Play to the full at the floating water athletic park until evening

About this spot

Takata Matsubara Water Park (高田松原ウォーターパーク) is a floating athletic course that appears at Takata Matsubara Beach (高田松原海水浴場) in Takata-cho, Rikuzentakata City, Iwate Prefecture. In 2026 it operates from Saturday 18 July to Sunday 16 August, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on a 50-minute rotation system. Floating bridges, trampolines, slides and other athletic equipment are linked together on the sea surface, and the appeal is playing with splashes of water while using your sense of balance. Play is based on wearing a life jacket, so the layout is easy for children who are not confident swimmers to try together with a guardian. On a beautiful shore that has come through disaster, it is the climax of a day for making bright summer family memories.

Tips

It is reassuring to check fees, facility details and the day's time slots on the official website before you set out. Prepare clothes that can get wet and a bag to keep removed clothes and valuables together. Allow enough time when entering so that you can leave by the 4 p.m. closing time.

Best time to visit

A slot from around noon lets you use the whole afternoon and enjoy it fully until closing at 4 p.m.
