The Grand Opening of Atlantis, The Palm

Admission into the fabulous Aquaventure Waterpark at Atlantis, The Palm resort and hotel–located in Dubai, United Arab Emirates–is absolutely worth every penny.

As one of the most exciting water parks in the world, The Aquaventure Waterpark’s website describes how visitors can “experience adrenaline pumping water slides that catapult you through shark filled lagoons, scream through the planet’s largest slide, or race down the world’s first dual slide within a slide… fly high on the longest zip line circuit in the Middle East or just relax on our private beach surrounded by lush tropical landscapes.” The water park’s many features include the nine-story Tower of Neptune waterslide, which sends those brave enough spinning through a clear acrylic tube surrounded by sharks and rays; the always-changing Master Blaster Water Coasters; the Tower of Poseidon, which features record-breaking waterslides; the Atlantean Flyers zip line; a 1.6-kilometer Aquaventure tubing river adventure; the Splasher’s Children’s Play Area; and the 700-meter private beach.

The Atlantis, The Palm’s marine and waterpark also features The Lost Chambers Aquarium, swimming with dolphins at Dolphin Bay, playing with sea lions at Sea Lion Point, and a number of other Marine Animal Adventures–including a shark safari, cownose ray feeding, snorkeling and scuba diving in the Ambassador Lagoon, and behind the scenes tours. Guests staying at Atlantis, The Palm hotel and resort can access the Aquaventure Waterpark for free, outside visitors pay up to $70 for a single day pass, and combo tickets range from $65 to $80 per ticket.
