Tips & Tricks from Real Parents
Do the water park in the morning when it opens at 10am before the afternoon crowds arrive because by 1pm the wave pool is shoulder-to-shoulder.
The Fury of the Canyon roller coaster requires 130cm minimum. Measure your kids at the entrance before queuing.
Pack water shoes since the concrete paths get scorching hot by noon in summer.
Bring your own towels and sunscreen as on-site prices are three times regular retail.

A Real Parent's Story
The lazy river broke our 7-year-old's fear of water
“He would not put his face in a pool. Three hours on inflatable tubes and he is doing cannonballs.”
Read full story
My son has always been terrified of water. Bath time is a struggle. But the lazy river at OCT East changed something. The current is gentle, the water is shallow enough to stand, and everyone is floating on tubes. After 30 minutes he stopped gripping my arm. By hour two he was trying to splash me. It was not really a park visit, it was therapy.
