Discovery Bay will make summer ‘Funtastic’ again for all ages! From 6 to 20 August, daredevils can experience the rush of adrenalin when sliding down the towering inflatable slides on Tai Pak Beach, or challenging themselves at the inflatable Beach Arena. Meanwhile, kids can also have a taste of speed when battling out in mini powerboats, and enjoy more fun games at the inflatable playground at DB North Plaza. All activities are FREE!
After having an action day out, it is best to unwind at the renowned alfresco dining hotspot D'Deck and DB North Plaza with some fine cuisine from around the world, or book a stay at Auberge Discovery Bay Hong Kong to savour all the Funtastic Summer Discovery Bay has to offer!
Inflatable Slide x Beach Arena1 – Your must-try!
The six gigantic inflatable slides come in various heights (3m, 4.5m, 6m and 8m). After trying the “modest” slides, get ready to climb the ladder for the ultimate test of courage: the 8-metre-tall sensational slide!
If you think you are agile and spry, then the inflatable Beach Arena is not something to be missed. Be prepared to dodge giant inflatable rods coming at you from all sides at the "Sweeper", and push your limb coordination to the limit at the "Brave Young Jumper"! The beanbag sofas, deck chairs and beach umbrellas are all free for use, and the giant misting arch offers a quick way to cool off and chill out.
A Joyful Wonderland for the Youths
Kids can have a blast riding the Mini Powerboats2 on Tai Pak Beach, before trying out the new playground amenities imported from the U.S. and northern Europe, such as the rope play tower, the Supernova wheel, the zip line course and specialty swings. These unique facilities definitely offer fun and excitement for the youths.
Still looking for more thrills after beach games? DB North Plaza offers additional inflatable fun with three sets of bouncy houses that are both entertaining and challenging, while weekend balloon twisting demonstrations will no doubt make your family day at Discovery Bay more memorable and joyful.
