Yas Waterworld Abu Dhabi Unveils Major Expansion with Over 20 New Rides and Attractions - Get updated on what's happening in tourism!

Developed by Miral, the expansion spans more than 13,000 square metres and marks a significant milestone in the park’s growth, introducing over 20 new rides, slides, and water-based experiences alongside an all-new dining venue.

Themed around a mystical "Lost City," the expansion continues the waterpark’s original narrative, The Legend of the Lost Pearl, and brings Yas Waterworld’s total offering to over 60 attractions – the most of any waterpark in the region.

Among the new highlights is Al Falaj Race, the Middle East’s first side-by-side dueling tube raft ride, offering high-speed drops and head-to-head thrills. Other standout additions include Al Sahel Junior, the region’s first mini zero-gravity boomerango slide, and Bahamut’s Rage, a high-thrill log flume water ride designed for adrenaline seekers.

Dr. Mohamed Abdalla Al Zaabi, Group CEO of Miral, commented:

“The expansion of Yas Waterworld Yas Island, Abu Dhabi represents another bold step in our mission to deliver exceptional, world-leading and joyful experiences on Yas Island. These new rides not only transform water-based entertainment in the region but also reflect our ongoing commitment to creating innovative destinations that captivate visitors of all ages. As we continue to contribute to Abu Dhabi's tourism growth and economic diversification, we're proud to offer yet another reason for families and thrill-seekers to explore everything Yas Island has to offer.”

Designed to cater to guests of all ages, the expansion features family-friendly attractions like Al Mafras, a gently twisting slide for children, and Red Dunes, a fast-paced aqua tube slide. Young adventurers can enjoy Dawwama Junior, a kid-sized version of the park’s iconic tornado slide, while interactive zones such as Bandit’s Playground in the new Bandit’s Village provide splash-filled fun for the whole family.

Guests can also explore Mataha Madness, a labyrinth of slides and surprises, or take on the spinning excitement of Sadaf Swirl. With these new additions, Yas Waterworld cements its status as the region’s leading aquatic adventure destination.
