About Acquamotion
Acquamotion is Gramado’s indoor water park, from the same group as Snowland. The idea is to use the hot water from the Serra Gaúcha’s underground: the pools are fed with thermal water from the Aquífero Guaraní, kept around 36 °C, inside a closed, climate-controlled environment. That’s why the park operates even on cold and rainy days when it’s chilly outside.
The building covers about 49 thousand square meters over several floors, decorated with the theme of the four seasons of the year, each with its own set. There are roughly seven pools. Inside are the wave pool, a pool with massage jets, a swim-up bar, a grotto with a waterfall and the water slides. Outside, three outdoor pools also have hot water, one of them with an infinity edge facing the mountain scenery.
Children have two dedicated areas with shallow water, spray features, small slides and a giant dumping bucket, supervised by attendants and characters. The two larger slides are for older children and adults, according to the height requirements posted on each.
The park operates with a wristband: it opens the locker and is used to pay for purchases inside. The concept mixes fun and relaxation, and many adults spend their time in the calmer pools and the outdoor area.

Best time
Open year-round and is one of Gramado’s options for rainy and cold days, especially from June to August, when the Serra Gaúcha usually has low temperatures. The outdoor pools are more pleasant on sunny days. July, the Natal Luz season and holidays are the busiest periods: buy tickets in advance. Check the day’s opening hours before you go.

Tip
Bring a towel and flip‑flops: towels are only sold at the park. Lockers are paid separately. Buy tickets in advance on the website, as capacity is limited on busy days. On cold days, take warm clothes for after your visit. Snowland is on the same route and the two can be combined on the same day.
