PortAventura World has unveiled two major new family experiences set to open in summer 2026, expanding and renewing the offer at both PortAventura Park and Caribe Aquatic Park. The announcements were made during FITUR 2026, Spain’s leading international tourism trade fair.
The new attractions, “Coral Bay, The Lost Legend” and “Makamanu Jungle, The Adventure Trek”, are designed to combine adventure, immersion and fun for all ages, reinforcing PortAventura World’s position as one of Europe’s leading family leisure destinations.
New immersive experiences for families
“Coral Bay, The Lost Legend” will be a new 6,000 m² family area at Caribe Aquatic Park. Inspired by a legendary pirate bay that has re-emerged after centuries beneath the ocean, the new zone will feature a family water coaster unique in Europe, an adventure pool with a one-of-a-kind aquatic obstacle course, new water slides and a new food and beverage outlet. This expansion strengthens Caribe Aquatic Park’s positioning as one of Europe’s top family water parks.
Meanwhile, “Makamanu Jungle, The Adventure Trek” will open in the Polynesia area of PortAventura Park as a new outdoor adventure trail. The experience invites visitors to explore the heart of the jungle through elevated walkways, hanging bridges and nature-integrated challenges, designed to spark curiosity and an adventurous spirit in both children and adults. Inspired by Polynesian mythology, the name Makamanu refers to the “bird’s eye view” and reinforces the attraction’s sense of exploration and connection with nature.
Fernando Aldecoa, CEO of PortAventura World, commented:
“At PortAventura World, we continue to evolve our offer to deliver increasingly memorable experiences. We listen closely to our guests, and the new attractions launching in 2026 reflect our commitment to surprising them and creating unique experiences for visitors of all ages.”
Both attractions will open to the public in summer 2026 and form part of the resort’s broader growth strategy, strengthening its leadership in European family and leisure tourism.
