Pro Tips

  1. 1.Bring reef shoes or water sandals as the splash pad surfaces can get hot under the African sun, especially during midday hours.
  2. 2.Pack high SPF sunscreen (SPF 50+) and reapply frequently, as South Africa's UV index is extremely high and water play can give a false sense of being protected from the sun.
  3. 3.Arrive early in the morning (opening time) to secure shaded seating areas, which fill up quickly on hot days.
  4. 4.Bring South African Rand in cash as some facilities may not accept international credit cards, and check current entrance fees before visiting.
  5. 5.Pack your own snacks and drinks in a cooler to save money, but confirm the park's outside food policy beforehand.
