The park is built on an area that historically served as the Ade Irma Suryani Traffic Park before its transition into a modern water-focused recreation center.
The signature ship-shaped building, often called the 'Resto Kapal', is designed to mimic a large ocean liner positioned as if docked at the park's edge.
Because of its location on the coast, the park offers unobstructed views of the sunset over the Java Sea.
The complex integrates a 'cottage' section, allowing guests to stay overnight in structures positioned directly over the water.
The water used in the park's primary pools is sourced and treated to support recreational use alongside the natural saltwater environment of the coastline.
Waterland Cirebon is a waterfront recreational park located directly on the coast of the Java Sea in Cirebon. The park features multiple swimming pools, including a dedicated water play area for children and a lazy river. Its most distinctive feature is a large, shiplike structure that serves as a restaurant, positioned prominently near the shoreline. The site incorporates walking paths, gazebos, and coastal views of the Cirebon harbor area. Visitors can access a variety of slides and water-based amenities designed for families. The facility is situated on land reclaimed or integrated into the coastal zone of the Lemahwungkuk district.

Bring a change of clothes and a waterproof bag for your belongings, as locker availability can be limited during peak weekends.
Prioritize visiting the ship-shaped restaurant early to secure a window seat with direct views of the sea.
Sun protection is essential, as the park features minimal natural shade along the open pool decks.
Do not visit during heavy rain, as outdoor water activities and coastal boardwalk areas may be restricted or slippery.
Modest swimwear is expected in accordance with local cultural norms in West Java; cover-ups should be worn when walking outside of the pool areas.
