the biggest water park in Shanghai
One of two big water parks in Shanghai, located right next to Happy Valley. The park design is world class, with a dozen full-sized water slides, kids areas, cute stone sculptures of dragons and worms, a giant Mayan god who dumps water on everyone, "scuba diving" in what looks like a dirty fishtank with some Mayan relics, manmade bat caves and showers shaped like giant Sprite fountain dispensers, and acres of high quality stone flooring. Food is not great. Only open during the summer. Shanghai Playa Maya Water Park, also known as Maya Beach Water Park (玛雅海滩水公园 in Chinese), is located at the south-west areas of the Happy Valley theme park. The water park occupies an area of 12.8 hectares (31.6 acres) and can accommodate more than 26,000 visitors per day. The size and infrastructure of the park allow to host about 14,000 people simultaneously in one hour. Based on the energy-saving principle, the facilities are run by the power of water, which consumes only 25% electricity of the traditional over-water roller coasters. #urbanexplorer

Summer Symphony of Water: Fun Times at Shanghai Maya Beach
Stepping into Shanghai Maya Beach Water Park feels like entering a world filled with laughter and coolness. Despite the scorching sun, the splashes and clear water in the park make you instantly forget the heat. The winding water slides, accompanied by screams and laughter, see visitors sliding down rapidly from heights in various postures, with water splashing everywhere, providing both excitement and joy. Meanwhile, the lazy river meanders gently, with soft currents lifting rubber rafts, allowing you to feel relaxed and leisurely, as if time flows slowly with the water.
At the wave pool, artificial waves come one after another, resembling a real beach. Everyone dances with the waves, enjoying the fun of getting wet. The park also features exotic facilities, with uniquely designed buildings and coconut trees creating a tropical island vibe.
Spending a day here, relaxing in the water, and unwinding both body and mind, the experience of passion and coolness intertwined makes it hard to leave. The joy at Shanghai Maya Beach Water Park is like a summer symphony of water, refreshing and full of vitality.

Want to save money by grabbing early bird tickets? Start following the Maya public account in May, don't be slow! It's safer to confirm receipt after entering the park. Parking fees are a bit high? Why not drive to Sheshan Metro Station and take the free shuttle bus to the park, which can save you some parking fees.

3-year-old cub plays at night | Countdown to summer water fun ing
🌈A summer without playing in the water💦 is incomplete. If you ask which place in Shanghai is the best for water fun, Maya is definitely at the top of the list. Before, mom👩 was always worried about the water quality, whether it would cause itching, sickness, etc., so it was not on the itinerary. This time, dad insisted on going, so the kid had to accompany dad. As a result, there was no discomfort at all
🤔Considering it's all outdoors, we chose to enter the park after 4 pm (Nini just finished her nap and was fully charged🔋)
✅Reasons for recommendation:
1️⃣After 4:30 pm, people gradually leave, parking spaces🈶️are available, you can directly park in the underground garage according to the navigation, no need to find a parking space everywhere
2️⃣The big pools are warm at night, so you don't have to worry about catching a cold. It's much warmer in the water than walking on the road after getting wet
3️⃣The daytime sun☀️is too strong, it's easy to get sunburned in this weather outdoors
4️⃣Children should not soak in the water for too long, 3-4h is the limit
✅Recommended activities for children under 1.2m
1️⃣Caribbean Beach: A huge wave pool, waves are made every half an hour. After 15:00 in the afternoon, there is an electronic music party, very exciting
⚠️Note, the last wave is at 17:00, after that it's just small waves in a cycle♻️, not much ups and downs, but it's enough for the cubs to play
2️⃣Maya Water Village (100cm⬆️), excitement index⭐️⭐️⭐️
High-altitude water pouring, large and small slides are available, adults are also playing, dad and brother are very hi, Nini refuses❌
3️⃣Happy Water World, excitement index⭐️⭐, more suitable for older children
4️⃣Happy Jungle➡️Deep Sea Mystery➡️Animal Kingdom➡️Jumping Area, excitement index⭐️
Suitable for small children to play in the water, the water depth varies from 0.3-0.5m, various small slides🛝 and water spraying devices (some have canopies)
5️⃣Lazy River: Suitable for all ages, basically no ups and downs, very leisurely
✅Must bring:
1️⃣Waterproof phone case
2️⃣Sun hat for girls
3️⃣River tracing shoes or slippers (🩴can only be worn to the entrance of each project)
4️⃣Children's swimming goggles, swimsuit🩱, swimming ring🛟 (the ones for rent are all big rings)
5️⃣Bathing supplies, bath towels (it's a bit cold after getting out of the water at night, it can keep warm + wipe the body)
6️⃣Water, small snacks (security checks basically don't look)
✅Must spend💰:
1️⃣🎫Must buy tickets one day in advance, a lot of discounts
2️⃣Ordinary locker 30💰or VIP room 98r/person, children under 1.2cm are free🆓, drinks, snacks, and bathing supplies are provided. If you bring a child, just buy a VIP room, dad can make do with the free ones downstairs
3️⃣Swimming ring single person 30r, double person 70r (only used in the Lazy River and Caribbean Beach, mainly for mom to sit, Nini prefers her own)
✅About safety
👉Water quality will be displayed directly on the big screen
👉Children under 120cm need to wear a safety vest🆓 when entering the drift and artificial wave pool (didn't see obvious mold spots)
👉There are a lot of water safety officers, thinking about how mom👩 was knocked over and fell into the water by other swimming rings in the artificial wave pool a few years ago and almost drowned🤦♀️, it's very reassuring to see so many lifeguards now

Summer Water Fun💦: A Guide to Shanghai Maya Beach Water Park for Toddlers!
🏝 My teammates and I have frequented the Maya Beach Water Park numerous times, and the memory of getting stuck in the 🐍 Speedy Water Python due to insufficient weight is still vivid! We've experienced all the adult attractions multiple times, and they are truly exhilarating and thrilling! 🤩
💦 We have a water-loving creature at home, and this summer vacation, we brought her to the Maya Water Park for the first time! After returning from Singapore and Malaysia two months ago, her 👧🏽 skin has already turned quite tanned. Continuing outdoor water activities might just be a case of letting things take their course! 🤣
🏷️ Essential items:
1️⃣ Beach/Snorkeling shoes: No need to remove shoes when entering the water or participating in activities. Barefoot in summer is unbearable!
2️⃣ Towel: The park's changing room does not provide towels, so bring your own to dry off.
3️⃣ Swimsuit: We recommend long-sleeved swimsuits, as even on ⛅ cloudy days, UV rays can be intense!
4️⃣ Waterproof phone case: Protect your phone and take 📸 photos!
5️⃣ Sunscreen: A must-have! It's not the tan we fear in summer, but the pain of sunburn. 😣
6️⃣ Swim ring: Children's swim rings can be brought, but there's no place to inflate them.
7️⃣ Water gun: How can you play with water without a 🔫?
🧳 Locker rental: 💰 30 yuan, deposit 20 yuan. The changing room has 🚿 shower cubicles and provides shampoo and shower gel. You can place your change of clothes on the nearby bench.
✨ Recommended attractions for children under 120cm:
✅ Lazy River: A leisurely activity where you lie on a swim ring and float. Suitable for all ages. Life jackets are provided at the entrance. Swim ring rental is 30 for single, 70 for double, and 2 yuan/hour after 4 hours.
✅ Caribbean Beach: A giant wave pool, much larger than Sun Island's. Make sure to put a life jacket on your child, as the waves can be quite big! There's a wet water gun dance at 15:00, and a summer electronic music wave party at night (17:15/18:30/20:00). The music is very dynamic, and everyone gets excited!
✅ Havana Challenge: Located on the other side of the Caribbean Beach, this is an inflatable water obstacle course suitable for children to climb and challenge. We've played countless times!
✅ Magic Water City: This area is mainly a parent-child water play area with a sunshade. The play areas include Maya Camp, Happy Jungle, Deep Sea Mystery, Animal Kingdom, and Jumping Zone. There are many slides and water sprays, and children can have a blast!
✅ B.Duck Meet and Greet: There are many cute little yellow ducks in the park, perfect for children to take photos! B.Duck appears at the North Star Square every day (13:30/15:00/16:30) for photo ops with children!

Day-tripping at Happy Valley's water park down in Songjiang. POV Go-Pro videos, stories, and a full review inside. Big fun. This place is a modern water park with Chinese and Mayan characteristics, located at Happy Valley in Shanghai's southwest suburbs. They have a dozen full-sized water slides, a lame "wave" pool filled with a sub-district worth of people and a student rock band playing on the edge, slides for kids, cute stone sculptures of dragons and worms, some Filipinos dressed as Mayans (really???), a giant Mayan god who dumps water on everyone, "scuba diving" in what looks like a dirty fishtank with some Mayan relics, manmade bat caves and showers shaped like giant Sprite fountain dispensers, and acres of high quality stone flooring.
Big fun to be had at Playa Maya. A fine day trip. Here's the best rides.
