Eagle Hills Jordan is developing the first water park in Aqaba, Jordan, which will be part of Saraya Aqaba.

Eagle Hills Jordan is the developer behind Saraya Aqaba, located on the shores of the Red Sea. The project is a mixed-use tourism and leisure destination.

Saraya Aqaba includes residential properties, four luxury hotels, entertainment outlets and facilities, and the first water park in Aqaba.

The water park, designed by Amusement Logic, is located on an area of 36 acres and can accommodate approximately 1,865 guests (via Trade Arabia).

In addition, there will be a pool located in the family area of the water park, as well as restaurants and other F&B.

Eagle Hills and Emaar Entertainment previously formed a joint venture to take the Marassi Aquarium and Underwater Zoo to shopping mall Marassi Galleria in Bahrain.
