The second largest and most loved water park in Dubai, Aquaventure WaterWorld, belongs to the Atlantis Hotel on the Palm Jumeirah in Dubai. This water park itself is an attraction with a special atmosphere of a water adventure: there is something to ride, what to see and what to be delighted with.
In the water park, you can test your courage next to live sharks, fly into the pool at the speed of a car, overcome water obstacles and rapids, enjoy double slides.
The water park offers many water adventures for the whole family. Everyone can use the water park. A ticket to the water park at the box office of the water park – 320AED for adults, 275 AED – for children below 120cm Dream Land Water Park is located outside Dubai. We even thought about whether to include it in the rating of Dubai attractions, because the water park was built on the territory of the emirate of Umm Al Quwain.
Dream Land is really the best water park for families with kids and is loved by everyone who is vacationing in Dubai with children. This is a huge water park with water adventures, a green shady recreation area, a children’s amusement park, and a magical mini zoo.
Each animal in the mini-zoo “Mini Pet Land” can be picked up and photographed. The entrance fee to the water park is 160AED for adults, 100AED – for children, kids under 2 years old are free.
