Thrill-seekers will be, well, thrilled to discover that this water park features some of the steepest water slides in Singapore. Their Free-Fall water slide is aptly named as it is Singapore’s first near-vertical drop water slide. Another heart-stopper is the Torpedo, in which a door gives way below your feet, sending you plunging at speeds of up to 70km/h.

Of course, water park staples such as a lazy river and tsunami wave pool are also available here. We recommend bringing some friends along as some rides such as the Royal Flush and Ular-Lah raft slide require up to 4 people in a float. Don’t worry if you can’t meet the headcount, as you’ll be paired with fellow park-goers – who knows, you might even make a new friend.

Many know Kallang Wave Mall as that mall with the rock climbing wall in its centre – but it’s also home to Splash-N-Surf, a free water park in Singapore  for little ones. The Kids Pool’s just 0.6m deep, a comfortable height for younger children to safely swim. There’s even a carousel with cute buckets that serve as seats for them to dangle their feet off.

The more daring kids can head to the 2-storey water playground at the Water Play Area. You’ll find slides of varying heights here, as well as whimsical water spouts that pitter-patter from above.

Once the kids have worn themselves out, grab a buoy and take in the city skyline as you float effortlessly down the Lazy River ($2/entry) together. Do note that children below the age of 12 – or shorter than 1.2m – will require adult supervision in the river.

3. Adventure Cove Waterpark


Huge water park in Sentosa


water parks playgrounds singapore - adventure cove

A trusty option Singaporeans can rely on for a day away from the heat is Adventure Cove Waterpark. This massive water park in Sentosa features 13 rides and attractions in total, so there’s definitely enough to do for a whole day.

Speed junkies can go for the Riptide Rocket, a hydro-magnetic roller coaster that’ll put you through a series of twists, turns, and heart-stopping plunges. Afterwards, race your partner-in-crime down the Dueling Racer, where you’ll each hop onto mats and rush down face-first on a dual-lane water slide.

adventure cove 2

If you just want to chill, drift down the Adventure River as you sink into your buoys. Get transported to 14 themed zones, including a see-through underwater tunnel. Should you want to get a closer look at Nemo and friends, head over to the Rainbow Reef to snorkel amongst vividly-coloured marine life.

Admission Fee
Adult (18-59): $26 for non-peak | $32 for peak

4. Aqua Adventure


Longest indoor water slides in SG


water parks playgrounds singapore - aqua adventure

If you find yourself hightailing to the slides and re-queueing for multiple runs at water parks, then look no further than Aqua Adventure. This indoor water park at HomeTeamNS Bedok Reservoir houses Singapore’s longest indoor water slide, which measures 114m long.

Grab a buddy and get on the record-setting Double Trouble Slide. This long ride swooshes around multiple curves before spitting you out into a 1.2m-deep Laze Pool.

Then, if you can’t get enough of the swirls and twirls, go solo on the Black Hole Slide. The 84m-long slide lives up to its name, with the majority of the ride taking place in pitch-black darkness.

aqua adventure 2

For a breather, rest atop the floating platforms at the Laze Pool, before jumping back into the action at the Aqua Course where 8 obstacles await. Once you’ve donned the appropriate safety gear, take on balance beams, rickety bridges and platforms suspended in the air. Cheeky friends can also rain down buckets of water to make the course harder, but don’t say we tell you one ah.

aqua adventure 3

Once you’ve had your fill of the water-related attractions, there are also dry activities such as a couple of rock climbing walls at the Clockwork Tower fitted with wacky grips like cogs and clocks. The Scramble Net is also another obstacle course you can traverse, this time filled with tyre swings and huge cargo nets.

Rates: From $25 for HomeTeamNS/Affiliate members, $35 for guests

The place spans a massive 23,000sqft, with its main draw being the 3-storey play area. Here, an interconnected mash of 5 slides and 8 play decks are waiting to be explored. Expect large and winding tube slides, water sprinklers galore, and water buckets that fill up and tip over.

Dinosaur-themed water playground

Another fun retreat nestled within a mall is the Causeway Point Water Playground. Aspiring archaeologists will rejoice, as it’s themed after dinosaurs. Little ones can meet a wide cast of critters here, from the 2 huge pterodactyls and brontosaurus to cute hatchlings popping out of their eggs.

causeway point 2
Image credit: @causewaypointsg via Instagram

A towering volcano looms over the playground, but don’t worry, this one periodically spews water instead. 2 slides – 1 dry and 1 wet – flank the volcano, and kids can even enter the back of the volcano to discover embedded fossils within the walls. We suggest visiting the playground at night to see the volcano illuminated, mimicking an actual eruption.

There are also fun photo ops such as a 2.2m-tall ribcage anchored to the ground as a prehistoric backdrop – and a set of hand drums and an enlarged xylophone, should the children want to have a go at some beats.

Causeway Point Water Playground

7. Splash Tribe Beach Club


Sandcastle-themed playground


water parks playgrounds singapore - splash tribe

Following the trend of fancy new attractions popping up in Sentosa, one that’s fun for the whole family is the Splash Tribe Beach Club.

Kids and adults alike can have a whale of a time at the beach club’s sandcastle-themed water playground in Singapore. The towering sandcastle fort serves as the platform for 2 different types of slides; a longer, looping tube slide and 3 open-air slides to race down. They can also wage war amongst themselves with mounted water guns, while water cones overhead rain down unexpectedly.

splash tribe 2

A 1.2m-deep infinity pool overlooking Palawan Beach also awaits those who prefer to take in the oceanic view away from the splashing. For parents, sun beds and loungers are also on site should you prefer to catch up on a good book while basking in the sun. If that’s not enough, 2-storey gazebos provide an eagle’s eye view of your frolicking children while you munch on some poolside grub.

8. Splish Splash at KidzWorld

There’s more to Singapore Zoo than just visiting the animals – if you’ve got tots, you’ll want to stop by the zoo’s wet play area, Splish Splash at KidzWorld.

water parks playgrounds singapore - splish splash

It’s reminiscent of the zoo’s previous Rainforest at KidzWorld, but this one has more interactive zones, like a water maze with a control panel that adjusts the pressure of the jets. The place is also decked with colourful arches and jets that spout water, making for adorable photo ops for the fam.

With all that space, this park has its fair share of play zones – 3 to be exact. They’ve got water guns, slides made to look like pirate ships, and a water curtain and tipping buckets to stand under to get completely soaked. There’s also a shallow pool suitable for kids aged 2-12, but adults, don’t feel like you can’t wade through with your kiddos.

When play time is up, there are showers and toilets to change in. Plus, plenty of vending machines to grab a snack or drink to replenish depleted energy.

HydroDash is split into different zones of varying difficulty – and visitors of all ages can try their hand at the park’s many obstacle courses.

What you should know before visiting a water park in Singapore


As with all outdoor activities in Singapore, sunscreen is a must. You’ll want those that are water and sweat proof, otherwise you’ll have to take breaks to reapply your sunscreen.

There’s no formal dress code at any of these water parks in Singapore, but be sure to at least wear a swimsuit, as you could be denied entry if you’re not wearing one. If you want to be more modest, you can opt to wear a rash guard. The good thing about rash guards is that they also offer UV protection to your upper body.

Towels are often an extra charge at these water parks, so you’re better off bringing your own. Be sure to bring an extra set of clothes too, so you have something dry to change into after all that fun.


What to prepare before visiting a water park & playground in Singapore


You and junior are very likely going to get wet so you’ll want to prepare for that. That means bathing suits, an extra change of clothes, and even towels to dry off quickly. Waterproof shoes, such as rubber sandals would be appropriate for a water playground to protect feet from stepping on debris.

For toddlers still in diapers, you might want to get them swim diapers. Ones like the Huggies Little Swimmer Pants prevent leaks while letting kids move around freely in water.

Of course, in Singapore’s heat, you’ll want to apply lots of waterproof sunscreen before heading out into the sun. Waterproof hats are also a great way to protect heads from getting sunburnt.

Don’t forget to stay hydrated too. Even though you’ll be surrounded by water, you should drink up regularly after playing for hours. A good heat-insulating tumbler will work wonders in keeping your drink cold, perfect for when it’s time to cool off after playing in the sun for hours.


Cool off at these water parks & playgrounds in Singapore


The next time you’re racking your brain for a weekend outing with your child, visit one of these refreshing and free water play areas in Singapore for an exciting afternoon. You might just be tempted to join in the splashing fun yourself because ultimately, there’s a kid in all of us, no matter how old we are.
