💡 Water Play Tips

1. Be sure to apply sunscreen when playing outdoors, and prepare swimwear, waterproof bags, sun hats, and flip-flops.
2. There is a large temperature difference between day and night at the seaside beach, so bring a light jacket for the evening; some water park projects prohibit wearing accessories.
3. There is a large flow of people during holidays, so it is recommended to travel off-peak. Popular parks can be booked online in advance.
