Yas Water World Theme

The theme for the water park is based on an old Emirati legend about a girl named Dana. Dana was a brave girl who went on a quest to retrieve a pearl that was lost in a huge storm and thus bring fortune back to her village. During her voyage, she was helped and guided by animals such as a camel, falcon and a dolphin. A couple of bandits followed her in quest to steal the pearl from her. The story ended as her tears of innocence fell in an oasis producing a majestic pearl that towered over the village.

This story is incorporated in the park’s theme, design and architecture and a pearl can be seen from outside the park. The characters in the park, shops and restaurants are based on the story as well.
