The first Atlantis Aquaventure Waterpark in Asia, the third in the world, is at Haitang Bay in Sanya and opened on May 26 last year.
As the largest waterpark in Asia covering 200,000 sq m, the Atlantis Aquaventure Waterpark offers people at all ages 35 entertainment projects all year round, enriching the aquatic amusement market in Hainan.
The park has 15 top-level waterslides, the most exciting of which has become popular among young people through online short video platforms after its opening before long. Challengers start from a height of 25.1 m and at an angle of 75 degrees and fall through a tunnel surrounded by sharks in just three to four seconds.

The park also has a 1.8-km drifting river that fits a whole family. Nineteen mini slideways are specially prepared for children and different scenes created at the Lost Chambers Aquarium will add to their immersive experiences.
The waterpark belongs to the Atlantis Sanya, a landmark one-stop resort complex which opened on April 28. Built with an 11 billion yuan ($1.74 billion) investment, it provides larger-than-life exotic and marine exhibits and offers rich dining experiences. The complex is located at Haitang Bay, which has beautiful beaches stretching more than 10 km in northern Sanya, dubbed by some as the Hawaii of the East.
