Yas Waterworld Waterpark in Abu Dhabi

One of the most ambitious buildings of the Abu Dhabi Water Park Yas Waterworld is located in the UAE. $ 245 million was allocated for its construction, so all the entertainment complexes here are considered the best in the country.

On 15 hectares of land is an exciting world of 40 water activities, of which 5 are so unique that you will not find analogues anywhere on the planet. The Yas WaterWorld waterpark is located on the outskirts of Abu Dhabi, near the Formula 1 highway, opposite Ferrari World Park.

Fun activities at the Abu Dhabi Water Park

At the entrance to the water park there is a divers' game village where, amid enthusiastic fun and waves, you can take part in an exciting search for jewelry in the interactive virtual game Pearlmasters. Guns, ship barrels, compasses, treasure chests and bags of coins were installed throughout the territory.

In the water park of Abu Dhabi, vacationers are happy to ride the waves in the pools. In a simple pool, you can even ride for children. In the second pond, the waves are small, created to imitate the surf and relaxation. But the third pool is suitable only for professional surfers, as the waves here reach 3 m in height.

The organizers of the Yas WaterWorld water park realized a great idea - so that children of different ages do not interfere with each other, the Tot's Playground and Yehal slides were divided. Older children have fun in Marah Fortress, where there are water cannons dousing little fidgets.

Reviews

Olga

They were afraid for the first time with children, in the end they were just thrilled! It turned out to be very profitable in price, as the tickets went for the action in two complexes - in the water park in Abu Dhabi Yas Waterworld and Ferrari World Park. We got on the bus, there goes No. 170, 178, 180 and 190, from the bus station the fare is only 4 dirhams. We advise you to take a towel, as you have to buy it there.

Those who do not often relax in such water parks will find all the entertainment superextreme. The slides are steep, ride on almost all the rides, and on the most liked more than once. They didn’t beat off anything when you move out, you don’t feel any seams at all. The presence of workers, who were always on duty and did not allow people to be injured accidentally, was calming. Also, Russian-speaking rescuers were pleased.

Victor

They spent a whole day with their family in the Abu Dhabi water park. It was a weekday in April, there were almost no queues, our children were satisfied with everything. The good cool rides of the Yas WaterWorld booklet were highlighted in red. The "Dead Loop" was simply breathtaking.

Throughout the day, animation worked for children with cartoon characters, there were a variety of contests, music and dancing. It's definitely impossible to get bored here! I liked that you can always contact in Russian and get an answer, since we speak English at a low level.

Tatyana

Never regretted that they chose this place on their holidays. Children managed to ride on all absolutely slides. Most of all I liked the relaxation in the large pool on the circles and the artificial wave. On the Lazy River, we advise you to roll after 16-00 into the heat, since there is always a shadow and water splashes, even a little froze with the child.

The lines were not very large. The slides were in the shade, all the stairs were covered with awnings, the legs did not burn, the head was not baked to anyone. True, we forgot to take towels with us, and we had to buy them at the entrance for 50 dirhams. Also, Abu Dhabi water park impressed with its gift shops with an interesting assortment of original items.
