What to Expect

Rides & Slides

Isn't rides and slides what waterparks are all about? But wait, there's something that sets this waterpark apart from typical ones. There are up to 20 waterslides to choose from. Some can be done in pairs allowing you to accompany your kid on the ride whereas others the kid rides solo. Some of these include:

Build-a-raft: It's found at the lazy river and a winner for families. It's packed with many ride combinations for kids to try out on their own. Some of the double boats here feature double seats to allow small kids hop in.

Joker Soaker: Feel like cooling down, this is a must try! This is the kind where a bucket is filled to the brim with water and smashes you with it. Like isn't that so cool on a really hot day? I think so. And by the way, the water here is colder than anywhere else. For small kids over 91cm, they're well allowed to ride slides found in the lower level of this ride independently. To ride in upper levels, you'll need to be over 102 cm

Duplo Splash Safari: The shallow, warm water pool is designed for toddlers. It features four small slides and a large Duplo animals with water features. There are also water fountains for the young guests to enjoy.

Lego Racers: How about a competition against another family member on this ride? It features six parallel racing slides that speed you down on mats.

The Wave Pool: The large pool area is a mix of many rides including two tube rides, one-twin tube ride and single rides. The steepest ride is wave rider and slides you 73 metres down and straight into the water.

Red Rush: To experience the full thrill of this ride, at least have a group of three. The gigantic 95 meter long slide in a round raft takes you on a thrilling spin as you hold tight onto its edges. The spin is actually the thrill element because you don't even get to know where you're going. You find yourself there. Totally fun!

Helpful Tips

Arrive early. With the temperatures heating up, you'll be lucky to get a spot in the public car park which has undercover parking. However, it's only enough to accommodate at least the first thousand or so cars of the day. If you miss it, well, you'll have no option but to park in the heat. The VIP and Valet areas attract an extra fee.

The weekends are busy. Consider checking out local school holiday times and remember, Friday/Saturday mark the weekends in UAE. Weekdays are much quieter and especially in the morning where you can literally have the park for yourselves.

You could rent a cabana for a group. There are only a few in the park and unfortunately can't be booked in advance so if you get there first, you'll be lucky to have your cabana. The cabanas are wonderfully shaded spots with fridge and extra service.

If you think your kids will nag you for a souvenir water drinking bottle, consider getting it at the start of the day before things heat up!

Consider taking your shoes around the park with you. Although some services are heat treated, others are not. Even late in the afternoon, everything might feel like it's burning. Note, there are shoe racks near all rides so have something distinguishing your pair from the rest.

Bring towels with you, but if you happen to forget, you can rent or buy one.
