Dubai Water Park – a springboard to fun

Dubai, the dazzling oasis in the desert, has not only made a name for itself as an international trade center and architectural wonderland, but also as home to some of the most spectacular water parks in the world. In this blog, we go on a diverse journey of discovery through Dubai’s water parks with their unique stories.

1. Atlantis Dubai Waterpark – Aquaventure: A paradise on Palm Jumeirah

Atlantis Aquaventure Waterpark, nestled on the iconic man-made island of Palm Jumeirah, is a true paradise for water lovers and adventure seekers. With a view of the majestic Atlantis Tower, this park not only offers a spectacular backdrop, but also a wide range of attractions. From turbulent slides such as the “Leap of Faith” to the relaxing lazy rivers (water channels), Aquaventure offers something for everyone. The innovative “Poseidon’s Revenge” slide in particular, which pulls the floor out from under your feet, promises an unforgettable experience.

For those looking for more than just water fun, Atlantis Aquaventure offers exclusive experiences such as dolphin encounters and snorkeling adventures among sharks. The architectural splendor of the resort and the outstanding design of the water park make a visit to the world’s largest water park a must.

If you haven’t had enough action yet, you can book an impressive ride in The Dubai Balloon at nightfall – the view over the palm tree is indescribably beautiful

• Admission price approx. 85 Euro
• Opening hours: 9.30 a.m. – 5.30 p.m.
• Tip: All consumption in the park can only be paid for via badge. You must first download the “Aquaband” app and top it up at Guest Services. It is possible to book a locker for approx. 15 euros. So if you are a hotel guest, why not come in your swimming trunks – that way you can save these expenses

2. Wild Wadi Water Park: A fairy tale from 1001 nights

The Wild Wadi Water Park, set against the backdrop of the luxurious Burj Al Arab, transports visitors to a world of 1001 nights. Inspired by the story of Juha, a classic hero of Arabic folklore, this park offers a fascinating mix of culture and adrenaline. The “Tantrum Alley” and the “Burj Surj” are just some of the rapid slides that intensify the thrill. The “Master Blasters”, on the other hand, the longest water coasters in the Middle East, defy gravity and soar up to 15 meters above the ground – a breathtaking experience from A to Z!

The Wild Wadi Waterpark is more than just fun in the water, it is also like a living museum of the Arabian storytelling tradition. Visitors can experience the rich culture of the region in this environment.

3. Legoland water park: fun and learning for the little ones

For young builders and Lego enthusiasts, the Legoland water park offers a perfect symbiosis of creativity and water fun. With attractions such as the “Build-A-Boat”, children can not only design their own Lego fleet, but also test their skills as water engineers. The “Duplo Splash Safari” offers an interactive environment in which the little ones can playfully explore the world of water.

Conclusion: The trip through the water parks of Dubai will definitely be remembered

The various water parks in Dubai offer an impressive range of experiences, from thrilling slides to relaxing river rides and interactive water games. No matter what we are looking for, whether exciting adventures or just relaxing in the water, the choice is wide and varied. Choosing the best water park is subjective and therefore a challenge. For families with small children, we recommend a visit to the “Splash ‘n’ Party” or the Legoland water park. Relatively high costs can be an obstacle for the other parks. The choice also depends on the time available. The Atlantis and Legoland water parks take up a whole day, while a few hours can be enough for the other three water parks. It is important to check the size restrictions for children in advance. Nothing should stand in the way of a variety of extraordinary experiences in the water park.
