Dubai Atlantis Aquaventure sets new Guinness World Record for most water slides
October 7, 2022

Dubai’s Atlantis Aquaventure has set a new Guinness World Record for the most water slides in a water park, with 50. The previous Guinness World Records titleholder had 41 waterslides.

On its completion in 2021, The Atlantis Aquaventure waterpark on Palm Jumeirah in Dubai represented what its owners say is the “biggest waterpark expansion in history” with attractions covering 5.5 hectares being added to the already 17-hectare site.

For the record-breaking attempt and new Guinness World Records™ title for the Most Waterslides in a Waterpark, each slide was tested, documented, and captured on film for the adjudicators to verify. 

Ten of Atlantis Aquaventure’s most experienced lifeguards were selected to receive the official Guinness World Records certificate, alongside Sascha Triemer, Vice President of Marine & Waterpark at Atlantis Dubai.

Following the presentation in front of Atlantis Aquaventure’s ‘The Leap of Faith’, Timothy Kelly, Executive Vice President and Managing Director, Atlantis Resorts and Residences shared “today, as we celebrate this exciting milestone for Atlantis Aquaventure, we acknowledge what it takes to run a world’s leading waterpark and the people who make the magic happen.

“This wouldn’t be possible without our team of more than 500 lifeguards who protect the safety of our guests every single day so that they can relax and enjoy extraordinary record-breaking experiences.”

Alwaleed Osman, Official Adjudicator at Guinness World Records™ advised “Dubai always competes against itself, and is constantly surprising us with its innovation, creativity and determination to maintain its global position as a leading entertainment provider. Atlantis Aquaventure is an Officially Amazing™ addition to the countless number of world records scene in the city.”

ProSlide Technology Inc. installed 17 water rides for the record-breaking expansion, including two state-of-the-art water park towers with multiple Rally RACER mat racers, a new Water KINGDOM featuring the world’s first Kidz ADVENTURE Tower, and multiple ProSlide Water Coasters, including the world’s longest family rafting Water Coaster.
