Cine6D - 6D Cinema in Corralejo

Jeez Sam, what the hell is 6D. I have only just used to 3D

Jeez Sam, what the hell is 6D. I have only just used to 3D 

If the technology changes faster than us, we are officially old. Welcome aboard, Ron.

From what I understood the 4D movies are having extra movement of the user (chairs), 5D adding the smell/sense like water droplets. I honestly have no idea what is the sixth "dimension" here. I guess it's only marketing term to attract more customers.

BTW: There are already 9D, 11D and even 12D cinemas.

Well that’s it then !!! I officially give up

We have planned to go this week so I'll report back afterwards. They do a really good car valet in the car park under Las Palmeras shopping centre and a good breakfast at one of the eateries, so that will be our morning taken care of! Only Q is, breakfast before or after the 6D?

Looking forward to your report, Tamara.

Regarding the breakfast: How good the breakfast actually is - worth to go back and order again just one hour later?

Haha - I was actually considering whether it would be safe to eat before the 6D as my tummy doesn't do motion too well!
Had to change plans slightly and will now be heading down to La Luna in the Bristol area for lunch instead (their breakfasts are very good) while my car is valeted.
Still hoping to do the 6D later in the week.

What a great half an hour! Well worth the Money in my opinion. We paid 15€ each for a package of 3 films - I chose the gentler/calmer films as I wasn't too sure about the motion side of it - I don't do fairground rides and especially not roller coasters! Still needed to wear seat belts and the seats did tilt around a fair amount, but smoothly.

The lady who is running it, Cynthia, spoke really good English, and was very helpful in helping us to chose the best films for us. We went for the helicopter ride over Fuerteventura, underwater in this area of the Atlantic ocean and finally a short, fun dinosaur one. My friend mentioned to Cynthia that she would bring her grandson next time he visited and she gave her a complimentary child's ticket.

We were the only ones there so went straight in. It seats up to 9 people at a time but you would all need to agree on the films obviously.

We wore special glasses for the second 2 films, not needed for the helicopter one. As part of the special effects the AC was quite cold and strong at times - I could have done with a sweatshirt on but then I would have missed some of the effects!

I would certainly go back again - quite happily watch 2 screenings of the helicopter ride! Great thing to do with children when you need something other than the beach.

Cynthia said that they hadn't been very busy since their launch in April - I think a lot of this is due to their being on the top floor of Las Palmeras and not getting passing trade. So, if you need somewhere to park in Corralejo, want your car valeted, need to shop in Spar Padilla, or visit the other shops and cafes, and enjoy this different entertainment, Las Palmeras is a one stop for you. There is also an exhibition of animals etc made from recycled tyres - amazing things!

Sounds a bit like the rides you sometimes see at funfares etc. You get in a pod thing & it moves around with the effects etc. Thanks Tamara, never heard of 6D no idea what it was about

Thank you for the review.  I think we will partake in it next time around.

Whatever the technology it's got to be worth it just for the aerial views of Fuerte. My OH went in a small aircraft around the coast of the island (for real, not 6D!) which must have been amazing but I couldn't pluck up the courage - the Cine6D suited me just fine

Sounds like the virtual reality pods on hydraulic legs which I used to take my nieces to at the Trocadero in London about 25 years ago! Great fun, very convincing motion feelings.

Yeah, that’s what I thought bedouin
