Best Things to Do at Yas Waterworld Abu Dhabi
Yas Waterworld Abu Dhabi is the perfect destination for you all year since you can enjoy these fun activities here:
Experience exciting water coaster rides.
Yas Waterworld Abu Dhabi boasts the largest six-person tornado water coaster in the world – Dawwama.
It is also the only six-person hydro magnetic ride in the world, the first of its kind.
This water coaster ride involves riding a round tube that drops into a 20-meter-long tornado funnel. This ride reaches high speeds and comes with plenty of shakes and bumps, giving you a truly exciting experience.
If you still have an adrenaline rush after going on Dawwama, your next ride should be Falcons Falaj, a high-speed, six-seater water raft ride that takes you through an exciting water course.
You won’t be able to hold your scream as this ride navigates swift rapids and sudden drops, twists and turns.
Go on adrenaline-pumping water slides.
If you’re up for a thrilling ride, head to Liwa Loop, the region’s first freefall drop water slide.
Step into the capsule and wait for the floor to disappear. You won’t get any warning, so be on your toes.
Once the floor disappears, you’ll drop straight into a high-intensity looping waterslide that will give you a truly exhilarating ride. The slide ends at a pool, so be prepared for a big splashdown.
Yas Waterworld Abu Dhabi is also home to the tallest vertical drop water slide in the city – Jebel Drop. It is a 10-story tall slide that gives you incredible views of the park.
Hamlool’s Humps is another waterslide that you shouldn’t miss. It features two massive humps and several crazy twists and turns that will get your heart pounding when you hit them.
Slithers Slides and Sebag are two more rides that let you race and have fun with other guests as you go down exciting slides.
Ride the Middle East’s longest suspended roller coaster.
The Bandit Bomber is one of the most exciting and fun rides in Yas Waterworld Abu Dhabi.

While on the ride, you’ll have amazing views of Yas Island’s other popular attractions which you can access with the multiple theme park offers, a great way to save if you plan to visit the other four parks.
The Bandit Bomber is also an interactive ride that lets you and your fellow riders join water fights with guests on the ground below. Use the water gun on your seat to shoot enough water to fully drench your target.
