Miral Experiences, Abu Dhabi has unveiled brand new water-filled adventures for its expanded waterpark, Yas Waterworld Yas Island, Abu Dhabi.

The new offerings include a “Lost City” theme, a continuation of the park’s original story ‘The Legend of the Lost Pearl,’ along with 20 new rides, slides, experiences and dining. With the expansion, Yas Waterworld will be home to more than 60 attractions offering more aquatic adventures than ever before.

A recent global survey, “What Kids Really Want on a Dream Holiday,” conducted by the Department of Culture and Tourism – Abu Dhabi, revealed that 96 percent of Indian children said they want to spend a day at a water park or enjoy water sports during their holiday. The park’s expansion taps into a growing travel trend among Indian families. With Yas Waterworld’s exciting new offerings, the destination stands out as a perfect fit for Indian travelers seeking fun, active, and culturally rich holiday experiences.

Dr. Mohamed Abdalla Al Zaabi, Group CEO, Miral, said in a statement, “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.”

He added, “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, further positioning it as a top global destination for entertainment and leisure.”

Family adventures include Al Mafras, a twisting, desert slide for kids, Red Dunes, a twisting, closed aqua tube slide and Al Falaj Race, a dueling tube raft race with high-speed drops and sharp turns. Al Sahel Junior features the region’s first mini zero-gravity boomerang and Dawwama Junior is a scaled-down version of the park’s iconic tornado slide.

Guests can also enjoy the twists and turns of Mataha Madness and the swirling excitement of Sadaf Swirl. Bahamut’s Rage offers exhilarating drops on a high-thrill log flume water ride and interactive family fun can be enjoyed at Bandit’s Playground splash zone.
