This is a real paradise for lovers of water slides and entertainment, which everyone who comes to rest in the UAE wants to visit.

Huge resources have been spent to realize all the ambitious ideas of designers and architects. The area of this chic entertainment complex is about 17,000 square meters. m. Aquaventure Waterpark (“Atlantis” is not a completely correct name, which came from the name of the hotel) offers its visitors excellent opportunities for a varied and active holiday.

And in addition, each visitor will receive a lot of positive emotions, fireworks of emotions, lack of lines and excellent service.
Water park rides
The entire territory of the water park can be divided into several different zones, each of which has its own unique features. Let's take a closer look at the most interesting sights that Atlantis Waterpark (Dubai) offers to visit.
Ziggurat
Let's start with the most important and famous attraction of the water park - an attraction called Ziggurat. Built in Mesopotamian architectural style, a high (about 30 meters) massive tower is a real "temple of entertainment" that will impress everyone who decides to visit the Atlantis water park. This building stands out even among the many architectural styles and technologies collected in the cities of the Middle East and the United Arab Emirates. The Ziggurat tower complex consists of 3 levels, on which 7 unique water slides are located, which have no analogues. Four slides are built using Master Blaster technology, which involves the use of the most modern ideas and technologies in the field of water entertainment and outdoor activities. The attraction water slide can easily compete with such a popular roller coaster: ups and downs, sharp turns and thrills are guaranteed to all visitors.
Leap of Faith Water Slide
The most extreme slide in the water park is undoubtedly “Leap of Faith” (this is exactly what the name of the Leap of Faith attraction sounds in translation). This slide is extremely popular among both extreme visitors and amateurs to tickle their nerves with thrills and a bright burst of adrenaline in their blood. Aquaventure Water Park (Atlantis) invites visitors to this attraction to take only one step, but it will be a "step into the abyss." Daring to experience the unknown element, you will rush along an almost vertical descent, gaining decent speed from the start, and fly into a tunnel 60 meters long, which passes through a transparent aquarium populated by dangerous sharks. The main thing is not to close your eyes, otherwise the impressions of this flight will be incomplete. However, adrenaline from several seconds of almost free fall and sliding along a long tunnel will boil in the blood for a long time.
Shark attack
Shark Attack is another popular and unusual attraction that invites you to visit the Atlantis water park. Here visitors swim along a rather long transparent tube on an inflatable raft. At first glance - a harmless, perhaps even a little boring attraction ... But there is one small addition - the tunnel has transparent walls, and the entire body of water around is teeming with real sharks and other representatives of marine fauna! It seems that you only have to reach out and you can touch these dangerous predators, separated from you only by a wall of transparent, but very strong plastic. But even a constant reminder to yourself that predators can not do harm does not save from the release of adrenaline into the blood when one of the sharks with an open mouth swims a meter from the raft. This is not all that the Atlantis water park has to offer: tourist reviews advise you to go down to the foot of the Ziggurat tower, made in the form of a spacious room with transparent wide windows around the entire perimeter, through which you can watch sharks and people swimming through the tunnel "Attack of the sharks."
Shamal
The Shamal attraction is located in the Ziggurat tower, from the top of which you will find an extreme descent in a spiral-shaped closed pipe along a winding track, after which you will land in the intermediate pool, from where you can continue the trip along the even more interesting Plung slide.
Plung
After a short rest in the pool, the descent from the Ziggurat tower can be continued along the The Plunge hill - another exciting attraction with which the Atlantis water park abounds. This is a real rollercoaster in a water format - on an inflatable puck visitors will have to overcome extreme highs and dizzying falls that cause a sensation of breaking all the boundaries of attraction. A lot of emotions and a great mood are guaranteed!
Waterfalls
Falls ("Waterfalls") - another amazing attraction, which offers to visit the water park "Atlantis". A photo of Waterfalls is often found in reports of tourists visiting a water park. Do you want to plunge into the water element with your head? Then you should definitely visit this attraction, here an uncontrolled water stream throws the inflatable raft in different directions, throws it up above the bubbling river or draws it down into the abyss. From the point of view of safety, everything is thought out at the highest level - the raft will undoubtedly endure all these riots of the elements and ultimately cling to the calm shore of the main river of the water park, the measured course of which will allow you to calm your nerves and restore your heart rate, rethinking the moments you just experienced alloy.
Current
If you want to see the entire Aquaventure water park (Atlantis), then you should swim on a comfortable raft along the artificial river The Current, which flows through the territory of the water park, combining all its attractions. This trip will be calm and relaxing, during the descent along the Kurrent River you can soak up the caressing sunshine, chat with nearby floating neighbors or simply gather strength before the next conquest of the water attractions of the water park.
Children's area
In addition to adult entertainment, Aquaventure Waterpark also has an excellent Splashers Play Area, which is preferred by young families staying at the Atlantis Hotel (UAE). The water park is happy to open the doors for children from 1 year old (up to 7 years old - only accompanied by adults). Here, young visitors who, due to their age, cannot yet visit the swift and steep slides of the adult part of the water park, can splash around in pools, slide on various slides (from small gentle to rather steep spiral-shaped ones) or go to the area of fountains that spray water in all sides and delight the smallest visitors. Bright and colorful design, interesting and varied attractions, animators entertaining visitors - what else do children need for happiness?
With the same name, there is another water park. Atlantis (Marmaris) is a Turkish water park, which also has many interesting slides and positive reviews. But we will discuss it in another article.
