CLUBD OASIS is located within the Haeundae LCT The Sharp mixed-use development, which also houses a luxury hotel, shopping mall, and an observatory. Sat right in front of Haeundae Beach, it’ll take you about an hour’s drive from Busan’s Gimhae International Airport to reach CLUBD OASIS.
If you’re planning on taking the public transport, make your way to Exit 7 of Jungdong Station on the Busan Metro Line 2, and your destination is just a 500m walk away. There are also a couple of buses that will bring you from Haeundae Station to CLUBD OASIS, such as bus no. 100, 141, 181, 200, and 38 just to name a few.
Since CLUBD OASIS is made up of water park and spa zones, you’ll need different tickets to be admitted into each zone, or you can purchase a Combo ticket to gain unfettered access to all of its amenities. You also have the option to buy a half-day ticket, if you’re strapped for time but would still like to dip your toes into CLUBD OASIS’ offerings.

CLUBD OASIS is massive; it spans over 3 floors and has 5 different zones, each with its own theme. Adrenaline junkies can make a beeline for The Oasis zone, as that’s where the outdoor water park is situated.
Undoubtedly, the main attraction here is the park’s 200m-long water slide, so grab a float to conquer the twists and turns of this snaking ride.
Little ones will have a whale of a time at the OASIS Pool, which is a dainty lil wading pool surrounding a water playground with pint-sized slides to whoosh down. When they’re all knackered out, lie on a float and float down the mellow lazy river.
Another one of CLUBD OASIS’ hotspots is its 80m-long infinity pool which can also be found in its water park. It’s your call; pose for IG-worthy snaps while you soak, or recline on one of the pool’s sailing boat-like sun beds as you overlook Haeundae Beach. The pool also lights up wonderfully in hues of green and yellow come dusk, making late night swims especially vibey.

When you’re feeling particularly boujee, you can rent a 2 or 4-person cabana (from ₩200,000), which serves as an ideal lounging spot to dry off after splashing around.
The fun doesn’t stop there though; there’s a whole indoor section to the water park, called The Palm.
There’s a whole wave pool in the middle of The Palm, and it has been the venue for impressive DJ pool parties in the past. Speaking of which, this part of the water park will not admit children past 6pm, so if you’re looking for somewhere to escape from the shrieks outside during the evening, this is the place to be.
But before then, the rowdy tots can have a go at the jungle-themed water playground here, as well as an obstacle course consisting of inflatables and an overhead net to hang on. The lazy river from the outdoors portion of the park also runs through THE PALM, so you can hitch a ride in it to bask in the sun once again.
For some peace and quiet, you can head to the 2 indoor massage pools. They’re fitted with pressurised jets of water, to knead all the knots out of your back. You can also grab some nosh at The Palm when you’re feeling peckish. There’s the Palm Kitchen which whips up Korean, Japanese, and Chinese cuisine, while the Oasis Bar & Snack has finger food such as burgers and grilled chicken.

Those in search of the perfect spa day to soothe their weary bones can stop by The Sand zone. There are 5 themed saunas here at your disposal, namely the Salt, Cypress, Red Clay, Elvan, and Ice rooms. Like their names suggest, they’re all made of different materials, which bring about various health benefits.
For instance, the Cypress room is constructed with cypress wood, and along with a refreshing aroma, a sauna session within it promotes good skin health and puts the mind at ease. On the other hand, the guests of the Red Clay room can expect a boost to their alertness and mood, while detoxifying their pores and muscles.
After sweating it out, there’s a lounge area for you to kick back and relax on recliners that go all the way back. There are also a couple of massage chairs available, if you need to remedy sore legs and backs instead.

The Horizon area is up on the rooftop, and it even has 2 cosy sauna pods for you to use too, if the 5 back down on The Sand were not enough.

A pleasant walking foot bath can also be found here, complete with raised pebbles for a self-guided foot acupressure session. Other than that, come here in the evening and grab a seat for epic panoramas of the city skyline against the setting sun.
Finally, The Mirage area of CLUBD OASIS is where you’ll find some of Busan’s famed hot springs. Fun fact: CLUBD OASIS plays host to the first and only urban hot springs in the country, and they’ve been approved as the 8th national wellness hot spring in all of South Korea.
Don’t worry, that’s not wine; it’s the minerals in the hot spring’s water that give it a violet shade.

If you’re dying for a dip yourself, you’ve got 5 to choose from here, but no matter which one you pick, you’ll be privy to views of Haeundae Beach down below. The stone path beside the hot springs flanked by the willowy plants is also quite the popular photo spot amongst visitors, so get your camera out for that.
Water parks are some of the best family-friendly options when it comes to planning a list of things to do on vacation. Throw in a spa where the grown-ups can unwind at while the kids go ham on the rides and you’ve got the perfect pit stop on your travels, so give CLUBD OASIS a shot the next time you’re in Busan.
