Among the world's best waterparks, Wild Wadi is an aquatic Arabian adventure located beside the famous Burj Al Arab hotel. Themed around the folklore character, Juha, this fun destination offers many pulsating rides, slides and activities – here are four you cannot miss.
Rebuilt in 2018 to up the ante, this ride is terrifying, exhilarating – and a must-try for waterpark fans. After a nervous 32m-high climb, the Sceirah plunges two riders through trapdoors into two separate tubes for a full 120m descent, at speeds of up to 80km/h!
Do your besties fancy a shared thrill? If so, Tantrum Alley is a Wild Wadi go-to! Strap into a tube raft for four people, and prepare to hurtle down waterslides and into tornadoes. The storms spin the tube around, before sending it splashing out.
Sign up for a Master Blaster and take on water jets that propel your tube uphill and through sharp turns and slides. It's a fierce aqua roller coaster ride, with several blasters to choose from – namely, the Flying Falls, Wadi Leap, Falcon Fury and Thunder Rapids.
Nothing beats a lazy river ride after a day of thrills and spills. Lay back on a float, soak up the sun, admire the surrounding sights and enjoy the languid waves as they send you gently downstream on this family-friendly experience.
