Description
Wild Wadi Water Park was one of the first large scale entertainment parks to be developed in Dubai, back in 1998 - hence its very central location in the Jumeirah district. There over 15 water slides, a lazy river, a wave pool and two artificial surfing installations.
Access & Transport
It is very easy to get to and location is quite central, next to the Burj Al Arab hotel, Souk Medinat Jumeirah and the Jumeirah public beach. The best way to get there is by taxi. Alternatively, the Mall of the Emirates metro station is about 2.5km away and there are some buses plying the route.
Instructions & Recommendations
The main advice is to bring your swimming attire, some sunblock, hat/cap and sunglasses. We'd recommend coupling this activity with one or more others in the Jumeirah area.
Environmental & Social
The Park requires quite a lot of energy and water to run but it has some comprehensive sustainability policies and practice to mitigate the impact - details can be found there: https://www.jumeirah.com/en/article/wild-wadi/wild-wadi-and-sustaining-the-environment Neutral from a social perspective.
Conclusion
The water park is a great option for families, with a mix of adrenaline inducing rides and a lot of kid friendly options - although do note that age / size is a limiting factor for most rides (as it should). Probably could do with some renovation, better capacity management and lower prices too.
Key positive
Family friendly
Central location
Key negative

Suitability
This is best suited for families looking for kids / teens-friendly activities. Not recommended for visitors with reduced mobility as they would not be able to enjoy the slides or surfing installation
