The Wild Wadi Water Park is situated in Jumeirah, an area in Dubai, United Arab Emirates next to the Burj Al Arab and the Jumeirah Beach Hotel. The water park is operated by Jumeirah International, a Dubai-based hotelier.
Wild Wadi is an outdoor water park with a heated/cooled wave pool, multiple water slides and two artificial surfing machines. In addition, the park has the largest water slide outside of North America. Another feature of the park is an 18 m (59 ft) waterfall that goes off every ten minutes. The water park also has two gift shops, three restaurants and two snack stands.
It was featured in The Amazing Race 5 and The Amazing Race Asia 1, in which teams had to slide down a 21 m (69 ft) drop. There are more than 40,000 plants, 80 km of rope and 800 cubic metres of timber in Wild Wadi. There are 150 sets of pumping equipment, 24 mechanical rooms - all completely hidden from view - and no less than 7.5 km of buried pipe work at Wild Wadi.
Seen one mall, seen them all? Wild Wadi's Souq Al Wadi promises a different experience. To begin with it doesn't look like a shop at all. Built to resemble a cave and packed with all kinds of cool stuff, you'll soon know what Ali Baba felt like when he said 'Open Sesame'.Resorts Travel Map gets you driving directions and maps.
