Wahooo! also offers a pool that recreates an indoor-beach experience, generating waves nearly one-metre high.

Bridges and footpaths allow visitors, including those in wheelchairs or with pushchairs, to make a full circuit around the waterpark, and restaurant terraces and function rooms are located on site.

Furthermore, Wahooo! provides amenities and services, including prayer rooms, and a retail outlet.

The park operates in a ‘cashless environment’ using an RFID-system, where the preferred amount that a visitor wishes to spend in the waterpark can be loaded onto a wristband at the entrance.
