WATERPLAY
AQUAVENTURE
Atlantis offers unparalleled fun and
excitement with a water experience
unlike any other in the world. Introducing
Aquaventure. You will enjoy innovative
slides and rides that redefine water fun
allowing you to enjoy the water in a
variety of ways all day long without ever
leaving it:
• Experience the Power Tower – the
grand centerpiece of the Atlantis
waterscape – at a towering 120 feet tall,
four adrenaline-inducing water slides
include:
• The Abyss, a 200-foot body slide that
descends a staggering 50-foot near-
vertical drop and plunges into a lagoon
swarming with alligator gar.
• The Drop spirals through the center of
the Power Tower as riders encounter
the momentary fear of sliding into an
optical illusion projected in the slide
tube.
• The Falls drops down 58 feet to ground
level, then propels riders up again
through twisting turns.
• The Surge, accessible from the stairs
at Power Tower’s top level, features a
camel-back drop into a cavern where a
flash flood pushes the inner-tubers to
the end of the ride.
• Surrounding the Power Tower is The
Current, a mile-long expedition with
4-foot waves pushing guests along in
underground tunnels, rapids and slides.
• Climb the 6-story Mayan Temple and
plunge down one of five rides, including
The Leap of Faith, which propels
adventure seekers on an near vertical
drop that ultimately passes through a
shark-filled lagoon.
• Guests can race one another, two-
at-a-time, down the twin highspeed
Challenger Slides and their speeds are
displayed on time clocks located at the
bottom of the slides to determine the
winner.
• On the 5-story corkscrew Serpent
Slide, riders travel on a tube at high
speeds, twisting and turning through
the dark core of the Mayan Temple
and culminating with a leisurely
pass through a clear acrylic tunnel
submerged in a shark-filled lagoon.
• The Jungle Slide takes guests on a
thrilling high-speed safari through
exotic jungles and caves built into the
heart of the Mayan Temple.
• For a tranquil pursuit, Enjoy The Lazy
River Ride, lounging on tubes while a
gentle current slowly propels you along
a quarter-mile loop.
Guests must be at least 48 inches tall to
ride the water slides in the Power Tower
and Myan Temple.
