It’s no secret that the pickleball craze has taken Singapore by storm; in every corner of the Little Red Dot, throngs of paddle-wielding players are taking to the court to dink to their hearts’ content. From East to West, vacant pickleball courts are hard to come by, so the folks over at Wild Wild Wet, of all people, are taking things into their own hands.
Cue PickleSplash – Singapore’s first and only pickleball courts within a water park. Yes, you read right; you’re now able to engage in electrifying rallies one moment, and the next, have a go at Wild Wild Wet’s snaking water slides. Here’s all you need to know about the courts, from how to go about booking them to hourly rates.
PickleSplash is Wild Wild Wet’s new pickleball area that opened earlier this February. It consists of 2 full-sized pickleball courts located near the water park’s Royal Flush attraction, with a couple of benches and tables to rest at after a long set.
The courts aren’t located near any pools so you won’t have to go swimming to retrieve misplaced balls.

The cost to book PickleSplash’s courts is as follows:
| Time slot | Cost |
| Off-peak (Mon-Fri, 12pm-7pm) | $12/h |
| Peak (Sat-Sun & PH, 12pm-7pm) | $16/h |
Unfortunately, the courts here only open from 12pm to 7pm, which means it’ll be quite difficult to catch games here before or after typical working hours. These courts aren’t sheltered either, so it could get unbearably hot when the sun’s out, but thankfully, you are allowed to reschedule your bookings within the next 30 days in the event of rain.

Nonetheless, PickelSplash’s rates are relatively cheap compared to similar courts out there; plus, they provide equipment rental. They’ve got pickleball sets that you can rent out, consisting of a pickleball and a paddle, and you can request up to a set of 4, with each set costing only $5 each.
You can make court bookings via Wild Wild Wet’s website. As of writing, there are a ton of slots up for grabs, perhaps because not many know of their existence yet. Do note that tickets to Wild Wild Wet are not included with your court bookings, and guests without tickets to the water park are restricted to the PickleSplash area only. For entry into Wild Wild Wet after your games, you can purchase tickets to the water park on-site or online that start from $29.

Although it’s not the most convenient spot for everyone, pickleball players who happen to reside in the extreme East of the island will appreciate PickleSplash’s new pickleball courts. They’ve even got the option to cool off in Wild Wild Wet after their sessions; how does a float down the park’s Shiok River sound after sweating it out on the court?
