Be thrilled by the exhilarating slides, cool down from the heat or relax with the family in the play areas of this enormous waterpark.

Yas Waterworld has some of the biggest pools, fastest waterslides and the largest amount of rides of any waterpark in the world. Opened in 2013, Yas Waterworld encompasses 15 hectares (37 acres) of Yas Island with an incredible 43 attractions.

Operated by the people behind the Ferrari World, the park was already billed as being at the top of its game before it opened and won a number of awards. Families will want to head to the Yas Waterworld where there are four, intensity-level categories so you can easily plan your day to accommodate your thrill-seeking needs. With so many rides to choose from, this is a great destination for families with children and for adults who are young at heart.

If you like fast and thrilling rides this where you will find some of the world’s most exciting slides. The Jebel Drop is the highest point in the park and has the most stunning views. Look quickly because the drop comes within an instant and you will be plummeting to the bottom in no time. On the Hamlool’s Humps, feel the exhilarating excitement of flying as you soar over three peaks. For those who are brave, ride on the Liwa Loop, one of the first looping waterslides in the world.

To catch your breath away from the attractions, rent a cabana and relax on your own, with your friends or loved ones. Each cabana hosts up to six people and features lounges, fans and personalised food service. Unwind by the pool with a bite to eat or a cool drink. Trained staff supervise the area, so you can feel at ease with the children by the water. Your young ones can also make friends in the nearby Marah Fortress where they can spray water and race down each of the six slides.

The Yas Waterpark is in the centre of Yas Island and is accessible by car or bus from central Abu Dhabi. Valet parking is offered for a fee. The park is open daily and you can purchase tickets in person or online.
