Are you tired of the same old playgrounds and parks in Berlin? Looking for a unique and unforgettable experience for your family? Pack your swimming gear and head over to Spreewelten, a one-of-a-kind aquatic paradise that lets you swim alongside adorable penguins. Yes, you read that right – penguins just outside of Berlin!
Spreewelten, located in Lübbenau, Germany, about an hour outside of Berlin, is an innovative swimming pool that offers endless fun for families. It’s not just a swimming pool – it’s an aquatic adventure that combines water slides, outdoor pools, and a mesmerizing penguin exhibit to create an unforgettable experience for kids and parents alike.
The Penguin Experience
Imagine watching penguins gracefully glide underwater through a crystal-clear window. At Spreewelten, this dream becomes a reality! The park is home to a colony of South African penguins, and visitors can observe them up close as they dive, swim, and play through a gigantic window. There are also regular feeding times when visitors can watch the penguins being fed and swimming around or even participate in the feeding (for a fee, only for 6+ years old). It is also possible to book a guided tour where you can meet the penguins up close.
The penguin experience is visible from the outside and is a truly unique. However, keep in mind that the penguins won’t always be visible as they also have an area away from visitors. But even if the penguins aren’t out, there is plenty to do. The inside area also houses a small penguin themed playground to entertain your kids while you patiently wait for the penguins to appear!
