About Water World Ocean Park Hong Kong
It hasn’t been long since Water World at Ocean Park Hong Kong first opened its doors to guests. The massive waterpark opened last September 21, 2021 after four years of construction and delays, and became Asia’s first all-weather, year-round waterpark. Step into an oasis as you reconnect with nature in Water World, which is surrounded by greenery and sparkling waters. With such a setting, Water World has taken steps to be environmentally-conscious in their design and ways of business by saving energy and minimising water consumption!

What to Do
Rides
There are five different themed zones to explore at Water World: the Torrential River, Thrill Valley, the Splendid Reef, Adventure Coast, and the Hidden Village. Here are some star attractions to give you an idea on what to expect during your trip:
1. Whiskers’ Splash
Head on over to the Hidden Village for family-friendly fun for guests of all ages. The Whiskers’ Splash is a safe splash zone where kids can enjoy themselves while their parents cool down. It’s like a regular playground, but better and much more refreshing! There are slides, sprinklers, and heaps more so the kids are entertained.
2. Thunder Loop, Daredevil Drop, and Bravery Cliffs
Make sure to drop—pun intended—by Thrill Valley for a screamin’ good time. The Thunder Loop, Daredevil Drop, and Bravery Cliffs are all appropriately named body slides with sudden drops and maximum splashes. We should let you know, though, that these slides are not for the faint of heart or for guests below 120cm in height.
3. Cyclone Spin and Tropical Twist
In the Torrential River, you can look forward to safe thrills for kids, teens, and adults. The Cyclone Spin and Tropical Twist are outdoor twin slides perfect to be enjoyed by friends, partners, and family! One is pitch black and the other is translucent, giving a different twist-and-turn experience, so make sure you don’t leave the park without trying both.
Attractions
1. Big Wave Bay
Looking to chill out after a day of adrenaline pumping water slides? Drop by Adventure Coast’s Big Wave Bay for the ultimate break. Here, you can enjoy great views of the open sea while floating about in relaxing waters. Lounging around on a pool floatie in this outdoor pool with a picturesque backdrop is an experience you won’t get anywhere else.
2. Horizon Cove
Over at Horizon Cove in the Hidden Village, you can opt for the indoor wave pool where families can splish and splash all-day long. Ride along the double diamond waves while you enjoy the entertainment featured on the Horizon Stage. The translucent skylight rooftop also provides the best lighting for amazing poolside pictures for the ‘gram.
3. Riptide
Create unforgettable memories at Adventure Coast’s Riptide. Drift along this outdoor river that leads into an infinity pool with spectacular views of the ocean. But, this isn’t any old river. Riptide offers a variety of interactive water features to keep you cool throughout the winding path.
Shopping
Don’t forget to float by their extraordinary souvenir shop, aptly named the Treasure Reef. Find swimmers, bathers or togs (depending on where in Aus you’re from) and equipment to prepare for the splashin’ good time you’re about to have. A wide range of Water World collectibles are also available to help you remember your trip!
Dining
All that action definitely works up an appetite! At Water World you can take your pick from four different dining options:
1. Cavern’s Kitchen
At Hidden Village, there’s a dish for everyone at Cavern’s Kitchen. They offer a great selection of international delicacies, as well as plant-based options for every guest. Munch on your favourite dishes as you watch other guests float by on the Lazy Cruise.
2. Big Wave Snacks
If you’re already at Adventure Coast, you can fill up on gourmet snacks at Big Wave Snacks. Take in the panoramic sea view with a happy and satisfied stomach. If you need to recharge, but still wanna stay cool, they’ve also got frozen drinks on the menu to energise you back up.
3. Horizon Grill
Right next to the indoor pool at Hidden Village is the Horizon Grill. Enjoy a delectable selection of different cuisine, while you jam along to fantastic live performances. There are Halal, gluten-free, and vegetarian options available to accommodate all guests!
4. Splash Shop
If you just need a quick refresher while you take a break from the slides and rides, the Splash Shop at Hidden Village is the perfect place. They’ve got ice cream, snacks, and cold drinks to quickly fill you up before you dive back into the fun. Just make sure not to spoil your appetite for lunch or dinner, so you can try other awesome food spots!
How to Get To Water World
Guests can take the MTR South Island Line for a direct drop-off at Ocean Park Station, where the shuttle bus will be available to take them to Water World.
Wanna knock out two parks in one go? Although it’s an amazing feat, we’d be happy to see you try. Take note, though, that Water World is a different attraction to Ocean Park Hong Kong. So, if you’re already planning a trip to Ocean Park Hong Kong, you can conveniently take the complimentary shuttle bus to Water World, but you must secure a separate ticket for the Ocean Park theme park. Luckily, you can book your Ocean Park Hong Kong tickets on Klook for the best deals!
