To add some spice to your experience, as you float along the river, remember to collect different blocks and add to your boat to stand out from other boats ;)

Tips for Visiting Legoland Water Park
● The park opens between 10am to 7pm in summer, and 6pm in winter
● Look out to combine your experience with Legoland Dubai ticket
● There’s loads of dining options at Riverland Dubai. Be sure to check in.
● Tots under 3 yrs access the park free of charge
● Be sure to get to the park early if you want to catch the public car park and more so if you don’t want to park in the heat. The VIP and Valet parking are however available but at an extra fee
● The weekends are busy and get busier in summer. Note, UAE’s temperatures are high basically from April through to Oct. So without a doubt, expect these to be the peak for any water park in the region. Also notably, Fri/Sat mark UAE’s weekend. Weekdays though tend to be much more quieter, less crowded and especially in the mornings making them ideal time to visit.
● Cabanas are availed for rent and are popular among groupies. They’re very few onsite and not reserved in advance (only served on a first come, first serve basis) To be honest, they’re pricey, but based on the value you receive, it’s worth every penny!
● If your kids are the kind to nag you for a souvenir bottle, then be sure to get it at the start of the day thank me for later for the regular drink refills in the course of the day as temperatures start rising.
● Be sure to take your shoes with you around the park. Some surfaces are not heat treated and you definitely don’t want to hurt your feet.
