Wild Wadi, Dubai: Let's Have Some Fun!!

If you're looking to go out and have a good time and a lot of fun...look no further-- Wild Wadi is here! Part of the magnificent Jumeirah Beach Hotel complex in Dubai, Wild Wadi is a huge water theme park designed like an Arabian Oasis(wadi) and spread over 12 acres. Wild Wadi features 30 action packed rides and attractions, most linked to one another, allowing riders to move from one to the other without ever leaving the water. Water parks are becoming very popular in the Gulf, with one being built in Ras Al Khaimah and another in Bahrain.

Here are some of the rides you will find at Wild Wadi:

- Master Blaster. An "uphill" water roller coaster where you sit on an inflatable ring and get "blasted" uphill by high powered water jets,

- Flowriders. Wave generating machines that allow you to surf and bodyboard as if you were at a real beach. This same kind of attraction has become very popular at Mandalay Bay Resort in Las Vegas,

- Breakers Bay. This is a gigantic pool that produces waves in 5 different configurations. The waves are not as intense as those produced in Flowriders. Breakers Bay is for swimming, not surfing or bodyboarding,

- Flood River. Another ring ride where you are on an inflatable ring being propelled through a man made river by unannounced surges of water,

- Juha's Dhow. An interactive play structure featuring over 100 water games: racing slides, water guns, 5 downhill slides, a massive dumping bucket that pours water all over you, and lots more. Juha's Dhow was added to Wild Wadi in 2005 for one reason-- to make the park even more fun!

There are many, many other rides as well. Rides are not the only thing offered at Wild Wadi. The theme park contains a shopping area called Souq Al Wadi that offers all kinds of Arabian themed gifts. There are two fast food restaurants at Wild Wadi, Sinbad's Galley and Julshan's Kitchen. Both are quite popular.

Wild Wadi is a Mega Entertainment Project built for one reason-- to allow visitors to have FUN....and Wild Wadi has succeeded in doing this!
