Kayseri Opens Men-only Aqua Park, Touts It As Region's Largest in Türkiye

Kayseri Metropolitan Municipality has opened a 1,500-capacity aqua park exclusively for male members, billing it as Central Anatolia's largest water park. The facility, which opened on August 22, spans 1,800 square meters and features five water slides. In a statement on its website, the municipality said the aqua park was designed to serve approximately 1,500 people at a time and is set to become one of Kayseri's new summer attractions with its large pool and water slides.

The municipality emphasized that the facility's usage concept was determined to be exclusively for men, allowing visitors to enjoy swimming, cooling off, and using the water slides in a private environment. Meanwhile, the news site Kayserihaber.com reported that due to 'intense demand from women, the aqua park would serve women exclusively on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays. However, the municipality has not issued any statement confirming this.

Online reservations are mandatory to enter the facility, and bookings are made through kayserisporas.com, operated by the municipal subsidiary Spor A.Ş. The opening announcement for the men-only facility, promoted on social media by a woman, also drew attention. The promotional post highlighted the park's location next to Anadolu Harikalar Diyarı and Sukaypark, describing it as a new investment toward Kayseri's 2029 World Sports Capital vision.
