs are very welcoming and attentive to our questions. When we entered the place, I am amazed by the structures and coolness of the place. It is oozing with bright colours and very perfect for summer season.

Rides for the Adults

Adults can enjoy here too as there are rides available for them. To be able to try the rides, safety precautions and proper swimming attire should be worn. No cotton clothes are allowed.

_{If you are an adrenaline seaker, they have rides available for the adults.}

For Kids/Adults Section

Well, some adults do not want to try the adrenaline rides so we opted for the kids' slides. LOL. Here we are dominating the kids playground. :D

Mighty Maui River

They also have the MIGHTY MAUI RIVER where you can enjoy riding in the balloons and just have yourself float and led to the other side of the place. It's a long river and riding along with your family or friends makes it even more fun.

Pool Wave

Well who's up for the sea waves? They have the whole pool with sea waves experience. This makes kid very happy. The waves will come every after 30 minutes and the water is so clean and clear.

Overall, the place is so beautiful and very clean. Every station has a lifeguard which is very good for the kids. Parents will not worry as almost every posts, a lifeguard is assigned. The kids inside us just love the experience. This is a must go place for everyone. The standard and quality of the place is comparable to what we have here in Abu Dhabi, UAE. I'm very happy that this kind of waterpark was built in Mindanao. Indeed, It's more fun in the Philippines!
