    With the summer now upon us, you will not be short of options at Wadi Adventure Al Ain whether you fancy a day on the beach or want to try out water sport activities.

    Since opening five years ago in 2012, the venue has become one of the top attractions in the UAE and has now become a regular weekend getaway for friends and families looking for an adventure.

    And while the temperature is scorching, Wadi Adventure’s doors are open throughout the summer allowing you to enjoy a fun day out in a fantastic location.

    “Building an adventure park – which is the also the only Adventure park in the whole of the Middle East makes Wadi Adventure unique in every sense,” said Tijo John, sales and marketing manager at Wadi Adventure Al Ain.

    “Being located at the base of the Jebel Hafeet mountain range and having the mountain as a back drop, provides an unparalleled views among all the other parks in the UAE.”

    Surfing, rafting and kayaking are just some of the things you can look forward with classes also available. On top of that, you can also do wakeboarding as well as ziplining.

    “We have the largest surf pool in the Middle East which generates waves of up to the height of over 3 metres, it’s the only pool which guarantees waves every 90 seconds unlike the seas around UAE.

    “Our rafting and kayaking channels are the longest artificial rivers in the world with a length of 1.1 kilometres, while our advanced river is Grade 4 level which is often used by Olympian and World champions.”

    Wadi Adventure has a number of different challenges to conquer.
