Splash Pads in South Korea

Many cities and private malls across South Korea have invested in splash pads to help families beat the summer heat. Splash pads are often free to use and very popular with community families.

Splash Pad Seasonal Operation Hours

The splash park schedules may vary depending on if they are city or privately owned:

  • City-run splash pads often run on a schedule with limited times each day during July and August. Cities often post the splash pad hours on signs near the splash parks.
  • Privately owned malls may operate their splash pads in June, July, and August.

Finding Splash Pads in South Korea

However, many splash pads are not clearly noted in Naver Maps. You may find some by searching 물놀이, 물놀이장, or 물장구. This means we need to rely on our local communities to find access to splash pads in our region.

That said, some city governments document the publicly managed splash pads (물놀이) on their websites. Using the Naver Search portal may help you find splash pads via such city websites or community bloggers.

Korean Splash Pad Culture Notes and Rules

Also, and this is a big one, we have included Cultural Notes in each splash pad listing so you can better understand the social rules associated with splash pads and don’t get caught off guard. Knowing what’s expected ahead of time will help you feel more comfortable and have a stress-free playtime:
