Here are ten awesome and fun things for your children to partake in while staying with Atlantis, The Palm:
1.Meet with the Sea Lions: Get up close and personal with Sea Lion Point's most charming residents in their specially designed marine habitat. Make your kids encounter these charming animals and make a tangible connection with gentle petting, a shake of a flipper or two and if they are really lucky, a big fishy kiss. All children between 6 and 12 years of age must be accompanied by a paying adult (18 years and above). Each booking includes all day access to Aquaventure Waterpark and 25% off same day admission to The Lost Chambers Aquarium.

Take the two-day course covering the basics of scuba diving qualifying you to dive up to 12 metres under professional supervision.
3.Swing high up the Tower of Poseidon: Prepare to do battle with the Aquaconda, the world's largest waterslide. This giant sea serpent will catapult you and your friends on a wild ride through a dark and twisting tunnel, before being dropped into the largest fiber glass tube in the world.
