2nd July 2023 – KUALA LANGAT, Selangor \u2013 The Menteri Besar of Selangor, Y.A.B Dato’ Seri Amirudin Bin Shari today officiated Selangor\u2019s latest tourism offering, the 18-acre SplashMania Waterpark located in the township of Gamuda Cove. The grand launch signalled the waterpark operating at full capacity with all 24 waterslides now available to the public along with its 15 attractions.
Speaking on the water park\u2019s contribution to the state, Y.A.B Dato’ Seri Amirudin Bin Shari said,
\u201cGamuda Land\u2019s SplashMania Waterpark has put the South of Selangor on the map and breathed
new life into the South of Selangor, complementing the state\u2019s efforts in developing the Integrated
Development Region in South Selangor as part of the First Selangor Plan. These include new
townships such as Gamuda Cove and Gamuda Gardens, all strategically located within Selangor.
\u201cBoth these developments catalyse the growth in both northern and southern Klang Valley. With
the company’s investment into more sustainable infrastructure, it has further rejuvenated the local
environment while also being a solid foundation for future investments to cater to the demand
generated by these efforts.\u201d
\u201cSince the soft opening of SplashMania in February 2023, the water park has welcomed over
75,000 monthly visitors from both the domestic and regional tourism markets. The success of
SplashMania is however not limited to its individual visitorship but rather in how it effectively
cross-pollinates with the host of other ecotourism offerings within Gamuda Cove that indicate the
emergence of a major attraction hub in Selangor,\u201d said YBhg Tan Sri Dato\u2019 Setia Haji Ambrin Bin
Buang, Chairman of Gamuda Berhad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He continued by saying, \u201cOur construction and development projects have not only reshaped the
physical landscape of our country but have also played a pivotal role in generating employment
opportunities. By investing in state-of-the-art infrastructure, revitalising communities, and
constructing innovative spaces for business and leisure, we have created a thriving ecosystem that
fosters job growth and economic prosperity.\u201d
SplashMania Waterpark \u2013 Where Nature Meets Fun
Comprising 39 waterslides and attractions, SplashMania Waterpark is the latest addition to
Gamuda Cove\u2019s placemaking initiatives with 70% of the waterpark dedicated to green spaces. The
initial phase of opening was driven by the domestic market, mainly from Greater Klang Valley and
neighbouring states, while primary international tourists were from Vietnam, Singapore and
Australia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The much-anticipated introduction of Malaysia\u2019s first Virtual Reality Waterslide, Atlantis VR will
further augur the park\u2019s attractiveness. While the two latest additions Monsta and Twista
waterslides are equipped with high-speed twists and turns, an adrenalin pumping ride for thrill
seekers.
Other notable waterslides include The Shaka Waka, which is a one-of-a-kind enclosed tube slide
with audio and light effects, creating a unique experience within the slide itself as visitors travel
down at high speeds, The Plunge, a high-speed flume angled at 78 degrees, which plummets visitors
from six storeys high from the top of Amazonia Ship, and The Wild Rush, where visitors blast
through narrow looping and twisting tunnels with back-to-back curves and tight 360-degree loops.
Gamuda Cove \u2013 Nature Sanctuary, Smart City<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dubbed as a nature sanctuary and smart city, Gamuda Cove have been meticulously planned to
incorporate innovation, technology and sustainability amongst nature. Through its engineering
expertise, it has sustainably transformed the once problematic peat soil, making it suitable to be
developed into a place where people and nature can come together, harmoniously.
Gamuda Land targets to plant 270,000 trees in Gamuda Cove. To date, close to 12,000 trees have
been planted within the township. This initiative is part of the #OneMillionTrees programme aimed
at preserving the country\u2019s biodiversity by planting one million trees across its developments by
2030.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Gamuda Cove has also earmarked 90-acres of reserved land to develop a Wetlands Arboretum,
adjacent to the 1,111-acre Paya Indah Discovery Wetlands.
Supporting the overall masterplan is its comprehensive green transportation network which
includes 75km of carefully planned pedestrian and cycling paths. For intracity travel, an e-tram
currently serves residents and visitors at Gamuda Cove \u2013 the first development in Malaysia to
have such infrastructure. The tram network is being further expanded to connect other key areas
of the township. \u201cWith its future-focused masterplan, we believe that Gamuda Cove will be a place forbusiness, education, leisure and tourism all merged into essentially a highly liveable family-
friendly and environmentally-sensitive community,\u201d remarked YBhg Tan Sri Dato\u2019 Setia Haji Ambrin.
