Familiy Activities

The Isle of Man has lots of different activities for families of all shapes and sizes. If you’re visiting with tiny tots, adventurous teens or anything in between, you’ll be sure to find something to keep everybody happy. 

The mild climate and natural beauty of the Isle of Man will bring out the whole family’s inner explorer with no shortage of parks and outdoor spots to enjoy. 

Mooragh Park, Onchan Pleasure Park, and Silverdale are popular with visitors and residents alike. With children’s playgrounds, boating lakes, BMX tracks and crazy golf, each location has something special to discover. 

Or if a country ramble and a picnic is what you’re looking for, the Island boasts 18 mountain and coastal glens which are maintained in a semi-natural state and provide a stunning backdrop to your day out. 

The Isle of Man also has plenty of sandy beaches that are perfect for an old fashioned family trip to the seaside to test your sandcastle making skills. 

If your family loves wildlife, there is lots to be found on the Island. Curragh’s Wildlife Park has many animals to spot or, for something different, the Home of Rest for Old Horses has over 60 horses, ponies, and donkeys that love visitors. Or perhaps you’d like to meet Boer and Angora goats at Kiddin’ Chaos? 

For a family that loves adventure, the Isle of Man won’t disappoint. There are many high-quality adventure experiences for people of all ages. So, if you fancy a spot of kayaking, abseiling or a game of laser quest, you’ll find it here. 

There’s still endless entertainment to be had on a rainy day. An indoor swimming centre, tenpin bowling, and a Victorian Steam Railway will stop you from worrying about the weather and ensure your family has a trip to remember.
