WhiteWater is thrilled to announce its partnership with Aquarabia Qiddiya City, a revolutionary water theme park in Saudi Arabia, to introduce a one-of-a-kind aquatic experience. WhiteWater will be responsible for designing and delivering 22 exhilarating rides and attractions, including both record-breaking and signature experiences.
Enthusiasts of slides will be delighted by the adrenaline-pumping rides, while families can enjoy a variety of slides and kids’ activities with a unique twist. A standout feature of the park is the FusionFortress 18, designed for families to play together. This structure includes ground-level interactives, allowing children with limited mobility to engage with various toys, water features, and interactive elements. The FusionFortress 18 offers 181 play features, 11 water slides, tipping buckets, and a water geyser reaching nearly 30 meters into the air. Adorned with hand-carved desert animals and vibrant patterns, this attraction ensures hours of entertainment for all visitors.
The water theme park will showcase several attractions never seen before in the Middle East, such as the Mat Blaster water slide and the AquaLoop + Flatline Loop Fusion, combining two heart-pounding drop slides into one thrilling experience at the iconic Camel Rock.
Mike Rigby, General Manager & Regional Vice President for the Middle East at WhiteWater, expressed his excitement, stating, “We are honoured to partner with the groundbreaking Aquarabia Qiddiya City and look forward to bringing our innovative water slides, attractions, and experiences to this remarkable destination in Saudi Arabia.”
To cater to all visitors, the park will also offer dry attractions, setting a new industry standard:
- Hyper Viper (also known as ‘Shoot the Chute’): Guests can experience a high-thrill 15-meter drop, creating the industry’s biggest splash, accompanied by unique lighting and spray features for an enhanced experience.
- Wadi Tahaddi (also known as ‘Spinning Rapids’): Groups of six can embark on a circular raft, enjoying a heart-pounding adventure suitable for the whole family as they spiral down the over 600-meter-long ride.
Kelly Sall, General Manager of Water Rides at WhiteWater, highlighted the company’s commitment to creating inclusive attractions that entertain diverse audiences. The Shoot the Chute and Spinning Rapids Ride exemplify this commitment, offering unforgettable experiences that bring people together, fostering unity and fun for all visitors to this water theme park.
Aquarabia will introduce the first inland surf pool in Saudi Arabia, powered by Endless Surf technology. This pool will provide an authentic surf experience with customizable waves and surf zones for surfers of all levels. The technology allows for waves to be produced every 8-16+ seconds, catering to multiple surfers simultaneously and accommodating various skill levels.
Paul Chutter, President of Endless Surf, commented, “Surfing is a rapidly growing global sport, and we are excited to introduce it to the people of Saudi. Our state-of-the-art technology will empower surfers to push their skills to new limits, offering a platform for spectators to witness riders conquer waves from the pool’s shoreline.”
WhiteWater is at the forefront of revolutionizing the global attractions landscape, showcasing unparalleled scale, design expertise, and extensive experience. With approximately 1,692 meters of slide path already installed in the water theme park, anticipation is building as the world eagerly awaits the grand unveiling of this unique destination.
