Oliver RoyMake a splash at the best water parks in & around Montreal
Full disclosure: I’m not the biggest fan of hot weather. Give me sweater weather and a pumpkin spice latte any day. But even I have to admit, there’s something magical about Montreal in the summertime. The city comes alive with festivals, outdoor markets, and a palpable joie de vivre.
The only problem is that the heat can be brutal when you’re trying to enjoy all of that. That’s why I’ve made it my mission to uncover the ultimate ways to make the summer heat bearable within this bustling metropolis: the water parks. Yes, Montreal has water parks (some near it).
So let’s dive into the coolest spots where you can escape the swelter and maybe even catch a tan (with plenty of SPF, of course).
