Wild Wadi offers water and sun safety program suited to children between the ages of 4 and 12. The program teaches them how to be safe in a waterpark, swimming pool or beach. But until they take this program, let’s see some water rules for kids’ safety.
Rule 1 – Don’t be nutty, but swim with a buddy.
When swimming at a pool, beach, lake, or waterpark, always swim with a buddy and let adults know where you are. Never swim alone!
Rule 2 – Walk; don’t run!
Running is a very quick way to sustain injuries at pools and waterparks. Remember to walk; don’t run!
Rule 3 – Never dive into shallow water!
Diving into shallow water is only a little different from falling headlong. If you don’t want to butt the floor, don’t dive into shallow water. In this connection, seek to know where’s shallow and not.
Rule 4
If something’s going wrong, do not panic. Rather, be calm as a palm. Panicking doesn’t help.
Rule 5 – Call for help!
If something’s going wrong call for help immediately. A good person to seek is the lifeguard if they’re available.
Rule 6
When on a boat, wear a float!
There are no boats in Wild Wadi, but you should wear a floating lifejacket while on a boat if you’re not good at swimming.
Rule 7
When having fun in the sun, don’t stay indulgently or blithely in it, but check it. Use sun block, sit in the shade, drink plenty of fluids, and avoid the hottest parts of the day.
The Wild Wadi App lets you take a glimpse of what the Wild Wadi experience is like. You get to see the thrilling Jumeirah Sceirah or the relaxing ride down on Juna’s Journey.

Wild Wadi is clearly full of fun, electricity and exuberance. Ask me if I recommend it. I definitely do. It’s a good way to lay off burden and well ecstasy up to the brim of you. It is in this connection I have said at the beginning that you’d be surprised at how insouciant you’d quickly probably become. If you don’t have any unflinching or serious psychological challenge, you should certainly become insouciant quickly. If everything’s ready, you should tour Wild Wadi. Stay buoyant!
