partners today. Targeted for opening in January 2023, the 18-acre waterpark
at its Gamuda Cove township will comprise 24 thrilling water slides and 15
key attractions, with some being the first-of-its-kind waterslide
experiences in Malaysia – including a Virtual Reality waterslide. Set in
Gamuda Cove, it promises to be an exciting addition to Malaysia’s tourism
industry.
SplashMania Waterpark is currently at 95% state of readiness and will
feature 70% green landscaping
“The addition of the SplashMania Waterpark will not only benefit residents from Gamuda Cove but its surrounding communities and Malaysia at large with a projected annual visitorship of 800,000. The waterpark will allow us to reach out to an untapped eco-tourism opportunity in the Southern Klang Valley region in line with Tourism Selangor’s plan,” said Chu Wai Lune, Chief Operating Officer of Gamuda Land, adding that Gamuda Cove’s strategic location along the ELITE Expressway at the southern corridor of Klang Valley, as well as its proximity to the KLIA and KLIA2, will make it highly accessible to both local and overseas tourists.
SplashMania Waterpark – Where Nature Meets Fun
Gamuda Cove is also located between the lush Paya Indah Discovery Wetlands
and the Kuala Langat Forest Reserves. Drawing inspiration from its
surrounding environment, SplashMania will be shaded by more than 1,500 trees
including native and endangered tree species that will provide respite from
Malaysia’s tropical climate.

First-of-its-kind waterslides in Malaysia
The Shaka Waka is a 78-meter-long multimedia and audio waterslide fitted
with various LED light effects which can be customized by each individual
rider prior to entry to the attraction before splashing in the pool at the
end.
SplashMania Waterpark will play host to 39 rides and attractions and will
feature the first-of-its-kind waterslides in Malaysia
For adrenalin-pumping seekers, the Wild Rush waterslide is a mix of
back-to-back curves, drops, and vortex loops, quickly accelerating vertical
and compound curves throughout the ride from start to finish. It will end as
you plunge into a 3.35-meter-deep pool.
Meanwhile, Atlantis VR is an immersive experience beyond just ordinary
waterslide rides. Guests will be presented with Virtual Reality headgear and
imagine being in a completely different world as they begin their 250-meter
virtual journey through the Lost City of Atlantis.
As part of the preview, Gamuda Land announced that it will introduce its GL
Play mobile application when the waterpark opens as part of the park's
digitalization efforts to offer convenience to its visitors and customers.
When launched, customers would be able to purchase their tickets ahead of
time via the application’s booking platform. It will also allow parkgoers to
navigate through the waterpark using the park map feature and pre-order
their F&B to avoid queues.
Gamuda Cove, a nature sanctuary & smart city With more than 25 years of
town-making experience, Gamuda Land has always invested upfront to ensure
that its townships can stand the test of time. One of the key hallmarks of
Gamuda Land is a central park in all of its township developments.
“By listening to what the land has to tell us, we are passionate about working with nature to restore the land to what it was before us – be it a careful selection of native tree species, our target of planting 1 million trees, having permeable pathways to mitigate flood and more,” Chu explained.
In the last five years, Gamuda Land has also started investing upfront in
placemaking – activating the places within its townships so the community
will have places where they can come out, be in the embrace of nature and
get to know their neighbors.
Launched in 2018, Gamuda Cove spans across 1,530 acres of mindfully planned
township. Prior to the delivery of its homes, Gamuda Land has ensured that
the highway interchange is in place, a 60-acre pet-friendly central park is
ready, and tree-lined streets and dedicated bicycle tracks are ready.
