Dreamland Aqua Park - Dubai

And yet again holidays go as easy as they come - we had a 6 day break for Eid (inclusive of weekend). As I mentioned in my previous post I had gone to Dubai to spend the holidays with my fiance. One of the fun things we did was go to the Aqua Park. The weather was just perfect - not too sunny and not too windy. The water was a little cold - it could have been temperature controlled (if it was then I don't think it worked too well). Once you're out of the water you're kinda freezing. 

Let me mention some of the rides there -

Wave Pool - A perfect way to laze around in the pool...

Dream Stream - You basically do nothing here - just float ...

Twister - I did not go on this one - you have to be a good swimmer which I am not! It throws you around a big bowl and then drops you into a small pool...

Family Raft Ride - The most amount of fun we had - not too scary (we went about 4-5 times)...

Pool Bar - It's a bar!!

Dead Sea - This was weird - tasted of salt and burned your eyes out..

Kamikaze - Can't remember which one this was as there were a couple of slides - amongst which I went on 2 of them (some of the slides were scary)...

Twisting Dragons - see Kamikaze...

Slide 5 - see Kamikaze

There is also a kiddies pool play area with 19 game options (fun water guns, showers,  water sea saw, a big bucket that splashes an insane amount of water if you stand beneath it etc)

There are many more attractions. For more information you can visit their website - http://www.dreamlanduae.com/. If you don't have proper swim wear you can buy it from a store at the park. It is preferable that you wear appropriate swimwear as you may not enjoy most of the rides/slides if you don't. Entry fees to the park is AED 135 - 35 extra for a lunch buffet (which was really good). Lower rates are applicable for seniors and children.
