Adding Legoland Water Park to Your Johor Bahru Travel Itinerary

Lately, I’ve been hammering out posts about Legoland Malaysia in Johor Bahru, including a nod to the water park in this world-class entertainment complex. But this post dives deeper into Legoland Water Park, so you can slot it into your Johor Bahru travel plans.

Legoland Water Park in Malaysia

Legoland Water Park sits within the Legoland Resort Malaysia cluster. It’s got a massive wave pool—perfect for kicking back and relaxing like you’re on a legit beach vacay. Plus, there’s a ton of fun water games and activities that hook not just kids but most grown-ups too: lazy river floats, wild tube slides, you name it. Asia’s biggest water park, it spans 3.2 million square feet (300,000m²), with 20 water-based rides and nearly 100 models made from thousands of colorful Lego bricks.

Unlike your average water park, Legoland Water Park’s built with Lego flair—those bricks are everywhere, on land and in the water. They drift with you down the lazy river or pile up at the Build-a-Raft River, where visitors, especially kids, can craft their own foam Lego rafts and float around the park.

Legoland Water Park Tickets

Though it’s part of Legoland Resort Malaysia, Legoland Water Park has its own area and ticket gate. Tickets are sold separately to fit your needs, but combo deals are cheaper than buying for each zone on its own.

At the Legoland counter, it’s 35 USD (146 RM, ~800,000 VND) for adults and 29 USD (120 RM, ~670,000 VND) for kids. But snag them on Klook here, and prices drop—around 24 USD (600,000 VND) for adults and 20 USD (500,000 VND) for kids (as of my trip, October 2019).

Real talk: nobody hits Legoland Resort Malaysia just for the water park. My top tip? Grab a 1-day or 2-day pass for unlimited access to both Legoland Theme Park and Legoland Water Park. A 1-day pass is about 56 USD (1.4 million VND), with free in-and-out privileges. Bonus: that 1-day combo also gets you into SEA Life Aquarium for free.

Here’s the breakdown if you buy separately on Klook:

• Legoland Theme Park 1-day: 35 USD (880,000 VND) per adult
• Legoland Water Park 1-day: 24 USD (600,000 VND) per adult
• SEA Life Aquarium: 16 USD (390,000 VND) per adult
• Total: ~76 USD (1.9 million VND)

The 1-day combo for all three? Just 56 USD (1.4 million VND)—saves a nice chunk, right? Depends on your crew’s vibe, but trust me, buying via my links beats on-site prices every time.

Johor Bahru Travel Tips

Why jump from Legoland Water Park to Johor Bahru tips? They’re tied, I swear! If you’re into Legoland, Johor Bahru’s your landing spot. So, I’m tossing in a quick rundown on Johor Bahru travel know-how to help you plan this city next to Singapore.

Since it’s right by Singapore, you can bus from there straight to Legoland Resort Malaysia—morning out, afternoon back, no sweat. Both countries are visa-free for Vietnamese, so border stamps are all you need. Check bus ticket info here—cheap, just 8 USD (200,000 VND) to cross two nations.

Johor Bahru pulls shoppers from Indonesia and Singapore—prices beat Singapore’s hands down. But tourism here? Not huge—it’s more an industrial hub. That’s why Malaysia’s government has pushed local-style tourism to juice it up.

Desaru Fruit Farm’s one example. Seven years back, my first Johor Bahru trip, I hit this fruit farm for kicks. It’s like Vietnam’s Mekong Delta orchards but slicker—organized tours, local fruit tasting, and activity packages for visitors.

Desaru Beach? Famous and luxe, perfect for upscale relaxation. But it’s an hour’s drive from Johor Bahru’s airport, far from the center. Honestly, I’d skip it for Legoland Water Park instead.

One more spot for your Johor Bahru list: Johor Premium Outlets (JPO)—Southeast Asia’s high-end shopping mecca. Join their VIP Club for killer deals. Alright, happy travels to Johor Bahru—make it a blast!
