Getting to LEGOLAND Water Park Dubai: Location & Directions

Where is LEGOLAND Water Park Dubai?

LEGOLAND Water Park Dubai sits inside the Dubai Parks and Resorts complex in Jebel Ali, on Sheikh Zayed Road (E11).

Address: Dubai Parks and Resorts, Sheikh Zayed Road, Jebel Ali, Dubai, UAE | Find on maps

The park is roughly 20 minutes from Dubai Marina, 30 minutes from JBR, and 40–50 minutes from Downtown Dubai and Deira by car. It's positioned between the city and Abu Dhabi, on the south-western fringe of Dubai, closer to the Abu Dhabi border than to Dubai's central districts.

Once you arrive at Dubai Parks and Resorts, follow the walkway through Riverland Dubai to reach the LEGOLAND Water Park gate. Allow 10–12 minutes on foot from the general car park.

Walking and cycling to LEGOLAND Water Park Dubai

The park's location in Jebel Ali makes walking or cycling from central Dubai impractical — the nearest residential areas are several kilometres away along Sheikh Zayed Road, which has no dedicated cycling infrastructure in this stretch. There are no cycling lanes between the park and Dubai Marina or JBR.
