Because if the kids are happy, you might actually get to finish a coffee while it’s hot.

Forget the cliché “Rhodes is great for families” line—Faliraki is where the real action is if you’ve got little ones, big ones, or sugar-fuelled in-betweens. It’s fun, safe, full of kid-friendly activities, and (here’s the kicker) many of them are actually enjoyable for adults too.

So whether you’ve got a toddler who wants to bounce, a 9-year-old who thinks they’re a ninja warrior, or a teenager who needs more than Wi-Fi to survive—Faliraki delivers.

Here’s the ultimate, no-nonsense list of things to do in Faliraki with kids—straight from the locals who know what actually exists and what actually keeps kids entertained.

Let’s start with the obvious because it’s absolutely brilliant.
It’s the biggest water park in Greece, packed with:

• Kid zones
• Giant slides for thrill-seekers
• Lazy rivers
• Snack bars
• And loads of shady spots for heat-weary parents

Perfect for: Toddlers, big kids, teens, parents who want to sit still for 20 mins
Top tip: Arrive early, bring water shoes, and bribe them out with ice cream.

On the main beach in summer, you’ll spot a giant inflatable obstacle course in the sea—basically a bouncy castle-meets-ninja course floating in the water.

Expect:

• Splashing
• Screaming
• Slipping
• And absolutely zero desire to leave once they’re on it

Age range: Best for confident swimmers 6+
Parent perk: Sunbed and frappe nearby.

This place is Faliraki’s entertainment jackpot for kids of all ages.
Inside? Oh, just:

• Bowling
• Roller skating
• Trampolines
• Soft play
• Mini golf
• Ninja warrior course
• And indoor air-con bliss

You could honestly spend half a day here—rain or shine.

🎟️ Great for: Mixed-age families, rainy days, post-beach energy dumps

In the centre close to the top of Ermou Street (Bar Street), designed like a little jungle adventure.

Fun, simple, and open till late.

Bonus: There’s a bar for grown-ups!

Great for: Pre-dinner entertainment and friendly family rivalry.

This place might just be your favourite find on the island.
It’s a soft play and trampoline centre—but here’s the magic:
They have staff who supervise the kids, so you can go and have a coffee, eat in peace, or just breathe for a second without someone climbing on you.

👶 Best for: Toddlers to young kids (ages 2–8ish)
☕ Bonus: Peace. Glorious peace.

Tucked opposite Sky Park Bowling, there’s a small aquarium that’s ideal for younger children or a shady afternoon break.

You’ll find:

• Local sea life
• A few reptiles
• Turtles
• And that wide-eyed wonder you only get when a kid sees a starfish for the first time

🦎 It’s not SeaWorld, but it’s sweet, educational, and a great mini excursion.

Faliraki’s beaches are:

• Shallow and calm
• Sandy (no pebbles-of-death here)
• Lined with family-friendly tavernas
• Home to pedalos, banana boats, jet skis and fun beach toys galore

Bonus: plenty of sunbed space for tired parents.

No pirate ships here, but plenty of amazing real boat trips suitable for families!

Options include:

• Short coastal cruises (1–2 hours)
• Swim stops at Ladiko or Anthony Quinn Bay
• Glass-bottom boats
• Chill BBQ cruises with music and snacks
• Private hires for a family-only adventure
• Family friendly Fishing Trips where you even get to eat your catch!

👶 Many are suitable for toddlers with shaded areas on board.

Send them on a mission to find the best ice-cream, bougatsa, spanakopita, or Greek doughnut in town. Local bakeries in Faliraki are kid heaven, and the sugar crash buys you at least 20 minutes of peace.
