After sliding and twisting through the dark tunnel, a drop into world’s largest fiberglass tube will be icing on the cake.

The fish and shark-filled lagoon can be explored with the inner-tube journey of Shark Attack. The labyrinthine tunnels of the Water Coasters will plop you in the lazy river.

In the controlled and safe underwater environ, walking and breathing will never be a problem. Anyone over 8 years of age can take up this adventure to watch the colorful fishes, sharks, and rays.

4. Cownose Ray Feeding
The crystal clear shallow water of the Shark Lagoon houses not just the sharks but also the elusive Cownose Rays which are friendly enough to wade around you. Marine biologists will accompany the kids in this interactive session while also sharing their knowledge about these creatures. Unlike the Aquaventure Waterpark in Bahamas, here even 6-year-old kids can hand-feed the rays under the supervision of family members and trainers. It is a fun activity for both adults and children.
5. Splasher’s Children’s Play Area
Kids below 4 feet height can climb the Splasher’s Mountain with their parents while passing through the large tipping buckets, climbing frames and also the sprays. The Splasher’s Island in Aquaventure Waterpark in Dubai is the newest addition with seven kid-friendly waterslides.
