Aquatopia Water Park is one of the two entertainment zones at Sun World Hon Thom.

Covering an area of 8 hectares, Aquatopia Water Park is one of the two zones of Sun World Hon Thom - the most attractive beach entertainment area in Phu Quoc, set against the stunning natural backdrop of Hon Thom Island. Therefore, this place also boasts a unique landscape compared to other water parks in Vietnam, nestled amidst the lush greenery of centuries-old mango groves and soaring coconut palms.

Aquatopia is invested by Sun Group with state-of-the-art technologies and equipment, featuring world-class water slides from two renowned suppliers: Proslides Technology Inc. Canada and Whitewater West Industries Ltd. Canada - the providers of attractions for globally famous theme parks like Disney Sea and Universal. The 20 attractions at Aquatopia are all designed, supplied, monitored, and installed to international high-quality standards and operated under the supervision of many leading experts from Australia, the Netherlands, and more.

A notable feature in the modern design of Aquatopia Water Park is that all attractions are equipped with touch-sensitive chips along the water slides, which trigger light signals each time a rider passes through. This allows rescue personnel to pinpoint the exact location of riders, ensuring safety for visitors. The lifeguard team here is also certified through the Ellis & Associates International Lifeguarding Program, a prestigious certification program for water park lifeguards worldwide.

Furthermore, the 20 attractions at the park are divided into adventurous zones for adults and a separate play area for children. In the zone for adults, there is a variety of games, from 5-star adventure levels to engaging sports, providing moments of vivid and unprecedented experiences. This includes the Wild Animals zone with the Python Rollercoaster featuring unexpected twists and turns, or the Angry Dragon with winding slides and steep drops creating thrilling moments in mid-air. The excitement level escalates even further at the Mythical Creatures zone, where visitors can join a crowded challenge with friends or family. The Sea King's Revenge with its dragon-shaped funnel sends the raft rocking and free-falling on the water, or the Oceanic Dragon with sharp turns and lightning-fast speeds present a formidable challenge even for the bravest.

For the little ones, they will surely love the Marine Creatures zone, with game designs inspired by colorful animated movies. Here, they will meet adorable friends from the ocean, through small-scale sea currents, miniature starfish, and playful clownfish... all while testing their courage and enhancing their ability to make friends as they enjoy the colorful slides. Here, parents can relax in cool indigenous tents, sipping on refreshing cocktails while watching their children play. Finally, the "lazy river" flowing around the park will be a place for the whole family to play, rest, and relax completely, as the water gently laps against the body and the soul relaxes while admiring the poetic beauty of the island.

Part of the Sun World Hon Thom complex, Aquatopia Water Park also integrates many exciting experiences within it, enriching the traveler's journey with more diversity and emotions. Enjoy the panoramic view of An Thoi Sea from the world's longest 3-wire cable car, challenge your courage in the adventurous Exotica Village, or immerse yourself in the crystal-clear waters at the smooth white sandy beach on the West Coast, or indulge in countless enticing dishes and drinks from the park's restaurant and café system... Every visit to Aquatopia Water Park is a sky full of joy and excitement.

The park is built on a large scale, situated in an impressive location against the backdrop of Phu Quoc's magnificent "pearl island" nature, utilizing cutting-edge and top-notch world-class technologies, enhancing the attractive experience for millions of Vietnamese and international tourists. These are the reasons why Aquatopia Water Park has continuously been named in prestigious awards. This has also contributed to affirming the position of Phu Quoc tourism in particular and Vietnamese tourism in general on the international stage, as a destination that is increasingly safe and attractive, with a series of high-quality and prestigious products, alongside the inherent natural beauty and long-standing culture.
