Water World is the largest water park on the Costa Brava and one of the best-known attractions in Lloret de Mar. With over 20 water rides, zones for every age (from babies to teens), 9 hectares of facilities and a wooded pine setting, it’s a guaranteed full-day plan for families and groups.

This guide covers up-to-date prices, headline rides, how to get there and the tricks most visitors only learn too late.

What to know before going

It’s a full-day plan, not a half-day one. To make the entrance pay (it isn’t cheap), you need at least 5–6 hours inside. A full-day plan with lunch included.

Operating season: mid-May to mid-September. Check exact dates on the official website (they can shift).

It’s outdoor. Cloudy or wet days are much less fun. Ideal for sunny weather.

Practical tips

1. Get there early (10:00–10:30 opening). The headline rides have queues from 11:00.

2. Bring flip-flops (non-slip soles). You walk a lot on wet surfaces.

3. Beach parasol / sarong: sun loungers are limited. Arrive early to grab a shaded spot.

4. Water-resistant sunscreen: it washes off in the water. Reapplication mandatory every 2 hours.

5. Waterproof watch or payment wristband. Don’t take your phone into the water.

6. Dry bag for phone/camera. They rent them; better to bring your own.

7. Changing rooms cost extra: wear your swim gear from home.

What to bring

  • Swim gear on + change
  • Towels (at least 1 per person)
  • Flip-flops
  • 50+ sunscreen (reapply)
  • Cap
  • Empty water bottle (refill inside)
  • Light food for emergency (snacks)
  • Portable phone charger (if you want photos)
  • Card for inside purchases
