Default wild wadi - too cold?

Mornin' all,

Any thoughts on whether it's too chilly for Wild Wadi this Saturday?

I'm thinking as it's not peak summer it may be less queuey... and if I carry a towel and dry off and put a top on after each ride I should be OK and not get ill, no?

How much should i expect to pay for food and other sundries there?

food in there is really cheap, not sure if the water is temperature controlled or not, I would imagine it is. someone will know. I hate the place, it used to be a great place to go before they opened up to all the residents of the hotel now it is mobbed all the time! Go though, you have to experience it yourself.

Too cold? you joking? it's 35 degrees today or thereabouts, how warm are you looking for?!

It'll be fine, honest...

Obviously English - talking about the weather.

The foods 'orrible, but it is cheap, the water is temp controlled, try to get a bed at the wave pool.
It's bloody expensive to get in and I prefer Dreamland in Umm Al Qwain anyway.

And Dreanmland's licensed!!

Yep, it reminds me of misspent days on holiday in Tenerife!!

Apart from the Shisha, and the locals, and the other tourists, in fact, come to think about it, the only thing that's the same is that it has a pool bar and you keep feeling the odd "warm current" after a few beers with your mates!

Oh and it's got Barracuda next door. I was there a while back with Smoggy Boy and did a write up here.

probably, but still exciting going to a water park. haven't been to a theme park in ages. well that's not true, I went to Thorpe Park in October but before that it was years and years ago.

Must locate speedos.
