What do I wear to Aquarabia?
When visiting Aquarabia, it is important to ensure that your waterwear meets the park's specific safety and cultural standards.
The dress code is designed and implemented to ensure safety on high-intensity rides whilst also maintaining a family-friendly environment that respects local public decency regulations. With this in mind, it is mandatory that any clothing worn needs to be made of professional swimwear fabrics, as regular clothing pieces, or clothing with metal buckles, zippers or rivets may damage to the equipment and injury to the rider.
All guests are encouraged to wear only appropriate swimwear, as normal clothing such as shorts and t-shirts are not permitted on the rides. Transparent or overly revealing swimwear is strictly prohibited. Guests are expected to transition from public areas to the water park by wearing modest "dry" clothing (such as clothing that covers or an abaya for women or a shirt/shorts for men) before changing into designated swimwear in the locker rooms.
Normal Days & Family Days:
These days are dedicated to mixed gender groups and families. The dress code remains centred on "adequate coverage" and family-friendly attire. Single men may be restricted from entry on these specific days to maintain the family-focused atmosphere.
- Men: Above-knee swim shorts or board shorts at a minimum, a rash guard set is also permitted.
- Women: Sleeveless and knee-length swimsuits or Burkini. Bikinis and one piece swimsuits cut above the knee are not permitted.
- Children under eight (<8) years old: Relaxed swimwear guidelines, attire should be respectful of cultural standards.
Ladies' Days:
During designated Ladies Days, the park operates with an all-female staff. While the environment is private, the park still requires "appropriate and respectful" swimwear. However, these sessions often allow for more flexibility in swimwear styles that might not be used during mixed-gender days, provided they are still safe for ride use.
- Women: Sleeveless, knee-length swimsuits, one-piece swimsuits or Burkinis are allowed. Bikinis are not permitted.
- Children under eight (<8) years old: Relaxed swimwear guidelines, attire should be respectful of cultural standards.
