1 of 5

Wild Wadi Waterpark (Dubai)

We’ll start off with the UAE’s first waterpark as it’s still one of the most cherished family destinations in the Emirates. Situated next to Burj Al Arab, in Dubai, it’s a great venue for anyone hoping to surf the lazy stream. One of its most cherished rides had always been the Jumeirah Sceirah, which has since been upgraded to offer twice the fun. Furthermore, Wild Wadi is also a part of Jumeirah International, the owners of Burj Al Arab, hence hotel guests will also have unlimited access to this waterpark.

2 of 5

Aquaventure Waterpark (Dubai)

Aquaventure is the largest waterpark situated in Dubai, but perhaps also the world’s largest. It’s a great destination for the family as it promises a record-breaking 105 water slides to ride on. It’s not just all about water rides, however, as Aquaventure also has a beach, a kids’ area, and restaurants and kiosks for delicious cuisines. Being part of Atlantis Dubai, visitors and hotel guests can expect special offers, in addition to signing up for a free birthday access online.

3 of 5

Jungle Bay (Dubai)

Jungle Bay is one of the newest waterparks in Dubai, and a great getaway for the family. This venue is famous for its rides such as its multiple slides, Splash Zones, and wave pools. Being at a smaller scale than any of the city’s other waterparks means that visitors will be able to try out all of Jungle Bay’s attractions in under a short period of time, while also feeling like they’re on vacation in Greece.

Yas Waterworld (Abu Dhabi)

Switching to UAE’s capital, Abu Dhahi, Yas Wonderworld is considered to be the Emirates’ first mega waterpark. This waterpark is famous for its many attractions such as the slides, Water Wars, and Cinesplash, which is a 5D experience that blends cinema with realism. Yas Waterworld is also allowing visitors to pay for tickets online with the option of staying as a hotel guest, but choosing the annual pass also comes with quick pass access and discounts.

5 of 5

Pearls Kingdom (Sharjah)

Pearls Kingdom is one of the best waterways in Sharjah full of adventures and fun times for the family. In fact, it even has a story following a wise king, two brothers, and their pursuit of the “Pearl of Knowledge.” The waterpark itself has several attractions to choose from such as the Forgotten Valley, Pirates Coast, the Flying Carpet, and more. There are also attractions specifically made for the kids, in addition to shows, events, and food carts and outlets for nourishment. Visitors can also book online with an option available for schools and corporate groups.
