The Middle East’s first ever temperature controlled, indoor/outdoor waterpark is setting Wednesday nights aside for ladies only.

The coolest young turtle in town will be called Squirtle.

Although the evenings are getting cooler, the ladies will still be able to enjoy the warm water and the waterpark, both of which are set to a comfortable temperature all year round.

Every Wednesday between 5.30pm to 11pm, the park will be staffed completely by women, from cleaners, security officers, mechanics and technicians to the manager and 26 female lifeguards.

Wahooo! General Manager, Damien Latham said the exclusive night had always been on the timetable but now was the right time to introduce it. "We are fully aware that many women prefer to have some time on their own and we have known that from the start. It was just a case of when to begin. We have recently received plenty of enquiries and it seems as though Wednesday night is the most popular choice.”

"There are lot of ladies who come to Wahooo!" he added. "They currently make up around 40% of our visitors, and that's also reflected in the number of 'Burkinis' we're selling, which have become one of our most popular items."

Boys of 10 years and under will be allowed in with female family members only. Age identification is required.

Wahooo! Waterpark is one of Bahrain’s star leisure attractions. Separated by a wall of glass, both the indoor and outdoor areas feature a mix of real and artificial sub-tropical plants to enhance the paradise, tropical island theme, centred around a moored schooner.

The park has a mix of jaw-dropping descents like the 230 metre Master Blaster Rollercoaster and the four-lane Matt Racer which shoots visitors down a high-speed tube. But there is also a softer side for a more gentle experience and even lounging areas which are more for onlookers than outgoers.

Spread over 15,000 square metres, Wahooo! has attractions for all ages and abilities.
