Turkey-based Polin Group, a global leading waterparks brand, will make its debut in the GCC next year with a new waterpark in Muscat, Oman, a media report said.

The waterpark will be built at Al Bustan in collaboration with the BBH Group, a real estate organisation in the sultanate, reported Times of Oman.

The construction of the waterpark may be completed within a period of seven to 12 months, Dr Khalid Al Matani, chairman of BBH Group was quoted as saying in the report.

“It will be built on 42,000 sq m and will have 22 water games and slides for both children and adults. This will include Polin Group’s multiple-award-winning water slide, the King Cobra, as well as other rides such as the Rocket Freefall, Looping Rocket, Windigo, Space Shuttle, Speed Slides Group, Flying Boats, Navigator, Trail Coaster, Surf Stream, Lazy River, and many more,” Al Matani said.

“The waterpark will also have an exclusive area to host birthday parties and anniversaries, and other functions alike. The project will be built for an estimated cost of RO15 million,” he added, noting  that  there are plans to set up six international restaurants which will serve Turkish, Indian and other cuisines.
