The most unique Hungarian beach to open soon
According to Termál Online, a Hungarian news outlet focused on news concerning Hungarian beaches, thermal baths, and spas, the predecessor of the beach opened in 1932 and became very popular in no time. However, by the 2000s, its complex renewal and upgrade were due. The reconstruction works started in 2018 and finished on 20 June 2020. Finally, the project was more than just a simple renewal; a brand-new beach was born with unique architectural solutions, which won multiple awards.

The number of visitors broke a record last year: the Aquaticum welcomed more than 217 thousand guests. The beach operates between May and September, depending on the weather. In 2025, it will open its gates for visitors on 23 May, one week earlier than last year.
Multiple pools await all age groups with unforgettable experiences
The facility’s area comprises more than 8.5 hectares with 5,700 sqm of water surface and 15 pools. The Aquaticum offers various program opportunities and adventures for all age groups.

The smallest ones are welcome in three thematic kids’ pools, but there are wave, adventure, sport, relax, and spa pools. Visitors who aim to spend their holiday actively can try several sports grounds in the facility or participate in special programs like the night of pools.
Debrecen is a 2.5-3 hour drive from Budapest on public roads or motorways M3 or M4. By train, you may get to the Eastern Hungarian city, hosting a grand BMW investment and one of the best Hungarian universities, in 2.5 hours.

Hajdúszoboszló Spa will open next week
Another famous holiday place in the region is the Hungarian “spa capital”, Hajdúszoboszló, where the beach will open next week, on 1 May. On the opening day, the spa will welcome guests with free concerts. The opening of the pools will be gradual, depending on the weather. From the end of May, more and more beach services will become available, while from 14 June, the Aquapark will also open. The Premium Zone will be ready to welcome visitors from 18 June.

In Hajdúszoboszló, the Aqua-Palace waterpark is open throughout the entire year where all age groups can find their entertainment.
The Hajdúszoboszló spa will celebrate its centenary in 2027, and promises to renew its entire traditional segment by then.
