Seven Attractions Recreating Classic One Piece Scenes
Ocean Park’s “Ultimate One Piece Water War” this summer will take place at the Waterfront Plaza where it will recreate scenes from One Piece’s epic water battle – the Battle of Marineford. Guests and their friends can form a group of eight to enter the attraction to board the Thousand.Sunny and join the Straw Hat crew to battle against the Marines. With water guns in their hands, they will pass through a mysterious waterfall, a water jet tunnel, a water cave, a jet maze and other challenges, all the while getting soaking wet from head to toe thanks to the Marines’ water cannons and sudden attacks!
 
Guests who want to meet their favourite One Piece characters could take advantage of photo opportunities with Luffy, Chopper and others at the “Straw Hat Crew Meet-Up”, held daily at the Waterfront Plaza.  More classic scenes from One Piece including the “Thousand.Sunny’s Figurehead” at Aqua City near the entrance, which will surely intrigue fans about setting sail for the Grand Line. The Waterfront Plaza’s “Bounty Posters” will feature interactive water elements for fans to have fun and take photos, giving them a taste of life as a pirate with a bounty on their head; as cool water pours out with a great splash from the gigantic “Luffy’s Straw Hat”, guests will be left screaming with excitement. Last but not least, the energised dance moves and water surprises from the “Splashtastic Summer Dance Party” will immerse everyone in a dynamic summer celebration.
 
Kids can also become junior pirates during Ocean Park Summer Water Battle. Decorations at Whisker’s Harbour will feature One Piece characters in ‘chibi’ style, and kids will be able to challenge the straw hat water-mist arches, super water curtains and fountains or even by starting a water gun war with their friends at the “Little Pirates’ Splash Zone”.  They can join Luffy and his crew at the “Little Pirates’ Foamy Fun Party” as well to deepen their friendship with fellow pirates while surrounded by foamy bubbles.
