Why I love it

This is one of those places that people assume is going to be ridiculously expensive — but if you do it right, it doesn’t have to be. It’s genuinely one of the best waterparks in the world and actually such a fun full day in Dubai.

Vibe

Big, fun, chaotic in a good way. Slides, lazy rivers, beach access — proper holiday vibe.

What to expect

Loads of rides and slides for all levels (from chill to full adrenaline), a massive lazy river, private beach access, and plenty of food spots dotted around so you can easily spend the whole day there.

It works just as well for adults as it does for families — it’s not just for kids.

Best time to go

Go early so you can make the most of the day and beat the queues. Weekdays are always quieter than weekends.
