Located at the foot of the Burj Al Arab, Wild Wadi Waterpark offers more than 30 Arabian-themed attractions for all ages: thrilling slides, a rapid river ride, and dedicated water play areas for younger children. A beloved family classic in Jumeirah.
Set at the foot of the Burj Al Arab, in Jumeirah, Wild Wadi is one of Dubai's best-known water parks. Its Arabian-inspired setting and more than 30 attractions make it a safe bet for a day with family or friends.
The park is renowned for its high-speed slides, including the famous Jumeirah Sceirah, as well as its rapid river and waves. Each attraction has its own height and age conditions, checked at the entrance: if you come with teenagers, check together what is accessible before queuing.
Young children have suitable water play areas, with shallow depths and small slides. Children under 2 enter free. Plan a shaded spot and regular breaks: sun and water tire quickly.
The park is most pleasant from November to April, when temperatures are mild. On weekdays and at opening time, queues are generally shorter. In summer, the heat is strong: arrive early, drink plenty and protect yourself from the sun.
Can a 4-year-old enjoy the park?
Yes, thanks to the water play areas for the youngest. Our child rate applies from 3 to 5 years, and the adult rate from 6 years. The fastest slides, however, are reserved for older children.
How long should we spend there?
Half a day is enough to try the main attractions, but many families stay the whole day to alternate swimming and relaxing.
What can we do nearby after the park?
The Burj Al Arab and Jumeirah beach are a stone's throw away, ideal for photos at the end of the day. To compare with other parks, read our comparison of Dubai's water parks.
