Water Park Near HSR Layout: Water World at Fun World, 15 km Away

Water World at Fun World is about 15 km from HSR Layout, 45 to 75 minutes by cab to Palace Grounds. There are around 45 water attractions, open from 10:30 AM to 4:30 PM. Adults pay ₹999 online and children ₹799, and that also covers the amusement park rides.

HSR Layout has plenty of gyms and cafés and very little open water. Water World at Fun World is about 15 km away at Palace Grounds, 45 to 75 minutes by cab through Koramangala.

It's a regular summer plan for families from Agara and Parangi Palya, and for groups of friends from the startups along the Outer Ring Road at Bellandur.

The pools run from 10:30 AM to 4:30 PM: a wave pool, a lazy river, multi-lane slides and splash pools, with lifeguards on every attraction. If your week is flexible, go midweek. The pools are calmer, and on Wednesdays, FUNWEDNESDAY gives two women aged 18 and above one ticket.

What you'll find at Water World

There are about 45 water attractions. For thrills, there's the Tsunami (ride it early, before the queue builds) and the Shark Ride. For racing your friends to the bottom, there are multi-lane slides. For floating, there's the wave pool and the lazy river, and for small children, splash pools and a toddler zone.

Lifeguards are posted at every water attraction. Cabana seating at Water World gives parents and grandparents a shaded place to sit with the bags.

The full list is on the Water World page.

Leaving HSR Layout: plan around the 4:30 PM closing

Water World keeps shorter hours than the rest of Fun World: 10:30 AM to 4:30 PM. To get the full six hours from HSR Layout, leave by 9:15 AM. Your ticket still covers the dry rides until 7 PM, so there's no rush to leave once the pools shut.

From HSR, a Wednesday is the sweet spot for a water park day. The pools are quieter than at weekends, and two women aged 18 and above can go on one ticket with FUNWEDNESDAY if they book a day ahead.

Why weekday mornings are calmer

If your work schedule bends, the quietest time at Water World is a weekday between 10:30 and 12:30. The wave pool isn't crowded, the slide stairs move quickly, and the changing rooms have no queue.

From HSR, a weekday mid-morning drive is also shorter than a Saturday one. The online price is the same ₹999 every day, so you don't pay more for the better experience. On Wednesdays specifically, women aged 18 and above can pair up on one ticket. See the Wednesday women's offer for conditions.

The route from HSR Layout to Water World

Approximate distance	15 km by road
Typical travel time	45–75 min
Best route	Through Koramangala to Hosur Road and Richmond Road, then Queen's Road and Cantonment to Jayamahal Road
Public transport	Cab is simplest; metro possible via the Yellow Line with two changes
Leave by	9:15 AM to reach the 10:30 AM opening

The drive goes through Koramangala to Hosur Road and Richmond Road into the centre, then Queen's Road and Cantonment to Jayamahal Road. It's 45 minutes early on a weekend and up to 75 on a weekday afternoon. The metro is possible from the Yellow Line station near HSR, but with changes at RV Road and Majestic it's slower than a cab for most people.

These are typical daytime timings, and weekend afternoons run longer. Find the entrance and map on the directions page.

What to bring, and what you can't wear

Two things trip people up at the gate. First, swimwear must be 100% nylon. Cotton T-shirts, sarees, churidars, pyjamas and burkhas aren't allowed on the slides. Second, the locker deposit is ₹500 in cash only. The locker itself is free and you get the money back, but UPI won't work.

Beyond that, pack a towel and dry clothes, sunscreen, and lunch if you want to save money, since outside food is allowed. Changing rooms get busiest between 11:30 and 1, so arriving at opening helps.

Bringing children from HSR Layout

A child's ticket covers anyone between 80 cm and 140 cm, and children under 80 cm go free. Height matters inside too. Some slides need 122 cm (48 inches) or more, and each ride posts its own limit at the queue, so check before a younger child gets their hopes up. The splash pools, the lazy river and the toddler zone have no such worry.
