Where is the water park

The hotel impresses its guests with the scale of the design project, the luxury and magnificence of the interior design and impeccable service.

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

Enormous resources were spent to implement all the ambitious ideas of designers and architects. The area of this luxurious entertainment complex is about 17,000 square meters. m. AquaparkAquaventure ("Atlantis" - not quite the right name, which comes 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 sea of positive, fireworks of emotions, no queues 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 the Atlantis Water Park (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 the 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 megacities of the Middle East and the United Arab Emirates. The Ziggurat tower complex consists of 3 levels, on which there are 7 unique water slides that have no analogues. Four slides are built using Master Blaster technology, which involves the use of the mostmodern ideas and technologies in the field of water entertainment and outdoor activities. The water slides of the attraction can easily compete with such a popular roller coaster: ups and downs, sharp turns and thrills are guaranteed for all visitors.
Leap of Faith Waterslide
The most extreme slide in the water park is undoubtedly Leap of Faith. This slide is wildly popular with both extreme visitors and those who like to tickle their nerves with thrills and a bright burst of adrenaline in the blood. Aquaventure Water Park ("Atlantis") invites visitors to this attraction to take just one step, but it will be "a step into the abyss." Having dared to test the unknown elements, you will rush along an almost vertical descent, picking up a decent speed from the start, and fly out into a 60-meter long tunnel that passes through a transparent aquarium inhabited by dangerous sharks. The main thing is not to close your eyes, otherwise the impressions of this flight will be incomplete. However, the adrenaline from a few seconds of almost free fall and sliding through a long tunnel will seethe in the blood for a long time to come.
Shark Attack
Shark Attack is another popular and unusual attraction that invites you to visit the Atlantis water park. Here, visitors float through a rather long transparent tube on an inflatable raft. At first sight- 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 the marine fauna! One gets the impression that one has only to reach out and touch these dangerous predators, separated from you only by a wall of transparent, but very strong plastic. But even constantly reminding yourself that predators can't do harm doesn't save you from the adrenaline rush when one of the sharks, with its mouth open, swims a meter away from the raft. This is not all that the Atlantis water park has to offer here: tourists are advised 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 Shark Attack.
Shamal
The Shamal attraction is located in the "Ziggurat" tower, from the top of which you will experience an extreme descent in a spiral closed tube along a winding track, after which you will land in an intermediate pool, from where the journey can be continued along the even more interesting slide "Plung".
Plung
After a short rest in the pool, the descent from the Ziggurat tower can be continued along The Plunge, another exciting attraction that abounds in the Atlantis water park. This is a real roller coaster in a water format - on an inflatablepuck, visitors will have to overcome extreme ups and dizzying falls, which cause a feeling of breaking all the boundaries of attraction. A lot of emotions and a chic mood are guaranteed!
Waterfalls
Falls ("Waterfalls") is another amazing attraction that invites you to visit the Atlantis water park. Photo "Waterfalls" is often found in the reports of tourists who visited the water park. Would you like to plunge into the water element with your head? Then you should definitely visit this attraction, here an uncontrollable water stream throws an inflatable raft in different directions, throws it up over a raging river or pulls it down into the abyss. From the point of view of safety, everything here is thought out at the highest level - the raft will undoubtedly endure all these riots of the elements and eventually land on the calm bank of the main river of the water park, the measured flow of which will allow you to calm your nerves a little and restore your heart rhythm, rethinking the moments you have 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, uniting all its attractions. This trip will be calm and relaxing. While descending the Current River, you can soak up the caressing sunbeams, chat with nearby floating neighbors or just gather your strength before the next conquest of the water attractions of the water park.
Kids area
The Aquaventure water park, in addition to adult entertainment, also has an excellent children's Splashers Play Area, which is preferred by young families staying at the Atlantis Hotel (UAE). The water park is happy to open its 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 the pools, slide down various slides (from small gentle to rather steep spiral ones) or go to the area of fountains that splash water into all sides and delight the youngest visitors. Bright and colorful design, interesting and varied attractions, animators entertaining visitors - what else do children need to be happy?
There is another water park with the same name. "Atlantis" (Marmaris) is a Turkish water park, which also has many interesting slides and positive reviews. But it will be discussed in another article.
When you come to rest in the sunny UAE, be sure to visit the Atlantis water park to plunge into the abyss of water slides and entertainment, get your portion of blood-stirring adrenaline and recharge with positive emotions.
