More the 45 slides, rides and attractions of fun.
Abu Dhabi is stacked full of a diverse range of activities to tickle anyone’s fancy but one place that brings a smile to everyone’s face is Yas Waterworld.
Based on an Emirati legend, join Dana on her search for a legendary pearl over 45 rides, slides and attractions. It’s time for an adventure
Adrenaline Rush
Ready for goosebumps? Get on the highest rides, Jebel Drop and Hamlool’s Humps, for a thrilling experience. Although they are a long way up, it is definitely a quick flight down to the water.
Got a need for speed? Hop onto the waterpark ’s fastest ride and the first freefall drop waterslide in the region – the Liwa Loop. This ride is more than just a water slide and is sure to make your heart skip a beat as you drop straight down into a high-intensity looping slide.
For a group adventure, share the adrenaline rush with your friends on the world ’s largest six-person tornado water coaster – Dawwama.
Exciting Adventure
If you have a competitive side that needs to be sated then Sebag is where you need to be. Compete with your friends and slide head-on with all the boldness and technique you have got to land the winning spot in this six-lane racer slide.
And do not miss out on riding Bandit Bomber, the world ’s first rollercoaster to incorporate onboard water and laser special effects.
Moving and Grooving and Young Fun
For those with little aqua adventurers, check out the To t ’s P l a y g r o u n d. Mum and Dad can chill out while the little nippers enjoy a splash and paddle around the infant pool and slide down the slide complex.
At the Cannon Point, kids should beware of the Bandit Bomber riders as they whizz past overhead, spraying them with water. But fret not little ones as you will have the chance to return fire with water cannons.
For a beautiful ending, lie back, doze off and go down the winding streams of the lazy river and through the caverns of Al Raha River where you can completely switch off and float away into a pool of happiness.
Themed experiences
While the emphasis is clearly on fun with all the rides and attractions, it is important to remember the wonderful story and tribute to Emirati culture and heritage of pearl-diving that is at every turn and twist at the park.
Visitors can try out the one-of-a-kind Pearl Diving Experience at Yas Waterworld, which pays homage to the UAE’s pearl-diving heritage and gives guests the chance to plunge to the depths of an underwater tank in a quest to collect oysters that contain precious pearls.
The waterpark also mixes the traditional with the modern thanks to the UAE’s first-ever underwater VR experience where you can dive into the world of virtual reality while submerged in the water for an unprecedented immersive sensory experience.
