When choosing a holiday destination, safety is a key concern for many travellers. People want to feel secure and confident in the activities and facilities offered, especially when it comes to their families.

 This is why businesses in the travel and tourism industry work hard to make every holiday as safe as possible, with special attention to areas designed for children. Achieving this takes careful planning, strong safety measures, and following strict international guidelines.

As water parks become more popular, The Fun Lab (experts in water park safety, with the support of TUI (one of the world’s leading tourism groups) have created a helpful guide called “Safety in Water Leisure Areas of Tourist Establishments.” This guide is designed to help manage water parks and pools more safely.

The guide reviews international safety standards and addresses the challenges of managing water facilities. It offers practical advice and solutions to prevent accidents and keep everyone safe.

Why this guide is important:

• There may be a lack of understanding about safety rules, especially in new projects.
• Tourists, particularly families with children, are asking for higher safety standards.
• Clear rules and regular safety checks are needed in these areas.
• Knowing the standards for certified water facilities is essential for safety and legal compliance.
• It helps managers of tourist resorts ensure their suppliers and installers meet safety standards.
• Proper management and maintenance are crucial for ensuring safe facilities.

This guide supports those working in the tourism industry to create safer environments for all.
