The world’s largest underwater theme park is located in Bahrain and it is the perfect vacation spot for divers.
Dive Bahrain recently opened in the Amwaj Islands. The park covers an impressive 100,000 square meters and is filled with exciting objects and creatures to discover.
The official website describes the concept as follows: “The world’s largest underwater theme park will cover an area of 100,000 square meters. The dive site has a 70-meter long decommissioned Boeing 747 as its centerpiece, the largest aircraft ever to be submerged.
“The site will provide an exceptional dive experience. Phase 1 of the project includes submerging the aircraft, a replica of a pearl merchant’s house and sail structures. Future phases of the project are still being studied but could include reef balls, ships, and sculptures.”
The world-class theme park is a joint project between the Bahrain Tourism and Exhibitions Authority (BTEA) and the Supreme Council for Environment (SCE). It is a safe haven for coral reef to grow and as part of the project, divers will learn about eco-tourism and marine wildlife preservation.
