Between those two I would pick Atlantis.

There is a new one in Abu Dhabi...

Haven't been to Wild Wadi since Jumeirah Screamer reopened but Atlantis always has my vote - you can waste hours just on the lazy river!

Yas waterpark not due to open for another month (ish)

Yes to the beer iirc.

The one at Yas looks great, stayed there on Friday night.

tbh I don't rate either Wild Wadi or Atlantis but the latter is better.

You were able to get a beer in the waterpark but no longer.

Need to make your way to the Atlantis Hotel Pool bar for alcoholic beverages.

Ask people in the office if they have an Entertainer book, if so ask them for the 2 for 1's.

Alternatively buy an Entertainer, well worth having.

I'm going to differ from my esteemed colleagues above and name Wild Wadi as the best one. The new rides (from about a year ago now) which give you an experience which I imagine is similar to being flushed down a huge toilet get my volte evey time. But to be honest, they're both great parks smile

Good way of describing it actually, must admit I did scream like a girl the first time I tried the highest one as I hate heights!

When the family and I went to Atlantis water park the son and I didn't tell the wife which slide we were going to do first, we just joined the queue. Chatting away until we reached the top and only then did she ask which slide we were doing. "You will be fine" was our response.... of course by now were well into the final queue. The wife wasn't happy that we had pulled a fast one, but she still went anyway.

After all these years and she still hasn't twigged that we do the biggest rides / roller coasters first. Oh the fun we have...
