The Valley Of Waves
It is one of the most advanced water parks in the world, dominated by the Roaring Lagoon, a 6 500-square metre wave pool with a palm-fringed beach. Hydraulic mechanisms can generate a 1,8 metre wave every 90 seconds. When waves are not generated, a bobbing cycle is generated in a diamond pattern.
All Resort residents enter the park free of charge by presenting their resident cards.
The water park has five exhilarating flume rides - from the Temple of Courage, swimmers drop 17 meters down a 70-meter chute, hurtle under a bridge and splash into a small pool; the Tarantula and the Scorpion are body slides, and the Viper and the Mamba are flume rides where the swimmers float on large inflated tubes.
On the island is an ethnic village with a clothing store, a sweet shop and a fast food outlet, as well as a pool and playground for children.
The Royal Bath is a swimming pool that is also open to both day visitors and Resort residents. The large pool is adjacent to an amphitheatre, which can accommodate an audience of over 800. On the pool deck the Observatory Bar offers exotic cocktails and is covered by an antique dome.
