Short answer: a Water Kingdom ticket booked online on the official website costs ₹1,280 for adults and ₹1,097 for children under the current Splash Offer (the official homepage and Splash Offer page, checked 25 October 2026). Two other official pages still show the older online rate of ₹1,180 / ₹997, so check the total at checkout. At the counter the official FAQ lists ₹1,400 adult / ₹1,180 child (Deal of the Day) and a regular price of ₹2,000. Children below 3 ft 3 in enter free. The park is open 10 am to 6 pm, and the Gorai Creek ferry costs ₹100 per person, return.
Last checked: 25 October 2026, on the official Water Kingdom website (waterkingdom.in) and in news from the last 12 months. The official site does not list a weekly closed day, and we found no notice or news report of a closure in October 2026. Prices can change without notice (the park’s own terms say so). This guide is not based on a personal visit.
Water Kingdom ticket price 2026 at a glance
| Ticket | Adult (above 4 ft 6 in) | Child (3 ft 3 in to 4 ft 6 in) | Where to buy | Basis (checked 25 Oct 2026) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Splash Offer (online) | ₹1,280 | ₹1,097 | waterkingdom.in only | Official homepage and Splash Offer page (struck-out price ₹2,000 / ₹1,800) |
| Older online rate still shown on two official pages | ₹1,180 | ₹997 | waterkingdom.in | Official ticket-price page and FAQ (“from 1 April 2026”); the same rate was a “Mega Splash” offer valid till 22 June 2026 |
| Deal of the Day (counter) | ₹1,400 | ₹1,180 | Park ticket counter | Official FAQ price table |
| Regular ticket (counter) | ₹2,000 | ₹2,000 | Park ticket counter | Official FAQ price table |
| Below 3 ft 3 in | Free | – | Official FAQ and park terms | |
Entry is decided by height, not age. The official site does not publish a senior-citizen rate, so the old “₹900 senior ticket” figures that circulate online could not be confirmed and are not used here.
Which price will you actually pay?
On 25 October 2026 the official website showed two online rates. The homepage, the Offers page and the Splash Offer page show ₹1,280 adult / ₹1,097 child. The ticket-price page and the FAQ page still say ₹1,180 / ₹997 and describe it as the rate “from 1st April 2026”. A separate official offer page lists ₹1,180 / ₹997 as a “Mega Splash” offer with “visit valid till 22nd June 2026”, which suggests the lower rate was a summer price. We could not open the booking engine (booking.waterkingdom.in) from our location to see the final checkout total, so treat ₹1,280 / ₹1,097 as the current online price and confirm the total, including any taxes or fees, before you pay.

Water Kingdom timings and season
- Park hours: 10 am to 6 pm; the management may extend them (official ticket-price page and FAQ).
- Closed day: none published on the official site.
- Is it open in October 2026? The official site is selling tickets and showing current offers, and we found no closure notice or news report for October 2026. Rides can be stopped without notice for safety or maintenance (official FAQ).
- Best time: the park’s own guide calls April to June its busiest, liveliest months and says monsoon visits are “generally not ideal” because rain can affect outdoor rides. After the monsoon (October to February) is usually calmer; arrive at opening time on weekends.
The official site lists two new rides, Cyclone Twist and Anaconda Crush, as “now open”.

How to reach Water Kingdom
Address (official): Water Kingdom by EsselWorld, Global Pagoda Road, Gorai, Borivali West, Mumbai, Maharashtra 400091. Phone +91 22 6953 7011.
- Train + bus + ferry: get off at Borivali station (Western line), take bus 294 (or an auto) from the west side to Gorai Creek, about 5 km, then the park ferry. The crossing takes 15 to 20 minutes. The official location page gives ferry hours of 9 am to 8 pm, and the FAQ says ferries run until the last guests leave.
- From Bhayandar: MBMT bus no. 4 (official FAQ).
- By road: Western Express Highway → Kashimira → Mira-Bhayandar road → Uttan → Gorai. The park says it takes about 30 to 45 minutes from Kashimira.
Mid-day reported construction of a new Ro-Ro jetty for the public Borivali–Gorai ferry in January and March 2026. That is a separate public service; we found no report that it affected the park ferry.
