Cables Wake Park & Aqua Park - Penrith, New South Wales

Aqua Park is a fun place for a day out, especially for families and kids who enjoy water activities. The staff were friendly and the overall setup was decent. However, a few things could definitely be improved.

The shower rooms really need clothes hangers—there’s nowhere to hang your dry clothes or towel, which makes it inconvenient. Also, the 5-minute time limit for showering after activities is far too short, especially for families with kids. Extending this to 20–30 minutes would make the experience much more relaxed and enjoyable.

Lastly, some of the inflatables were noticeably low on air, making them less safe and harder to play on. Regular checks and refills would help maintain both safety and fun.

Overall, it’s a good place but with a few adjustments, it could be great.

Had a great time where the kids learned to wake board - the area that’ll at they do the lessons is in great for first timers. Excellent instructors and the kids picked it up immediately

An absolutely fantastic place! Definitely worth a visit. The activities are ridiculously fun, and the staff? Super nice. Like, really nice. Not that fake, forced politeness - you can actually tell they don’t hate their jobs.

Now, the Aqua Park - you HAVE to try it. It’s pure, splash-filled fun! You really have to give it a go!

A small recommendation: I think the floating obstacle course should be split by age. There were full-grown adults throwing themselves around, which is great for them, truly, and they should be having fun too, but not so great for my youngest, who had to leave early. It’s totally fair that everyone wants to have fun, but maybe a designated under-13 section would help balance things out.

My only tiny complaint? The toilets. I had to ask a stranger for toilet paper, which, hey, is one way to make new friends!

Overall, a great day out, and I’d absolutely go again.

Awesome venue. Helpful staff and top notch equipment made this a very fun birthday for my son. We've now celebrated he's 10th and 11th birthday here. Doesn't get much better than this.

Great place for the kids. They did two sessions and loved it.

Great large water obstacle course for kids, teens and adults. Attended quite a few birthday parties over the years and kids have always loved it. Excellent safety instructions given. Life jackets provided with a good selection of sizes. Great presence of lifeguards in the water.

This review is for the Aqua Park. It's great fun but it's a free-for-all. It was crazy busy. I watched little kids being pushed aside. There needs to be some separation at busy times. Not suitable for kids' parties, as there is no direct supervision. The life guards are young and inexperienced and wouldn't know what a child in distress looks like. If you go with kids under 10, you'll have fun if you go in together. Don't leave them to the care of the "lifeguards". Even with a life jacket, it is easy to get stuck under the inflatables if you fall in. Great for teens though!

This is fun 🤩 great cable waterski facility.
We had an excellent day with waterskiing first and a run around the waterpark after.
This is park is open year round, and we recommend to bring a wetsuit. If you don’t have one you can hire a wetsuit $20,-
There is a kiosk for coffee, Thea and softdrinks they also sell snacks chips/pies etc and a few health options.
