Tembo Falls

Water Ride Child Splashin’ Safari

If you like Safari Sam’s SplashLand then you’ll love Tembo Falls junior water slides!

Located near Kima Bay, these eight junior water slides are perfect for smaller children and their families to enjoy. From racing slides to twisters and even a mini-Bakuli – these slides provide all sorts of junior thrills!

Each slide ends with a “run out,” so there aren’t any splash pools.

Right next to Tembo Falls is another fun attraction – Tembo Tides, a junior wave pool!
