Why Macau is a perfect spot for ‘zombie killers’ and sky-top wave pool riders
Non-casino delights of Asia’s Las Vegas include new Zero Latency virtual reality gaming venue and Galaxy Macau’s Grand Resort Deck water attractions
Contrary to popular belief, Macau is not all about casinos.
Frequent visitors might know that it is one of Unesco’s Creative Cities of Gastronomy, but apart from stuffing your face there are plenty of non-gaming attractions in Asia’s Las Vegas.
From virtual reality and live-action gaming to thrilling water attractions, there is something for everyone.
1. Ride in 8,000-square-metre sky-top artificial wave pool
If you love sunning and swimming, the 75,000-square-metre (807,295 square-foot) Grand Resort Deck at Galaxy Macau is the place to be this summer.
The deck features the world’s largest sky-top artificial wave pool, covering 8,000 square metres.
You can ride waves of up to 1.5 metres high on a surfboard or giant float in the wave pool, or chill out and sip a cocktail under the sun on the two 150-metre-long sandy beaches.
Its 575-metre-sky-top aquatic adventure river is the longest of its kind in the world.
